FEEDBACK ON IIDA'S EXECUTIVE TRAININGS

 ”Very professional, knowledgeable and great presentation skills. Overall great structure in the session, thanks! Psychological context to challenges that I’ve personally been dealing with in my life recently. Tools to improve.”

 

”I enjoyed Iida’s training a lot. She approached this important theme holistically and in a way that gave insight both to my work life and life as a whole. It was great that we could discuss together and Iida could weave our perspectives into the whole. She exuded expertise. You could feel that she knows what she is talking about – both through her education, but also through experience.”

 

 

”Iida’s training day was excellent, exciting, professional, fact-based and at the same time entertaining, thanks to Iida’s personality. Like I mentioned it was and is very important to discuss these topics with the whole group and bringing these subjects into collective awareness. I would like to add how well this day created a sense of ”we” and strengthened a feeling of belonging while at the same time being very informative and to the point.”

 

”Big thank you for the very sobering training. Got me to reflect on myself. Iida could integrate theory and science but bring it down to the everyday. Her way of presenting is very natural and energizing. She was not too attached to her own material, but lived with us in the moment and directed the conversation well. Very good at answering questions and creating discussion. Excellent!”

If Insurance / Skills for recovery and work-life balance in demanding knowledge work

Everyday work in marketing at If is intensive and fast-paced. People are conscientious and ambitious toward their work. We wanted to provide skills and tools to enable recovery and better work-life balance in this demanding environment. Iida Mäkikallio held a training program for our whole team and executives that received exceptionally good feedback from our experts. 

Iida’s approach that included dealing with the psychological and emotional stressors at work, was perfectly catered for the type of work we do. In the trainings we discussed eg. work habits that enable a more restful mind, relationship to rest and work, dealing with emotions regarding ongoing organizational changes, team practices, ways of working and communication.

This training was very needed and valuable for our team and we would absolutely recommend Iida as a trainer for companies looking to develop their teams’ and executives’ skills to support work-life balance and develop relational and emotional skills.
