“Scott Taylor’s experience in profiling and interpretation of body language was translated into practical tips with interactive learning for the team to utilise in their day-to- day customer and team interactions.The VR component was incredible. The team was able to utilise VR headsets to practice conflict resolution in bar scenarios in a safe environment rather than practicing live on the job. This amplified and consolidated the learning to ensure the team received full benefit from the training.”

“Scott’s training was one of the most valuable sessions our team has experienced. His professionalism, engaging delivery, and ability to involve every participant made the content land in a powerful way. Staff walked away with real life skills in situational awareness, identifying behavioural triggers, and confidently managing potential conflict. It wasn’t just theory, it was practical, relevant, and immediately applicable. I highly recommend Scott Taylor to anyone..”
