I had the pleasure of working with Jacques both at TelstraClear and Vodafone. Jacques was always professional and responsive and was passionate about his work. Jacques has a great sense of humour and is easy to work with - nothing was ever too much trouble for him. Given this, our team enjoyed working with Jacques and appreciated his assistance.

Jacques is a dynamic leader, he developed my personal sales skills and coached me into a position where I was able to transpose these into training for new sales people in my team. His open door management style has always helped me to over come my personal issues which were affecting my work life balance. His motivational training always helped me and our team to achieve our daily and monthly targets. He has the ability to develop individuals taking them to new levels of achievement personally and for the company. If I compare myself to me 5 years back, I have grown and developed, enabling myself to move forward in my career. Under his guidance and coaching, coupled with world class training I have developed my career. Jacques has created leaders like me and others who worked under him and we have created top sales reps through his guidance.
