“The feedback from the Marketing PAs was overwhelmingly
positive. We had control of the format and the content that we wanted
delivered. Rosemary responded to our needs and we found our two half day
sessions not only well presented, informative and full of good tips but also
left us feeling very positive about ourselves and our roles. The continuing
contact through the newsletters and the excellent website means that we can
continue to progress”.

Masterclass Testimonials
‘I found the Masterclass very thought provoking and stimulating and I think you and Sue did a wonderful job of maintaining the group’s interest and participation.’ Gillian, Royal Bank of Scotland.
‘The workshop provided an opportunity to re-focus on the professionalism and changing demands of the senior secretarial/PA role which is often overlooked when we spend our time helping our managers to achieve their objectives. Rosemary’s own experiences at senior level gave an added depth and enabled her to empathise with our situations. The sessions were well structured and stimulating and I would encourage anyone who gets the opportunity to attend to do so.’ Diane
‘I found the Masterclass extremely useful, it was great to be able to interact and the presenters were excellent. The mix of people was very interesting and gave me a much better vision of how PAs in different companies operate. At a difficult time in my career the Masterclass re-energised me completely. Overall it was a very well organised and stimulating day and I took away a lot of useful tips, and got a really good idea of how I’m being perceived by others. I would like to wish Rosemary and her team a lot of success and compliment them on what they have achieved so far’. Kathleen, BT Global Services
'The course came at just the right time for me as our organisation will be undergoing significant change in the next six mnths. To have a day out from the usual demands of a busy office environment gave me some valuable thinking time, and the course has provided me with some excellent tools with which to begin to think through and plan for the next steps in my career. It was also valuable to meet up with senior PAs working in similar roles.' Judith, ngage solutions ltd
'Than you Rosemary for a thought provoking and lively day - really enjoyed meeting you, Jane and Sue. It was also a great opportunity to take time out of work and meet other PAs and understand some of the issues they have to overcome and I thought we were a very diverse group which made the daya very worthwhile. I am convinced that everyone left feeling positively focused - I know I certainly did.' Jenny, Waitrose
'I left the Masterclass feeling upbeat and motivated having spent a brilliant day taking part in the workshops and networking with other PAs from organisations around the UK. It was just what I needed!' Jacaqui - Sanctuary Housing
'I met my own objective for the day in that it gave me plenty of thought to refocus my attention on certain aspects of my role. I thought the smaller group worked well as everyone had an opportunity to be involved at some point during the day and have a say. I found the coaching session useful and I would like to do more work in this area. I am now better armed to refocus my attention and I am setting some realistic targets for myself both in my PA role and my personal targets. The Personal Branding session gave very useful feedback from other delegates and I can build on this and be more aware of how important it is to give the right impression and the impact on people you come across both in work environment and personal situations'. Elaine, Openreach
'A thought provoking and inspiring day - a good balance of professional and personal development activities'. Vicky, Oxera
'I really enjoyed the day, it was motivational and very energising. The number of attendees was perfect and the task really got you thinking outside the box. I found it a breath of fresh air - very helpful and forward thinking'. Jean, BT
'My name is Julia and I work as a secretary for Watson Wyatt. I received personal mentoring and coaching from Rosemary Parr to give me more confidence in my role. I found Rosemary extremely approachable and easy to talk to. Since Rosemary has worked in the same field I found her tuition really helpful and I would recommend it to anyone in need of further training in their secretarial/PA role'. Julia, Watson Wyatt
'I found the Masterclass extremely useful, it was great to be able to interact and the presenters were excellent. The mix of people was very interesting and gave me a much better vision of how PAs in different companies operate. At a difficult time in my career, the Masterclass re-energized me completely and it was great to see how determined Rosemary is to put the PA job on the business map! Overall it was a very well organised and stimulating day. I took away a lot of useful tips, got a really good idea of how I'm being perceived by others. Kathleen, BT Global Services
'This is to say thank you for a very stimulating day in a really conducive environment. I very rarely do training courses and this one really hit the spot in terms of making me step out of my role and see how I can improve for my own sake and for those around me. With the help of the skills learned I hope I can build on my role and create the boundaries I need in order to thrive'. Louise, Urenco
'I just wanted to say a big thank you for putting on such a super class last Friday. It was good fun and I learnt a great deal. I can't wait until my boss gets back from his holidays so that I can try out the new tactics that you suggested'. Carole, Mott McDonald
