The bottom line is, Dr Peter Shephard, got us all engaged throughout the day and I was not looking at my watch, like other courses. The Personality Profile test is the most interesting part. As we were seated in tables of 6 (good size for knowing each other) we poked fun at each other's colors (personality) and learned about ourselves without being embarrassed. I am recommending it to my friends in the stock broking industry as I feel it should help us understand our strengths and weaknesses, not only in our work under extreme market conditions but also in dealing with our clients. I look forward to attending more of Deakin's courses of a similar nature. Thanks for the good time I had!

The program is essential to all, because it teaches you to know yourself as well as people around you and especially your clients in business per say.

You will find it handy to get things done if you could use it on your subordinates or peers.

Profiling on yourself and your counterpart can come in handy during negotiations. I would suggest for my peers to attend this program.

The day's training was a breath of fresh air. The Speaker knew his material well and was able to draw upon the varied input of his audience to provide a rich, holistic learning experience. In my opinion, the information gleaned from him on peak performance and from his numerous application sessions will make me more sensitive to expectations of potential and existing clients. I suspect it is likely I will gain at least 900% return on my modest course fee, by way of increased revenue in the coming 12 months, from the applied knowledge gained.

Thank you, DEAKIN, for crafting this amazing learning opportunity for Malaysian financial professionals.

All this while, I always perceived that the right attitude and complete knowledge are crucial for a person to become a peak performer. After attending the Speaker's training session, my perception has now totally changed. To maintain and sustain peak performance, one has to practice all psychological traits as introduced by the Speaker.

Also, a sincere thanks to DEAKIN for its continuous strive to provide the best practical training for Malaysian financial professionals.

The program provides insight to a side of investment logic which is often overlooked or totally ignored by the Malaysian corporate. The content is invaluable for understanding investment market movement or understanding individual behaviors for banks to decide on product development, customer focus or investment decisions. Delivered in an interesting manner as well!

Mohamad Zailan Bin Abdul Ghafur
Senior Manager

The program serves as a reminder of how one behaves naturally not only in investment but also in day to day activities or interaction with each other. The course also makes us think in the investor's context to try to provide a more suitable solution for the investors.

It is useful to understand the concepts introduced in the course. Hope we can apply the concepts learned today in our day to day business operations as well as in personal investments for maximizing wealth.
