Reviews

"The book can also be used for training purposes and provides an exemplar structure of a motivation skills training day. It provides clear instructions and ideas for applying this book in a training session and gives ideas of exercises and discussion points. This is a great addition to the book and would benefit anyone providing training in this field, helping them to feel confident in delivery with less planning" - Rosie Williams
