"I was a candidate in an assessment process designed by Michelle. The experience was positive and rewarding. Psychometric testing and the one to one feedback provided by Michelle was hugely valuable, for both final interview preparation and personal development.


I was aware of Work Pirates through Michelle and James’ podcast - the opportunity to learn more from Michelle about Work Piracy has been key to me reflecting on my own leadership style; giving me the confidence to explore new waters!"
