16. “We contracted Biz-Guru group of companies for this facilitation process.
During this time the team displayed excellent knowledge of the
facilitating process and succeeded to create clarity in our minds. We
worked through a lot of detail and ended up with an enthusiastic plan for
our new company with clearly defined roles of the key players with a
project plan and tasks and objectives.
Their team has a good understanding of each other’s skills and are able
to interact and facilitate sometime tricky situations very well. We are still
busy with the plan and have seen good progress on all tasks as all
members have a good and clear ownership of their different roles and
tasks. I can recommend any team needing this kind of process
facilitation to make use of the Biz-Guru group of companies team. We
surely enjoyed it tremendously to work with them.”

Testimonials

17. “Biz-Guru provided us with year on year growth, since contracting
them during 2012. We aimed for a 26% growth within the
business and they delivered more.
The company went from 26 - 36 Mil to 54 – 68 Mil and produced
a tremendous amount of pressure within the business. Biz-Guru’s
team assisted, focused, drove and held the environment for us
during this pressure period.
Our clients in the mining industry were experiencing budget cuts,
strikes and yet we were growing year on year! Before contracting
Biz-Guru, we were consistently growing at a 16% annual growth.
Biz-Guru’s focus included clarity, sales training, Emotional
Intelligence training, sales and executive coaching and above all
change management.”
