ABOUT CLIVE VANDERWAGEN AND READYPEOPLE
My first job was in a call centre. I cried every day on the way to work. You were screamed at by your managers for not making targets and were only given a chair to sit on if you made a sale. It was cold calling hell.
But I learnt...
✅ that customers don’t like speaking to a robot throwing a sales pitch at them.
✅ about the power of connecting with your customer and team, rather than focusing purely on the job at hand.
✅ what makes a work environment toxic.
Since then I've worked in a number of different industries and roles, and even sat on the Exco of a blue chip company. But what I learnt in that call centre is the foundation for what I do.

We have all sat down for a training session before, expecting to hear more of the same rhetoric on how to be better. Clive managed to change that for me.
He is insightful and engaged openly on the topic. His manner of communicating succeeded in getting my entire team involved.
I look forward to seeing the development and growth in my team, as well as their respective teams in the future!

Our training session with Clive was insightful and informative. His presentation style is engaging and the material is fascinating.
My team and I learned so much about ourselves, how we relate to others and we gained valuable skills necessary for functioning effectively as a team, but also knowledge we can apply to life in general.
A real eye opener. Highly recommended!

We had the pleasure of working with Clive on a Future Leader programme. Not only did he draw on his extensive experience to bring context and meaning to the work, but provided practical tools and enabled the group to develop a narrative around how they show up in the workplace. This proved vital for the group as a base for engagement and further reflection.
Clive’s energy and sense of humour was adored by all as he created memorable, impactful learning in the virtual classroom.

I cannot explain step by step how Clive helped me, but over the course of 3 sessions, he opened my mind to new ways of thinking and new ways of looking at my own unique situation.
Our journey is not yet over, but Clive, thank you, the impact that you have had on me is immeasurable and I look forward to carrying on with this journey of self discovery and improvement under your guidance.

The coaching experience was profound, and life-changing. Clive has a rare gift to interpret people and situations with uncanny accuracy.
He delivers his insights delicately and always made me feel positive about the upheaval taking place in my mind.
He gave me guidance and a set of tools to deal with certain issues and he set me on a path to self-improvement
