Testimonials

  • “I have found Matthew Syed’s presentations clear, compelling and entertaining. In both his presentations and his books he combines hard evidence, strong argument and telling anecdote. He draws on a wide range of fields, including sport and business, and uses language free of jargon. I have never heard the case for a growth mindset or learning from mistakes more effectively made.”
    Sir Michael Barber, Chief Education Advisor, Pearson

    Michael Sherwood, Chief Executive, Goldman Sachs International
