TROY QUAIFE

WeTrain TRAINER

Troy delivers high energy, high impact, training sessions that ensure everyone is engaged, entertained, challenged, charmed and changing.

For around 30 years, Troy has advocated for organisations to understand that every staff member in their organisation is integral to achieving exceptional results as an organisation. Starting his career in sales, he worked his way up firstly to lead the sales ladders which lead his way to management on the back of his acute awareness of the importance of providing exceptional customer experiences built on trust. His ability to support his team through effective feedback, performance management and mentoring ensured that Troy climbed the corporate ladder as the businesses he worked in also grew.

Troy believes that your ability to manage each individual effectively will take your business to a higher level. This involves regular scheduled, as well as side conversations about how people are genuinely performing – when they are doing well and when they need further development.  When you use the easily implemented techniques, you will build your team to be more effective, which therefore means that you will get better results and a more cohesive team which of course increases the bottom line.

“I make it my priority to understand your business priorities and needs. I am passionate about understanding the ‘ins and outs’ of what your people do, how they do it, why they do it, what challenges they face and how I can help them to provide better experiences internally and externally. I don’t deliver content, I discover people, I walk in their shoes and then I ‘flick switches and turn the lights on” for people so they take away learning that will stay with them forever.” 

“I read the room….I read the people…. I don’t read a script”.

Troy was awarded MBA Trainer of the Year in 2016, co-authored the book “Training Works – Better People, Better Bottom Line” and featured on the TV show “Trainers on Trial”.
