Flávio Matos
I attended a 5-day workshop from Gonçalo. He puts a lot of effort and creativity into his preparation and makes every session interesting. As a trainer, he is a great facilitator and a patient listener. I liked in his sessions how he visualized evidence-based models and made us understand difficult topics easily. He can easily engage everyone in his sessions. I appreciated a lot the reflection time where he invited us, participants, to share thoughts and step out of our comfort zone.

The session is more interesting for participants that work or are passionate about the areas of learning, training and education; but others can also benefit from it.
