What people are saying about Nick Kemp and Provocative Change Works

“I have known Nick Kemp for several years. I was first introduced to his work through the good offices of Steve Andreas from whom he received the highest recommendation. I finally met Nick in 2006 at the IASH Conference in San Francisco, California. I was immediately impressed by his brilliance, enthusiasm and high ethical standards.
Nick has done the NLP community the great service of interviewing and documenting some of the best minds in the field. His interviews are insightful, probing and excellent sources of information.


I have taken several trainings from Nick, read his materials and listened to several of his DVDs. Every one of his presentations and products meets the highest level of intellectual and practical value. His presentations are well organized, provide clear instructions and provide plenty of room for discussion. In every interaction with him, I have come away richer for it.
I am happy to recommend him as a trainer, teacher, therapist and a friend.” January 11, 2012

“How do you some up Nick in one word - 'remarkable' would be my answer.

I have attended several of Nick's courses over the years and on each occasion I have come away both enlightened and re-energised. Nick's personable approach ensures you always feel welcome and involved. Coupling this with his no-nonsense approach means you learn quickly and get to the heart of any issues quickly and efficiently.

I would best describe him as a stealth 'bomber' trainer, slowly steering you towards the right outcome and then wham making a positive lasting change!

I have used Nick's skills and techniques at numerous times in my own career and in my own business. I am always amazed at how much emotion plays a part in business decisions - using Nick's techniques I guide my clients to the right decision they should be making. To name but one of many in a work environment I have used his techniques to steer around more career and less business focused individuals.

If you haven't been on a Nick Kemp course, you need to...” January 5, 2012

“Unassuming and yet beneath that quite persona there is a depth of knowledge and integrity. Very likable and easily approachable, Nick has that magical knack of making people feel good and his methodology is so easily understood that his workshops are refreshingly effective. I will recommend Nick to anyone wanting to have the tools for a better life.” January 4, 2012

“I organized workshops presented by Nick Kemp in Warsaw. Nick in a brilliant trainer and the creator of Provocative Change Works(TM) - a method that dramatically increases efficiency and speed of personal change work (therapy and coaching). The participants were much more than satisfied.

As the sponsor of the events I honestly recommend Nick. It was a pleasure to work with him as a trainer and do a business with him as a partner.

“I have been an American living in the UK for twenty years. I run a business, and at first found that I was not always achieving the outcomes that I expected with my Clients. Sometimes, things were getting lost in translation. I realised that, especially in England, a lot of communication is coded: words are used carefully and people don't always say what they mean....

My communication needed to be more precise: I needed to notice and understand what others were saying on all levels, and learn to respond to each individually minute signal being sent to me with an appropriate signal in order to make the connections I wanted.

I wanted to find someone who could help me to learn more precise ways of communicating.

I contacted Nick Kemp, and he recommended that I attend an upcoming workshop that he would be running. I did attend, and participated and found it so useful that I attended another, and then another! This man has the power to communicate, and the skill and talent to teach others too.

Nick taught me to listen and hear in a sensitive way, and to look, and see, and fully understand what others are saying. He taught me to slow everything down- I used to rush through things, due to a lack of confidence. Now, I truly understand the value of my own time, and of my own skills. I take the time to listen carefully to what others are saying, and I take all the time I need to formulate a response. It is interesting to notice that when you do this, people will attach more importance to your words, and the whole exchange becomes more respectful and more valuable. I learned to communicate on a lot of levels all at once. It's amazing to truly grasp the power of speaking in plain words and also in metaphor, and to use body language in a way that reinforces your words. People will respond to you with more thought and care, and you will connect with them in the way that you wish.

In an economic boom I was operating like a bull in a china shop, and business was slow. It's now 2012, and we are in global recession, and my business is flourishing, thanks to my precise communication skills.

If you need more Clients, if you need fewer of the right Clients, if you want to sell more, if you want to achieve, if you want to work at your personal relationships, if you want to work on yourself, then do contact Nick and he will have a chat with you to find out how he can help, and be sure to listen, because, honestly, this stuff is gold dust!” January 1, 2012

hired Nick as a Training in 2005, and hired Nick more than once

“I met Nick Kemp for the first time last August in Boulder Colorado at an Advanced Mastery Training organized by Steve Andreas.
He introduced his Provocative Change Works by working with clients from the street. It was amazing how efficient
the change was. Nick is a brilliant trainer and therapist. He has a deep understanding of human nature and
an excellent sence of humor which is universal and creates an atmosphere where change can happen easily.
Nick was in Budapest in March and enchanted the Hungarian audience. We can hardly wait for him to come to Budapest again in October!” July 26, 2011

Gene Plotkin
hired Nick as a Training in 2009, and hired Nick more than once

“I first met Nick at a group event years ago. Since then I have attended many of his events, including Provocative Change Works, Stories from the Outside Inn, Powerful Presentation and others. Each event has given me the skills to achieve better and more deeply satisfying results in my business life, because Nick hears what you are saying on all levels, and he responds to you personally. He instils skills and abilities including confidence, creativity, and, importantly, the ability to learn.

In fact, I can say that Nick has been instrumental in the growth and development of my business and in myself as a professional. I was running a budding (small!) garden design business back then, and now I am a Registered Member of the Society of Garden Designers and teach garden design at Degree level.

I have also had private therapy sessions with Nick. These have been enormously helpful in strengthening my relationships and in my personal life. If you are thinking of engaging with a trainer, I absolutely recommend that you get in touch with Nick Kemp Training.” July 26, 2011

“Nick is the the best trainer and teacher that I have come across in my adult life. He leaves you hoping the night goes quickly so you can be back in the training again and when the seminare are over, awaiting details of the next one. I am not a training junkie and the last one was after 2 years but you just fall right back in with Nick and pick up where you left off, knowledge refreshed and eager for more.” July 11, 2011
