The team workshop in sales contributed to an exchange of ideas and getting more sensitive for the perspectives of other department, which really helped us to understand each other better.
The exercises made the dialogue very lively and never boring. In addition, the exercises broadened our view and sharpened our sense of taking the time to prepare in order to then tackle the task with a joint concept and clearly discussed responsibilities.

“The SKF Group is taking a very serious approach to Corporate Sustainability. To succeed, we need the involvement of the many employees we have around the world. A decision was taken to run our own training programme, Sustainability Awareness Training, for more than 40.000 employees.

Peter Guendling was the critical force in both developing the training material and conducting training for in-house trainers as well as colleagues around the SKF world. Peter’s drive, energy and
enthusiasm made this happen.”

“The subject of sustainability has been presented very inspiring and informative which has shown us how we can improve our efforts in the area of sustainability.

With his openness Peter Gündling captured the interest of the workshop participants for the wide scope and for the urgency of sustainability. He touched the heart of our top management team and made us much more sensitive for sustainability”.

“ I must admit that I went to Aspenas last Tuesday with the feeling that I will lose 3,5 work-days BUT I left the training with the feeling that I have gained a LIFETIME.

What you and the other participants did for me on those 3,5 days is so much more than what a therapist have been able to give me for 2 years now. I have had a hard period of my life with burn-out and very dark thoughts that I have struggled with. So it was such a relief when I in the second day of the course suddenly realized that it is all about ME and no one else- just ME. As I said in my summery of the course, this was nothing new- all the tools has been lying there right in front of me, but you learned me to find my inner peace and all of a sudden I saw very clear why I am as I am and why I act as I act- there is no one else to blame, it is all up to me. And it feels so good!

To keep his good feeling of being ME, being the best SKF ME and most important being the very best ME in all my relations, I have continued to start the day with a 15 minutes yoga/meditation (10 days in a row and this is now a part of my awakening). This helps me to start every day with the same feeling that i left Aspenas last Friday. The feeling of being free and having total control of my inner peace and seeing the beautiful world with total opened eyes and mind.

The other day my little girl said to me” You look so happy dad” and I answered “That is because I am happy inside”, she replied “And it all comes out in your eyes”

So once again, from the bottom of my heart Peter, THANK YOU for opening up my inner peace and healing my wound ! I will always be grateful to you.”

“How I look back and think about our time together in the training is as a great gift for life. I think a lot and reflect over different topics from the course several times every day.

I have understood in a much better way how to take control over my own behavior and easier understand where I can influence and where I can not.
One thing is that I try to focus on is to listen to someone even if I am not 100% interested, especially if I feel that it is important to that person that I listen.

Another new thing is that I have started to see my anger as a strength in some cases and not 100% as a weakness as I did before.

I can now also motivate myself to more often be as nice to my husband, my family and my close relatives as I am to my friends and to my colleagues. (those I do not know that well, for my closest colleagues, they goes as family and sometimes gets a piece of the fire). The colleagues in my team where very curious of the course.

Finally I have started to say no to be able to say yes to the big stones.

Thank you for a extremely appreciated gift.”

“This training was something extra ordinary and I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

I went to the training hoping to find balance and have hard fun.
During the training the reality caught up with me and it made me realize how I was living my life, not always in a good way.

For example, the energy assessment had a statement “I spend enough time with family” and I put disagree on there. I talked
with my husband about it and he said “But, we spend every evening together…. How come you feel that you do not spend enough time with family?”

I told him that I was there physically but not mentally, I was always a couple of steps ahead (if not even days). And this caused me stress and
I probably missed out on the moments together with my family cause I was always chasing the future.”

“This course was far beyond our expectations. Peters experience
truly helped us and really made the difference.
I am very positive the 7 principals will enable us and used in a proper way the results will surely come.”

“This course was a mind opening experience. Peter took me out of my comfort zone, and made me think of experiences which I normally would not have thought of or cared about.”

“Life never becomes the same after this course and that is meant in a good sense”.
