His delivery is outstanding - a blend of some fabulous tricks and tips mixed with some fantastic humour. I would totally recommend you try him out and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

May 24,2021Patrick hosted a cyber crime event simulation for us which had great interest and was very well-intended. Feedback received was very positive with stakeholders requesting for Patrick to run more sessions. Thanks for your help with this event.

May 15,2021Attending the course with Outragous Impact, was time well spent. Patrick took time to understand us and our goals. Throughout the course he circled back on making sure material was relevant and impactful for our specific needs. He has an incredible way to put people at ease, engage with all present, and create a caring community out of participants. It was a genuine pleasure and cannot wait to continue my journey in interviewing with my new wingman.

May 04,2021Although I have been working remote and online for over a year, and am quite tired of online anything, I had a fantastic experience with this online course. Patrick was engaging, enthusiastic yet realistic, and was a pleasure to have as an instructor. The experience has helped me prepare for the inevitable tough conversations, and web-casted interviews in and outside of my workplace. After this course I believe I will be able to conduct interviews and moderate conversations in a very organized, respectable, and professional way.

May 03,2021Patrick runs a great interviewing course! It was a great space to learn some helpful interviewing tips/tricks and receive some feedback on my current interviewing skills. It was a fun course to do with my team and Patrick brings a very positive energy. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to refresh or enhance their interviewing skills!

May 01,2021Patrick is great at pulling the right things out of you. His class is interactive, valuable, and really lays out the crucial aspects of the research process. You do not need a lengthy, overkill class, Patrick is concise and an expert at presenting the most important pieces of information. Highly recommend!

Apr 30,2021I recently completed Outrageous Impact's "Interviewing for Innovation" course. Divided into 5 sessions, the course covered the key elements of online interviewing, from research planning and participant recruitment to analysis and reporting. In each session, Patrick provided a safe and open forum for asking questions about the material, discussing concerns and experiences with research practice. The course also went beyond discussion and included actual practice: conducting a series of three on-line interviews with participants recruited using a screener we developed as part of the course. Following those interviews, we worked as a group -- there were 5 of us in the course -- to review and comment on each other's interview sessions -- what worked well, areas for improvement. This "critique" was handled professionally and constructively. It was consistently clear that the intent was to help us all improve our interviewing skills. Another valuable element of the course was the discussion about how to address questions and concerns expressed about qualitative research results from stakeholders. And just as important as content and practice, if I had questions or needed help outside of the scheduled session times, Patrick responded in a thorough, timely and helpful way. His enthusiasm for research was consistently on display. I highly recommend this course.

Mar 04,2021Really enjoyed working with Patrick and the team. It was interesting to listen in to the online research session. The Remesh methodology / technology worked well, making sure that all voices were heard. The report produced afterwards wasn’t just a rehash of respondents’ comments but showed that great thought had gone into trying to work out what those comments meant - and how we might change / adapt better to meet customers’ needs and expectations.

Feb 10,2021The biggest challenge in delivering any kind of content online is to keep the attention of your audience and ensure that the information you want to share is delivered in an interactive and engaging way. Patrick’s workshop on crisis management did exactly that. Patrick is not only an experienced facilitator and trainer with a true flair for delivering engaging content but a truly knowledgeable expert.

Jan 29,2021Seriously great experience with Patrick. I engaged with him on behalf of several clients and the professionalism, rapid response and delivery before the due date was impressive and so appreciated. This made me look good and I will not hesitate to do business with him again or refer colleagues to him wildly. Sincere praise!

Dec 15,2020Research Yeah! Was a great course especially for the inexperienced researcher! I’ve done a good bit and still learned a lot. You gain not only tips & techniques for executing successful qualitative research but also coaching from Patrick on your “researcher presence” and tech set-up. Invaluable!

Nov 30,2020Patrick and Outrageous Impact offered an excellent service, checking what we needed to know (and why) and offering great ideas for building on this, and providing detailed and thoughtful analysis alongside constructive feedback in a useful report as well as the raw data. Patrick maintained open and regular communication throughout the project which meant we felt listened to, and knew we could trust him and his findings. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with OI again.

Aug 20,2020We had a very positive experience working with Patrick. We knew nothing about producing podcasts and Patrick guided us through the process with professionalism, enthusiasm, experience and good humour. We all really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend him.

Jul 31,2020Patrick did some excellent user research and strategy with us in the digital team at Time to Change. He's a great partner to work with on any research project - he's very open, a quick learner, and clearly knows his research methodologies. He also took his responsibilities for safeguarding very seriously, as we were working with vulnerable people on our project. Finally, he brought his whole self and enthusiasm to our work; it didn't feel like we were one of many clients he needed to juggle.

Jul 29,2020Patrick and his team led an amazing program - bringing together a diverse group of smart people from across the world who shared the goal of being great interviewers. Each week included tips and training and opportunities to stretch and try new ways to interview. Patrick does a great job of sharing actionable tips and making himself available for 1-1s for more detailed questions. Amazing to see the changes in skill and confidence in all of the attendees by the end of the program.

Jul 24,2020Insightful, surprising, and positive experience. Good for anyone who wants to have knowledge on how to run interviews smoothly and most importantly skillfully. What to say and how to say it, what kind of programs to use, what to consider, all the little details that will help to conduct outstanding interviews distilling relevant insights for your company. The friendly and supportive team was always accessible and easy to talk to. I had a fantastic time, and glad that I can be part of this community from now on.

Jul 23,2020Excellent course led by the very engaging and creative Patrick. He excels at making online delivery the best fun ever. Disco dancing and amusing whatsapp videos totally energizing. As someone with no experience of research interviews, the excellent content and highly interactive structure of the course helped me to have a solid grounding in how to conduct impactful interviews in just 4 weeks. Patrick's huge global experience conducting interviews is exceptional. Sharing professional insights with other amazing international researchers on the course even bigger bonus.

Jul 23,2020The Powerful Interviews pilot has shown me so much is such little time. I honestly can say that I feel more comfortable and more prepared to hold all the User Research Interviews I need to do and help change the world. Also, all activities were interactive and really insightful. Thank you Patrick and all the team at Outrageous Impact.

Jun 30,2021My team and I participated in the Interviewing for Innovation 4 week intensive course. Patrick made the content fun and engaging, had the team apply learnings to real-life interview situations and gave incredibly valuable feedback that was direct and constructive. He was flexible with our team and adapted the course to our needs as well, which we don't find often in other learning & development courses. Would highly recommend!!
