“In a delightful, boisterous and rather untraditional manner that rivets your attention, Leslie Choudhury defines how to actualize your self-awareness to successfully relate to people in all circumstances. He stands out as a master story-teller who can reach a diverse audience without any boundaries or limitations. It is only Leslie who can wear a red jacket with such panache for he delivers quite a powerful message that will be remembered for a long time to come. If you want results hire him.”

Leslie is one of the most Exceptional & Outstanding trainers that I have ever met. He has exceeded my expectations by his unique style of training which is definitely one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Leslie is the best, a very lively trainer who knows how to connect with all the audience through his humorous ways. The training was powerful, awesome & sensational! Being in sales and marketing for many, many years I really thought there would be little that I would learn….I think you surprised all the sales and marketing people. You are simply Different & Great! We learnt heaps!

“When I walked into the conference room I thought “this guy better be good at what he does” – and yes you were!! We all had an enlightening experience and will benefit from the lessons learned and experiences shared. I for one now have a whole new concept in my mind when the word “Sales Presentation” comes up. It was a pleasure to receive you in Oman. Looking forward to our next meeting.

“I found the course,” Effective Sales Presentations that Get Results” that Leslie conducted very pertinent to my position. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The information divulged, that a Sales Presentation is a package involving the Presenter, as well as the Presentation was an eye-opener. I would recommend this course to any-one who has to interact with peers and clients in a meeting/presentation environment.”

“For someone who I must admit was a tad sceptical walking into your session yesterday, you turned me around totally!
Your Motivational session was, in a word, sensational.
You pitched to the international audience perfectly. Your words were carefully chosen and the video examples excellent – they were apt to the overall tone of the session – the right amount of humour with a very strong underlying psychological message – brilliant! Well, done again on a great presentation – thoroughly enjoyable with a message that was well and truly delivered!”

“From the very first moment I saw him, I knew something was very different. He was wearing a jacket that screamed-out! Uncertain at this point whether or not I was in the right training session, I approached Leslie and asked “I am not sure if I am meant to be here…” and he replied, “Don’t worry, this is a session you won’t want to miss.” Leslie has a way of presenting that inspires me. Every word he said carried a psychological element which I never really knew or realized. He would use jokes and stories that fit to the topic he was teaching. Every session, people would smile and laugh, but at the same time learn the content of the course. Leslie has that unique ability to express to you so many interesting facts not only about the course but on the world and the day-to-day experiences we face with fellow colleagues or clients. He has truly been an inspiration to me, and for all those embarking on a course with him, buckle up, it’s going to be an awesome ride!”

Leslie, when I first contacted you to customize a Program for Emirates Hotels & Resorts, I was not sure if our unique challenge could be handled by you and your team. I must say, having had both the Harbour & Green Lakes hotels, go through your 2 weeks training, my staff and management have not stopped singing praises and I am personally pleased with not just the Impact and End Result but the forming of a culture we can now call our own. The results have more than justified the costs.
Thank You!

“Leslie’s impact was not only made by the shining colour of his outfit, but also by the smooth and fabulous quality of his training. This is one of the courses I most enjoyed and learned from. It’s totally inspiring. Many of the paradigms that we all took for granted will change now, both at work and at home. We all indeed had a great time and I personally look forward to another life-time experience with Leslie! “

Additional Testimonials
“Leslie Choudhury is one of the most inspiring and influential trainers I have come across so far. He was very knowledgeable and the workshop that he had conducted for us was very informative and of course very entertaining with his great sense of humour. The culture workshop was very appropriate for us as it targeted the issues/problems that some of us were facing. I very much enjoyed the short yet useful video clips throughout the workshop and the interaction we had with one another. We now know the need to change and will embrace change in our journey of Life. Thank you very much!” Jason Mah- MEA Technologies, Singapore.
The Vision Alignment program conducted by Leslie Choudhury was amazing. We could see positive behaviour change from our core team members by even just the 2nd week, which in turn affected the rest of the company. This training of and applying Directive Communication Psychology made our people more cohesive and approach challenges with a positive attitude. I am proud of my staff and despite of the time commitment and expenses I feel and know it was a well justified decision. I highly recommend this program for any organisation who wants to bring out the very best performance from their people and create a productive environment which is aligned to corporate vision. Thank You Leslie Choudhury International Pte.Ltd.

A dynamic, exciting workshop, where Leslie’s brain colour explanation really helped us appreciate differences amongst staff members. He makes learning fun and took us through hands-on exercises to help reinforce those principles. We laughed, shouted and at the end of his workshop, walked out a better team.

Thank you so much for such an exuberating Change Management program spent with you and the group. It has been a great pleasure to learn from you and I had thoroughly enjoyed my time in class. The course has given me new dimensions to reinforce what I knew I have to do yet failed to execute. It has been a self-fulfilled and reflective days.
The next steps are to implement what is learned and made it a part of my routine. I believe that it will not be easy and it is a matter of mind over body because YES, I CAN!
Suh Yng (Ms)
Centre Manager, Singapore
I really want to say a big thank you for motivating and sharing with us your way of thinking. After listening to what you had said, you do have a very point related to my current situation and mindset. I felt I am too pessimistic and refused/afraid to change. I asked myself, “what am I going to do after that?” For the past few days, you had knock my head with a gigantic hammer, I am feeling more relieve, and more positive towards finding change and new goals in my life.
Thank you very much for the great inspiration. 🙂

Gabrielle Lee

“Leslie is a great trainer! He is a very enthusiastic, entertaining and educational trainer. He has made me laugh during the two days of training more than the entire year combined. Being a neutral party and an experienced trainer, he has the hindsight to perceive the lacking elements that we must strengthen and develop in our working place. He is fearless and possesses the moral courage to say or suggest things which he feels need to be put right and receptive and not to be judgmental when accepting feedback from others.”
Roger Ng
“Leslie is a dynamic and enthusiastic trainer! It was an amazing experience to be trained under him! His enthusiasm and energy broke the usual way of attending workshops. His delivery style captured my 100% attention from the moment I was seated down till the end of the workshop. The contents were enriching and it would definitely help me in improving my leadership and my communication with others.”
Jasline Chua
He is a great speaker and wonderful person. He creates a benchmark of “Quality Service” and reach at this platform where people know him for his work in the different industry from Hotel to Tourism organisation and now beyond. He is good communicator and knows the branding in competitive business world. He is a person who can able to change the impression as well as perception of people. That what I liked about his personality from the start.
You can’t ignore Dr. Leslie Choudhary. He will leave his presence, impact in people’s mind and hearts and you will be impressed by his humble nature and always remember him.
Finally, I conclude that He doesn’t need any recommendation but his talks, trainings creates value for People & Organisations. You would miss out if you do not use him for making yourself, your staff and your company better.
