Said the following about Trevor Boyd and the TIM Team:

“Trevor, Al, Josh, Sian and Simon have created and are delivering a team effectiveness development programme to our frontline and management teams in Network Rail Western Route titled TIM. However, it’s not an ordinary classroom training session. It’s a fun filled, deep and meaningful development session with lots of discussion, self-reflection and practical tasks leaving teams feeling elated and motivated at the end.

The whole team, led by Trevor, are passionate, determined and dedicated to developing and supporting our maintenance employees to be the best individuals and teams they can be. They spend countless hours providing further personal and professional coaching to individuals who want their time to help them improve.

So far they have received positive feedback from every attendee, with most stating they have changed their behaviours since the course, and some even saying that it’s saved their marriage, prevented mental health, and helped them bond with their team mates to become more engaged at work. Everyone who attends this session gets something from it that makes them want to be better.

The success of this course is not what is delivered, but HOW it is delivered, by a passionate, dedicated, hardworking, knowledgeable team.

I believe the TIM team deserve this award as they dedicate their so much of their time improving their sessions for their delegates, improving themselves, they thrive on making positive changes to our people and teams, and they work hard as a collaborative and fun team to deliver the most professional and impactful training they can.“

Trevor is invested in improving life on the railway and supporting individuals to achieve a better life both inside and outside work. His enthusiasm really comes across and his initiative in developing this course deserves recognition. It's been fantastic to see the creativity involved in making this course and his passion in delivering it.“

Gary Wallace

Said the following about Trevor Boyd and the TIM Team:

“Trevor has been the initiative passionate developer of the TIM training from its concept.

The course delivers inner realisation of one’s own strengths and weaknesses also enabling other team members to share what they wish to share.

Having known & worked with attendees in my group some as long as 30 years I was surprised how little knew about my fellow colleges.

The course brought together many learning approaches I have experienced over many years in one week, the resulting change in my approach enables me to take a more pragmatic approach in everyday life.

I look forward to the next stage of TIM.

Well done to Trevor and Sian for delivering the course I attended.“
