The following are recent comments about me and the way I come across.

Here are some comments from my fellow students on the MBA course at Cranfield:
'I enjoyed working with you. You were generous with sharing your knowledge about accounts, and your lively manner was useful for motivating the team. Your direct and open feedback was much appreciated.'

'thank you also for acting as a sounding board/wise counsel when we hit some of those tricky times.....'


Here is what they wrote about me as part of the course material:
'Len Jones was the only Activist learner and a J-type. He could be assertive, wanting to keep on task and achieve definition. He was an outgoing, energetic Extrovert but could be impetuous. His Career Anchor bias to SV and MBTI type suggest concern for others. This was supported by observation; Len was a ‘gentleman’ who wanted to help, was inclusive and used persuasion rather than trying to dominate. He could mediate but understood that conflict was inevitable and was willing to make firm criticisms when necessary.'

Here is a comment about my learning style:
"I always knew you would extract maximum value from everything that you do – thanks for your feedback and for your enthusiasm!"


Here is a comment concerning a business issue with one of our key suppliers:
"At a personal level, I would like to thank you for the professional and pragmatic way you have approached this issue and feel that both our respective teams have demonstrated a spirit of cooperation in circumstances which were not of either (our) making."
