Consummate professional.

My experience of James has been as a consummate professional who imparts his knowledge with generosity and enthusiasm. His training provides valuable critique and coaches the best out of individuals. I would recommend James to any organisation including academic institutions that wish for its people to deliver improved results.

Benefitted immensly

I hired James to coach and train six individuals at TLC with a diverse range of responsibilities, all of whom needed to grow their confidence and style in situations of client interaction. The results were great, and each attendee benefitted immensely from the workshop on many levels. I would not hesitate to employ James again and recommend his services to individuals or business owners who see the value in growing their people. The session was highly organised, professional and personalised.

Invaluable

When I was faced with a difficult presentation and trying to find the right balance of information and entertainment to a technical audience, James’s skills proved to be invaluable. He was able to provide the guidance and motivation to allow me to deliver a very successful presentation. Highly recommended by me.

Exemplary, excellent and exceptional!

High-quality coaching, mentoring, and training are the tradecraft of digital natives in the Covidian zeitgeist. James Hasler’s exemplary soft skills and expertise successfully facilitated an exceptional Zoom AGM for a diverse group of non-technical registrants. The successful outcomes were entirely due to James' excellent training and coaching to myself, a small group of organisers, and the chairperson. As the producer–coordinator, his persona, tacit knowledge, and skilful presentation abilities were duly recognised by everyone. Watch this space.

A pleasure to work with.

James has been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I submitted a very last-minute request for some help producing a Zoom screening and fundraising event for CanDo Action (A humanitarian organisation), and James responded within hours to say he could squeeze us in. I was immediately reassured that our event would be in safe hands and thanks to his calm demeanour and experience, we pulled the final details together very quickly to produce a very successful end result – including high-quality screening and smooth transitions to the hosts speaking and a Q&A session. We highly recommend James, and thank you for all your hard work!

Celebration of Life

HHC hosted a virtual “Celebration of Life” for my mum who passed away during the pandemic. They helped us create an event for well over 150 people, logging in on 70 different devices, from 3 continents and 6 time zones. We live in Vancouver, Canada, but this event allowed all mum’s relatives in England to join. Thanks to James’ knowledge of the technology and experience hosting these events, he turned what could have been just another painful, clunky zoom meeting, into a seamless professional event. James was very proactive, listening to my vision for the event, clearly setting out what information he needed and providing very clear instructions. On the day of the event, he put everyone at ease and guided the meeting with just the right tone. One presenter had tech difficulties 15 minutes before the start and James came up with a solution that allowed her to participate. At the end, James created breakout rooms that let everyone chat and share stories. The feedback from family and friends has been amazing. Everyone was so pleased to have been involved, especially family overseas who would not have been able to come to an in-person memorial. It was a wonderful send-off for my mum, and best of all for me, on the day of the event I did not have to worry about anything but my speech.

Only positive feedback

To hold our AGM virtually was not within our expertise, being the majority of us are of a certain age. HHC was recommended to our association and we couldn’t have had a better recommendation! James explained every point, thoroughly, calmly and with the utmost patience, answering questions in a timely and professional manner. He guided us through the voting logistics, covering every aspect of the meeting and possible potential issues. James recorded the meeting to assist in writing up the Minutes and we have received only positive feedback from members, asking if this could be the way forward for future AGMs. What higher accolade could you get?

FAQs answered by HaslerHill Consulting

How much do your corporate event services cost?
We are able to provide our services to fit most budgets and are always happy to discuss. Depending on the type of event, location and preparation, we may need to charge for travel and expenses, but we always try to be as reasonable as possible in our approach. The key question for you as a prospective client is how much do you value the service? If you are investing heavily in an event, then you need to ensure that you are maximising the impact of your investment by using the best professionals possible. If you are interested and have a budget in mind, please contact us to discuss how we can help you further as we would love to explore working together with you.
Are you able to provide the full corporate event planning and production service?
Our expertise lies in event moderation, facilitation and curation. We concentrate on delivering the best service possible based upon our expertise. We are able to recommend event planners and productions if this is requested by clients. Other services that we are able to provide include pre-recorded Voice of God announcements, voice over for promotional films for events and themed event hosting.
Do you work just in the UK?
We work both in the UK and internationally. Most recently we have worked in the US (Las Vegas), Austria, Belgium and Germany. We are used to supporting international events and happy to travel. Increasingly, we are also asked to moderate and host virtual events using different technology. This works best when we are involved in the planning and curation process to enable a truly interactive, quality audience experience. Additionally when it comes to fronting international events James is often chosen because of his very clear renounced pronunciation (RP) voice, which makes him very easy to understand for those who do not speak English as a first langauge.
How do you work with your corporate clients when providing your event and meeting hosting and facilitation services?
Typically, we would organise a zoom call to discuss the brief as a first step and to explore the experience and cultural fit to better understand how we might work together. The next step would be to develop a written proposal response to your brief for you to review and if you are happy to proceed to sign off. If pre-work is required for your event(s), we would factor that into the proposal along with travel time and any expenses. If there is no pre-work involved, then typically you would provide us with the agenda and your requirements in writing up to 3-4 days in advance of the event and typically we would have another zoom call to work through the running order and finalise any outstanding issues.
How do you work with your corporate clients on meeting design and content curation?
Typically, we would organise a zoom call to discuss the brief as a first step and to explore the experience and cultural fit to better understand how we might work together. The next step would be to develop a written proposal response to your brief for you to review and if you are happy to proceed to sign off. We would hold a series of zoom calls and or meetings to work on the content, agenda/programme and speaker briefings over a series of months in the run up to the event. We would also be present on the day to assist with speaker management and the flow of the event.
