What People Say About Our Work

Here’s what Michael Ashcroft had to say about working with Ben:

I came into my session with Ben having been intrigued by the Wardley Maps I had seen on Twitter, but with no other knowledge. I wanted to know if there’s a *there* there worth exploring. Ben was fantastic in talking me through the key concepts in a way that would make sense to me. Now I feel confident that this is something I want to investigate much more deeply, but I wouldn’t be here without Ben’s guidance.

Here’s what Chris had to say:

I’ve gone through the books and talks but this session really helped connect it to my daily practice. It was really great to hear how I can apply Wardley Mapping to my real-life case. He is a wealth of knowledge. Looking forward to another one in the near future.

Tom, too:

In a single session Ben made the basics of Wardley Mapping far clearer to me, and helped me to start seeing the potential of the methods more fully. Highly recommended. Thanks Ben!
