What our Clients Say
Dozens of programmes delivered across New Zealand and Australia…A transformational experience for participants - for some, life-changing…The difference between The Pickering Group and a typical supplier is that they have an ability to really understand a company – it’s purpose, values, culture, and current environment – at a deeper level than most. They get it. They adapt. They make an enormous difference.”

Our Clients
"Great business presenting lies in an advanced ability to construct a powerful idea, then speak that idea to an audience – making them think, feel or do something different. Those who have the discipline to develop and hone this talent are almost always successful in whatever they choose to do – business or otherwise." Russell Pickering – Founder & Managing Director
