Testimonials for Nicole Velik

“Nicole’s energy and passion for creativity and ideas were instantly apparent, and the professionalism and manner in which she presented resulted in a session which was very well received by the team, at all levels. Her ability to get participants to think laterally resulted in exciting and fresh thinking around some of our traditional challenges. The techniques she shared with us continue to be of great use to colleagues, and the office.”

Public Information Officer, United Nations, New York

Nicole is a highly motivational speaker who draws on her years of experience to very quickly build rapport with her audience.  She has a clever way of helping people overcome their mental blocks to unleash their creative side.  In the space of two hours she was able to get a room full of financial analysts and actuaries thinking creatively about developing workable solutions to help them overcome problems that will set them apart from their competitors.

“I recently attended an Ideas Master class with Nicole from the Ideas Bodega and I was blown away by the amount of relevant information and productive tools that were provided. It was by far and way the most useful course I have attended and Nicole’s passion and professionalism were undoubtedly major contributors to this experience. She has identified an important area in our market and has made herself an expert in the art of the brainstorm.”

“Really valuable tools and techniques for creative planning and brainstorming. It was a hugely beneficial process and I would highly recommend it to any organisation wishing to inject a fresh approach to their creative output.”

Managing Director, One Green Bean, Sydney

“The masterclass was both inspiring but also really practical too (where many other training courses fail), arming you with the best ways to get the most out of your and your team’s thinking. Nicole led the class superbly, using lots of different examples and experiences. Would recommend it for all agency folk; relevant for suits, creatives and planners alike.”

Senior Planner, Ogilvy and Mather, Melbourne

“Nicole ran a two-day Idea Generation Masterclass with incredible results. The team was thrilled with the workshop, with many claiming this to be one of the best they’d experienced. The impact has certainly been far-reaching across the business. On a professional level, I cannot recommend Nicole highly enough.”
