On the long working days, you’ll find people who suddenly stand up and shout: "Are you ready?" Martin’s talk has many more sides to it than his little humorous tools.

Martin Erichsen was recommended to me, and now it’s my pleasure to recommend him on.

Through laughter, Martin mentally fast-forwarded us 4 hours into the programme.

When you plan a seminar, you do everything to make it go perfectly. So we called in Martin Erichsen, who made sure we got the best possible start. Martin set the tone of humour for the rest of the seminar, which turned out to be an important tool in our continued dialogue about values.

Martin Erichsen was recommended to me, and now it’s my pleasure to recommend him on.

Henriette Bonding, Senior Officer
PostNord, Distribution

It was a pleasure to experience Martin Erichsen. Several managers have already contacted me to tell me what a big impression his talk made on them. Everyone really came away with something to think about.

What really matters to me is that the managers took your talk home and now use it day to day. That’s not something I see every day!

Many thanks for a very inspiring and entertaining day.

Marlene Mejrup Tang, HR Consultant
PostNord

Thanks for your talk at our IP day. It was a good, funny — and for some participants boundary-pushing — talk.

The talk fell at the toughest possible time — right after lunch — but it was perfect, since participants got moving and exercised their laughter muscles, while it also connected to the theme of the day, so the common thread of the day was kept — in a different way.

We’ve had many positive comments from participants, and no negative ones, and we’ve heard since that it’s something people remember and tell colleagues about — which matters when you need to get a message across.

Helle Mette Sørensen, Product Manager
PostNord

At a seminar for project managers, we got a flying start to day two when Martin Erichsen gave a talk.

Martin Erichsen’s performance got top marks from every participant and drew comments like these:

"A brilliant start to the day!"

Kim B. Jensen, Sales Director
PostNord

There were around 40 men and women from Post Danmark’s head office in Copenhagen who had a brilliant experience with Martin Erichsen’s talk, Thank goodness it’s almost Monday.

The theme of the day was company culture and the future of Finance & Economy, and Martin’s talk fitted right in. We got a set of tools that, in a fun and inspiring way, gave us insight into how we can influence our own motivation and happiness at work.

The talk has no doubt left some good marks in all our minds, and we’ve become much more aware of how our mood and our behaviour are connected.

Torsten Fels, Deputy Director
PostNord, Finance & Economy

Martin Erichsen’s talk at our seminar was brilliant, and he’s had nothing but positive feedback from participants. All in all, it was an extremely positive experience and a really good start to our seminar.

The programme, which mainly consisted of sharing experiences and networking, was kicked off with a talk on good wellbeing by Martin Erichsen. Soon the barriers were down, the inhibitions gone. Martin created an informal, laughter-friendly and playful environment that mentally fast-forwarded us 4–5 hours into the day.

Martin’s talk on good wellbeing also gave thought-provoking perspectives on the influence of humour on communication, teamwork and leadership — which I’m convinced will hit the mark for gatherings like ours.

Cultural gaps can cost dearly if they’re allowed to develop into poor teamwork. So we wanted to make sure our people were brought together once and for all and grew more aware of what it means to be a High-Performance Team.

With a sure hand, Martin steered us to the finish with his workshop on teamwork and made sure everyone got to push boundaries together in a fun and instructive way.

Martin is a sure hit if you’re looking for a professional, experienced team expert.

130 employees had turned up for the talk. Spirits were high — and even higher after Martin Erichsen introduced himself, on fine form.

It was a different and exciting start to a good evening — something I’d recommend considering if you want to give your people a fun talk on a good working environment.

We definitely had a good experience with Martin’s talk on happiness at work.

We definitely had a good experience with Martin’s talk on happiness at work. We were all impressed by his timing and his ability to read the mood of the room in a flash. Calmly and steadily, Martin coaxed everyone into taking an active part, and we won’t soon forget that positive experience.

We had a good day together all round, but his talk on happiness at work in particular was mentioned often afterwards. I really believe in Martin’s take that, once you’ve had fun together, you also have a shared experience and a shared foundation to build on in your teamwork.

Bent Handberg, Project Manager
CGI

The message in Martin’s talk on good wellbeing and happiness at work is simple and easy to remember: "Decide your mood", "raise the bar" and "change your strategy until you reach the goal". No one can disagree with that — and when it’s delivered with focus and fun, his talk stands as a strong frame of reference we can use going forward.

Cheers and applause from us.

Dorte Gade, Division Director
CGI

As part of building good collaboration with one of our important clients, Martin’s workshop — charmingly, and with exercises — created such enthusiasm that everyone’s smiles came out fast. We all took home strong tools for good teamwork that I’m sure will help us get off to a good start and create even better collaboration in the team in the future.

Good teamwork brings people closer together in a completely natural way, and is therefore an important ingredient I’d recommend to any team that’s in a start-up phase or wants to strengthen an existing collaboration.

Martin’s presence creates energy, motivates and brings the realisation that we ourselves create the day we experience.

Having seen Martin Erichsen give a talk on happiness at work four times for all our employees, I can now say it’s no coincidence that his messages get through. Martin’s presence creates energy, motivates and brings the realisation that we ourselves create the day we experience.

It’s a great pleasure to watch him work.

Karin Skjødt Hindkjær
Director, HR & Communications

Two organisations merging across national borders is always a challenge. So we looked for a workshop that rose above the obvious national, linguistic and cultural differences.

In 2 hours, Martin gave 120 employees his workshop on High-Performance Teams, which I think most will remember for life. An experience that suddenly brought everyone under the same roof.

We can recommend Martin Erichsen as part of a merger process.

Martin Erichsen showed professional insight into our situation, which means I’ll trust him with similar tasks in the future.

Martin Erichsen made it easy for us to start the collaboration in a free, open dialogue with a new strategic client – who would later turn out to be our largest.

When you run a consultancy like ours, a trusting client/supplier relationship is essential. Drawing on his knowledge of the industry, Martin Erichsen created a safe setting where laughter came naturally. That made the dialogue closer than we would otherwise have experienced – and that was worth a great deal to both us and the client.

If you want to give your people an experience they’ll talk about for a long time, Team Fire will probably catch your interest. As part of a day where we wanted to create a shared platform for the team, we chose to draw on Martin Erichsen’s expertise. Because even though it can feel like you’re walking on coals in everyday life, experiencing it for real is something else entirely.

Martin gave us an experience that’s still talked about. And if anyone asks what we can’t do, it’s actually hard to answer – after we’ve walked on fire!!!

Ricco Larsen, SAP Solutions Manager & Firewalker

Thanks for a successful event, where the main aim was to bring employees closer together and build team spirit. The event ran with music, exercises and plenty of laughter.

Martin gave everyone something to think about and an experience I warmly recommend to others.

It was powerful to hear that you have to decide to do something 100% — or not at all. It’s easy to see yourself as a prisoner of circumstance, and Martin got participants to realise they had a role, and so a chance to influence how things developed.

We found that Martin Erichsen masters that skill at a very high level.

When you, like KPMG, make a living from giving long-term advice to some of the country’s largest companies, it’s essential to be able to understand and put yourself in the client’s situation.

We found that Martin Erichsen masters that skill at a very high level. In a very short time we created the setting — a "safe environment" — in which colleagues could get to know each other better; and we actually managed to break down some of the barriers that would otherwise have been hard to break.

A busy everyday of many meetings and tight deadlines was, in an instant, turned into genuine, lively contact — which, full of energy, carried the mood through to Monday morning.

I believe — and sense — that the chemistry Martin helped create will last a long time. Meeting Martin was therefore a fresh, valuable breath of air that has developed our view of the potential in growing social wellbeing in the workplace.

Henrik Lund, Senior Tax Consultant
KPMG

Martin Erichsen’s talk "Thank goodness it’s almost Monday" was without question the highlight of the day, with a very fine balance of fun and seriousness and with clear, good messages we all still remember and use daily.

Everyone in the company has given very positive feedback, so we all agree: thank goodness it’s almost Monday. I warmly recommend Martin Erichsen to everyone in my network.

"What good is your knowledge if the clients can’t remember what you tell them anyway?"

Martin Erichsen was the perfect ending to our annual staff seminar on knowledge sharing.

Through my long career in consulting, I’ve found that many consultants tend to underestimate humour in everyday work. With Martin’s talk, I don’t think anyone was in any doubt that humour, knowledge sharing and advice are closely connected.
