“Del McAlister  is a skilled communicator who specialises in taking  difficult and complex  concepts and  presenting them clearly and  simply. She writes and presents her material in an easily understood and well  structured style.”

 

"Excellent, real, meaningful, and compassionate, are a few words to describe the workshop on bereavement, grief and loss. Great tools to equip leaders to handle this potentially fragile time in a persons’ life journey. Well prepared and presented by the writer Del, with sensitivity, grace and care.  Thank you Del for your insight and courage to produce this seminar, highly recommended for all people."

 

"It was obvious Del’s educational qualifications and life experience had shaped an informative, practical and entertaining insight into the topic she shared. Del provided guided handouts at the seminar that were written in an easy-to-follow manner and encouraged audience participation and reflective thought. As a health practitioner and seminar presenter, I would be more than happy to recommend Del Marie McAlister for future events."
