communication trainer testimonials

Testimonials

I am very happy to share the kind words below. They come from former colleagues at Sky, people in organisations I’ve worked with or helped, and people who I work with now.

Tejas is a great communicator – knowledgeable and engaging. His warmth, tone and passion for telling stories are clear to see through his work as a producer and journalist for over 20 years. He brought this to the community events we have organised, he’s been enthusiastic and supportive and a team player. He would be an asset to any organisation looking to improve communications

I had the pleasure of working with Tejas during his time at Sky. His contribution across our work was excellent. He brought a rare blend of clarity, creativity and strategic thinking to our communications work. I have no doubt his consultancy will bring real value to any organisation looking to strengthen communication or D&I

I’ve known Tejas for over a decade now and he has always shown thorough professionalism in our interactions. His passion for every job he does, and how he puts attention into being so inclusive and representative of the world around us, is impressive. I look forward to working with him again.

I worked closely with Tejas for almost a decade at Sky Sports News, and have always found him to be a quite brilliant and supportive colleague. The vast majority of the work we have done together has been in the field of EDI, and Tejas’s understanding of the subject matter and sensitivity in dealing with often very difficult issues has been exemplary.  His guidance and understanding has been of huge importance to me. Importantly, the areas where Tejas has shown his best judgement and impartiality has often been with issues outside race, culture and religion; his inclusivity and objectivity has often extended to stories involving disability, sexual orientation, and misogyny.

I’ve always enjoyed working with Tejas. He demonstrates a real passion for projects he works on and takes the time to really understand the narrative. Tejas is very respectful, kind and considerate and would always respond to me which, as a PR, is huge! Thanks to our work, we’ve got content on Sky Sports News, digital and social channels with great reach.

Tejas was a great help at Sky Sports creating opportunities for me to work on projects that celebrated diversity in sport. I learned a lot from him through his great communication as he set up an interview with actress Daisy Ridley about playing the role of the first woman to swim the English Channel. He clearly told me what was explained in the production process and guided me to put the final product together.

I’ve worked with Tejas in a variety of roles when he worked as a producer, doing interviews on the Special Projects team and as chair of the Ethnicity and Inclusion Network. He’s always available, communicates brilliantly, can command and run tough meetings and played a big role in Sky’s drive in diversity and inclusion.

Tejas has delivered talks at the Westmont Enterprise Hub at the University of West London. His advice is highly informative, and his ideas, enthusiasm and communications background has provided invaluable insight for our startups and small businesses.

Hub Development Manager, Westmont Enterprise Hub, University of West London

After more than 20 years in the industry, I can say Tejas is one of the most talented and hardest-working producers and journalists I have come across. 
His warm, engaging personality has helped him to put together one of the best contacts books in the business. He seems to know everyone who matters – from pop stars to US presidents. If I ever need to set up an interview or get in touch with someone, Tejas is my first port of call. 
 

SSN Chief Reporter

Tejas Kotecha has a keen eye for a good story with a unique angle. He’s easy to work with, thorough and never lets you down. I’ve worked with him for years and feel nothing but confident that he’ll always deliver. All of our trailblazing athletes who’ve been interviewed by Tejas on Sky’s Diversity Content Calls have really enjoyed it.
 

Katie Traxton
CEO, Founder, Good Vibes Only Talent

Tejas has always been a pleasure to work with. We collaborated during his time at Sky Sports, where he brought to life pre-Olympic features on Olympic medallists Keely Hodgkinson, Josh Kerr, and Lina Nielsen. He also provided invaluable support on the ground in Paris, helping to amplify the voice of our athletes.

Fun, vibrant and engaging in the way he delivers excellent advice using his personality. Finds a unique and entertaining way of delivering learning.
 

Eddie Decardi-Nelson

TV appearances require a professional sounding board, and Tejas’s high profile experience at Sky, coupled with his specialised expertise in media training ensures that individuals can communicate their messages clearly and effectively at scale with confidence. I say all this with personal experience as he got me onto Sky News to talk live about receiving British Empire Medal.
