“Last year 3F’s small EU team participated in a highly recommendable EU public affairs training course led by the brilliant Mette Lykke. Over two sessions – with preparation and homework in between – Mette trained us in improving and targeting our strategic EU advocacy work. The course gave us a clearer understanding of the potential for the team to work more effectively in our EU advocacy work and provided clear advice and usable tools. We found the sessions to be both engaging, relevant and highly applicable. I would recommend Lykke Advice to anyone who wishes to sharpen and expand their EU lobby toolbox in a pleasant and targeted manner.”
-Nadja Abelgren Olsen: 3F
“To upgrade our negotiation skills and explore new techniques for
lobbying and public relations, we had a two-days training from Lykke
Advice. Mette and Laurens successfully delivered a hands-on training
where theory and practice were alternated. They had immersed
themselves in our field of work, which resulted in a tailor-made training
and allowed us to immediately practice newly gained insights and tools
provided.“
-Els Claeys: Belgium's Federal Public Service Mobility and Transport
