Myrmidon Testimonials

“I first met Patrick when he was relatively new to the business development role in 2000. I was impressed with his depth of knowledge and his ability to deliver training and advice with passion and clarity. I complemented his superior at the time for having recruited someone with his talent and potential. Patrick has lived up to that potential over the years to the point I can recommend him without reservation to anyone wanting to improve the productivity of their organization.”

"Patrick is the most fascinating trainer I have ever met during my entire 17 years career in business since I was working for and within multinational companies.
He is super-charismatic, charming, as well as very efficiently driving people to measurable success, by using an insight, very well targeted and very human kind of communication that is first of all adapted to each type of personality.
Due to his great deal of talent and involvement my team and myself achieved many successful placements and conquered many human resources managers and candidates hearts. My poor English skills cannot actually express the gratitude for Patrick's role in my success"

“Being successful in today's fast moving business world requests to be agile, to be a doer, to be a chameleon to adapt swiftly to any situation, to be a trend-setter, to be able to listen actively to your customers and candidates.
These are some of Patrick's talents and, therefore, he will help you and your team to go the extra-mile further, the one which leads to top results, top return-on-investment and above all, to value your internal human capital assets to the maximum.
I have had the chance to work and interact with Patrick for years now and I can not only recommend him as an excellent results-driven professional but also as a great human being.
Trust me, in this War for Talent, Patrick Broderick and his Myrmidons will constitute your best allied forces.”

“I first encountered Patrick 3 years ago, and in those 3 years I have increased my growth year on year by 40+% every year. By looking through non emotional eyes he has an ability to really analise a recruitment business from desk level through to my business plan. He has an uncommon ability to apply any problem I give him to his process and with a never ending chest of war stories he reassures me that I am now alone in a specific problem. It sounds a little strange, but having Patrick at my side and knowing that he will always take my call wherever in the world he is, I feel I have an ally who knows my world and can give sound advice that when applied – works!!
Beyond the practical support, with Patricks advice and selling of his ideas to me I have increased my percentage fee this year and through his mantra of “break traditional recruitment patterns” school I have much more control of existing and new clients – leading to more placements from the same amount of input – as Patrick would say “Result!!”.

“Patrick is both a first class trainer and a believer in what he says and how it is done. There are many 'trainers' in the market who inspire and sell for an hour, a day or a week, but what I like about my experience with Pat is the longevity of his approach: He knows what should be done, and then follows this through over a period of months or in my case years, often in his own time and I assume because of his own interest and curiosity in the people he meets.
I would add that unlike many top-executives who rely on their ability to charm and entertain, but who struggle when it comes to defending their ideas, Patrick is able to defend and reinforce his way of doing this with a calmness, objectivity and professionalism which, in reality, very rare at the top.
My office probably billed an extra $1 million last year due to Pat's input, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.”

“As the owner of a new Recruitment business in Mumbai I had the advantage /privilege of attending training sessions conducted by Patrick. With Myrmidon behind me it is if I have been open and delivering for years. I went from 0 to 60 placements in 11 months, on my own desk alone!! Learning how to launch through how to win and retain clients, through on time delivery in a hugely competitive market. If you are looking for relaxing, educational and world class recruitment training, you need not search high and far, speak to Patrick. Patrick has the style to captivate his audience in such a manner that you are left asking for more long after his sessions are over. My team came out with clear steps as to how they could put these new skills into practice. Patrick's training is unique, you put your problems to him and he finds you the practical solutions to progress. Fantastic!! Never before had a training programme ensured commitment and agreed outcomes! High energy, tireless, motivating and a pleasure to be with.
I would highly recommend Patrick as a Trainer and beyond that, as a Business Consultant.”
Mine Batiyel – General Manager

”Experience alone is not sufficient for success in the area that we operate in - you also need to have the 'human' competencies. Only then can you be assured that a consultant will have an impact on your business. Patrick fits this description fully! He is a competent, results oriented business consultant and his down to earth nature is needless to say rather rare for a person of his background and experience. I would recommend Patrick without a single doubt.”
MICHAEL SAULET – MANAGING DIRECTOR

“Patrick Broderick is a high impact player, making a real difference through his training and application. He thoroughly understands his subject matter and has that rare ability to interpret sometimes difficult subjects in a simple way allowing people of all abilities to comprehend his explanation. He has made a significant commercial contribution to my business by providing the tools for my employees to make money both for themselves and for my company. Few people have the skill to train people from 12 different nationalities in the same room at the same time. Patrick has the dexterity to achieve this and a rare talent to genuinely engage them all with his vigour and professionalism. His meeting reports have always been accurate which allows us to take meaningful actions based upon his advice. I would have no hesitation in recommending his training expertise to the recruitment sector whether they are business owners or individual consultants.”
