“I have found the experience of being coached extremely positive, not only in them helping me to identify, frame and clarify key personal development objectives but also offering practical tools, techniques and suggestions to achieve them. Specifically, working with my coach has materially improved my ability to empower, develop and challenge my team, my time management and my ‘personal brand’ – in short, to become a better leader. The results have been evident both to myself, my team and colleagues. In particular, my relationship with my manager has dramatically improved which has enabled us to work much more effectively together to the benefit of the business.

My coach’s flexible and objective approach, with the right balance of support and challenge, enabled me to see a clearer path both in solving leadership issues and achieving my personal development goals. I believe that the techniques and approaches practiced and developed with my coach (and the confidence gained) will enable me to continue to improve, even at the end of our coaching programme.”

“I have worked with my coach for almost a year, during this time I’ve learned how to communicate clearly with my team whilst being realistic about the work I could take on, and the most importantly learned how to say no. As a coach, they has helped me to reflect on my leadership style, identifying areas for improvement. They created a safe, yet challenging coaching environment whilst always taking the time to stay current and focused on the specifics of my role and how I could improve. My coach was insightful and able to analyse the key issues by listening to what was being said; as well as unsaid, and asking penetrating questions. As a result, I have been able to pinpoint areas for change, think through different approaches, and then focus on taking action. They always made the effort to accommodate my ever-changing schedule and I truly valued their insight and personal attention.”

“It has been great to have someone external to my organisation to coach me, both by offering a safe environment in which to test ideas and also by being away from day-to-day distractions. My coach has been instrumental in helping me to “hold up a mirror” to myself in order to see myself as others do. The sessions have been both challenging and very rewarding; the benefits of our work together have been rapidly visible.”
