Coaching clients have said

Whilst it was with some trepidation (the great unknown!) that I went into coaching, I found it to be an enlightening and enjoyable experience. To have someone totally independent that I can vent and bounce thoughts and ideas off was of great value. More importantly though, coaching gave me an invaluable opportunity and provided the tools to enable me to understand and adjust my management and leadership style." KR

Very professional in your approach and guidance, allowing me to  make decisions for myself based on your no-judgement style of coaching. What makes you stand out from the crowd is your endless passion and desire for personal empowerment, and your thirst for knowledge, not to mention your ability to help others achieve their goals and dreams. I have always parted with a sense of renewed optimism." HO'B

Thank you for everything you have helped me with these past two years. You saved my life at a time when I was sinking, for which I will be forever grateful. I really do not know what I would have done without you. I do know that the Branch would not have been operational in the timeframe it was without your help and support, through some really difficult times, so thanks again." DZ

You are a very knowledgeable person, very skilled and experienced in managing staff by encouraging them often to come up with their own solutions to problems rather than relying on you to provide all the answers." IM

Fair, professional, flexible, thoughtful. I wish all my Directors/managers/bosses were like you, I wouldn't have needed to change jobs so often!" BW

You're brave; willing to 'tell the truth' though in doing so you're also sensitive to people's thoughts and feelings." KL
