Testimonials

It can be hard to think freely given the pressures of business life. Working with Simon helped me do that through providing a combination of time, space, support and challenge.

Paul McAllister, Head of Product & Customer Operations, Nationwide Building Society

Working with Simon has been both enjoyable and stimulating. He has helped me develop as a senior manager through providing the combination of support and challenge which enables me to explore how my personal behaviours drive professional outcomes. As a result I have become more effective in exploiting my potential to engage with the organisation and drive the change which furthers both my career and the interests of Network Rail.

Richard Walker, Route Delivery Director (East Midlands), Network Rail Infrastructure Projects

The great thing about you, Simon, is your uncanny ability to think inside my box and then get me to think outside it – that, together with your insight and integrity, inspires me on both business and personal levels.

Simon, talking to you is balm for the soul.

I don’t know how you have done this but I feel more at peace and able to be myself. I have always been busy but now I know I am making a big difference.

I hadn’t worked with a coach before I embarked on my journey with Simon. It has been a truly life changing experience which has enabled me to remove obstacles from my career and personal life that I previously didn’t even know existed. I can’t recommend Simon highly enough.

Very experienced, intellectual, challenging and knowledgeable in “the arts of management”.

UK Director, Financial Services

Thanks again for your outstanding support; great listening skills, coupled with a sharp intellect and a tactful but direct manner, is a winning combination which I will gladly recommend.

UK MD

I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed our sessions and gained an enormous amount from them. Whilst a business like this will always be a hands-on one to some degree, I have made good progress at trying to rise above the clutter, making time to be more strategic and visionary.

UK MD, Service Sector

I thought Simon displayed a wide range of skills and approaches which, at all times, were appropriate and hit the mark.

Functional Head, Financial Services

One of the main reasons I was keen to work with Simon was that I knew that he had the commercial background and depth of experience that would command my respect and would give me confidence that he could empathise with the situations I found myself in.

Head of Function, Financial Services

I thought Simon struck an excellent balance between the more traditional purist coach and directive challenge /advise / suggestion to identify options.
