Clients' coaching experiences
Coaching does work. These are a few of the many hundreds of clients, from all backgrounds and positions, who we have helped to achieve their goals.
I was slightly apprehensive about my sessions with Sue but there was simply no need to be.
She made me feel completely comfortable and was fully flexible around what I wanted to achieve from the session.
For example, the confidence to build relationships with senior stakeholders was one objective. With coaching and handy practical tips I achieved in a short space of time what I thought would take years. Thank you Sue.
Leila Arangi, Human Resources Business Partner, Barclays Bank
You were wonderful with/for me as you made opening up to you very easy.
I had never been coached before and without the experience – that is learning to talk about myself and my feelings, verbalising and analyzing them and planning forward – I don’t know how I would have coped with the last year.
You gave me a solid foundation on which to build. I liked your flexibility; your ability to respond to whatever I threw out; your sensitivity to my ‘pace’. I liked the non stuffy kind of professional approach and the fact that the perceptions were enabling for both work and private life.
Dr Felicity Binns, Executive Director NGO
Sue is a very effective coach who has enabled me to improve and succeed through focused, objective analysis of my performance and identifying action points that are relevant and achievable.
She has demonstrated that she is familiar with the political, structural and organisational issues that are involved in the workplace and uses this effectively during our meetings.
She has been able to deal with all the problems that I have sought help on. Her insight has helped me to reflect on various aspects of the issues by seeing them from a different perspective.
Head of Risk and Regulation, Local Government
Sue and I have worked on several projects together since 1992. Sue is very successful. Clients really appreciate her ability to achieve the agreed outcomes with them and more. They always want her back.
She is friendly, a great communicator and incredibly pragmatic. She is able to see what needs to be done and is capable of helping others achieve it for themselves.
As a colleague she makes a full contribution, is tremendous fun and a marvellous supporter of others. I cannot praise her too highly.
Alison O’Mahony, Coach, Consultant and Management Trainer. Thomas Preston and Associates
Sue is a good listener. Through a series of discussions she helped me distil my natural attributes and my strengths and weaknesses.
She then assisted me to raise my game in management and leadership by getting me to focus on my strengths and to build strategies to leverage those. She is insightful and practical – a great combination for a coach.
Marketing Director, Financial Services
I have employed Sue as a coach and facilitator in 3 different firms because of her outstanding ability to work with people at all levels and to deliver work that drives business performance.
Sue helps people to operationalise business strategy and to enhance the contribution to their firm. Sue has high professional and ethical standards and gains the trust and respect of those she works with.
HR Director, Financial Services
