"I have been coached by Catherine over several months, and have benefited greatly. Catherine is always exceptionally well prepared for all of the sessions and is the consummate professional in all that she does. She possesses a natural coaching style which allowed me time to think, but also questioned my assumptions and comments appropriately and deeply. Both my work as a Chief Executive and my personal life have benefited through working with Catherine. I would have no hesitation in recommending Catherine as an Executive Coach or for more general Board development work."
Divisional CEO, private sector
“On returning to my demanding role after a year’s maternity leave I was keen to ensure that I achieved the right balance between work and family life and that I put in place some strategies and techniques to ensure that I made the best use of my time. The one to one work that I have done with Catherine has been immensely helpful in achieving this. Her honest and straightforward style together with the very effective exercises that she uses in the coaching sessions helped me gain confidence to deal with the changing environment that I worked in while also changed my thinking so that I could find solutions to problems and barriers that I had to confront. I would very much recommend this style of development to managers who want to overcome barriers that affect their performance and ability in the workplace.”
Senior Civil Servant, Department for Education
“I have found the coaching sessions with Catherine extremely useful in terms of obtaining new perspectives on issues and clarifying thinking. The coaching is action orientated and has been very productive. I would recommend Catherine as an excellent Executive Coach.”
Managing Director, private sector
"Catherine has advised me on the formulation of the L&D strategy for the UK Fundraising Department. This has included delivering specialist group work and individual coaching for middle and senior managers. She has a supportive yet challenging approach which has helped to significantly improve the team’s capability and performance resting as it now does on a shared set of behaviours and values. The journey has been rewarding and enjoyable and the improvements tangible in just 12 months.”
UK Director of Fundraising, leading UK charity
“After just one session with Catherine, I returned to work armed with a range of coping strategies to help me get the most out of my work. Coaching clearly enabled me to shift my mindset and become more productive and positive in my working relationships.”
London Deputy Headteacher
“Thanks to Catherine’s challenging and supportive approach, I now have a better understanding of why I do things and what triggers unhelpful behaviours. Suddenly I have new choices for responding differently which is paramount in this climate of change”
