“I began working with John during a time of great transition as I had moved into a role with a much wider remit which was both challenging and demanding. John enabled me to build my confidence and self-belief and my improved self-esteem enabled me to lead with confidence. The breadth of John’s experience meant he could fully understand my challenges and he helped me to master the leadership techniques and practices that optimised my performance and minimised stress.
With John’s support, advice and encouragement I emerged from the coaching as a much calmer and more resilient person who was ready to handle the many demands of my new role.”
