Fiona is excellent at coaching, bringing useful experience, listening skills, empathy and ability to challenge constructively.

Helpful for slowing down, stepping away from the heavy workload, and thinking more strategically about my development as a manager/leader/influencer. Fiona was great. She asked a lot of good questions to get me thinking and offered plenty of helpful advice.

Fiona has been instrumental on my journey, puts you at ease which has ensured I have been open and honest and also given me ways to rephrase things and think about how I get my message across with others.

Fiona was excellent at listening and helped me make suggestions for improvements in my leadership shift. I felt fully supported and more confident in myself by the end of the session. I have gained more confidence and self-belief. Fiona enabled me to look at things from a different point of view, encouraging me to be better. Recommendations on a variety of theories were also suggested and now I am striving to be the better leader, with the intent of inspiring others and motivating the team towards a bright future. Thank you for all your help.

I have been able to identify the change I am trying to make as a manager and break it down. This was really helpful to reinforce the change and to refresh myself on the ‘why?’ behind the change. I have previously focussed on the ‘what am I trying to change?’ in coaching sessions, so the ‘why?’ was quite powerful. Personally, I need to have more regular coaching sessions so that I keep focussed.

I felt that Fiona really listened to what I was saying and was able to replay my thought back to me in quite a coherent way, which really helped me to understand what I was thinking and feeling. She was friendly and I enjoyed our conversations. She was also able to use examples of her experience to help me understand my personal context.

Focus on how I can empower myself to free up the time I need to support the businesses growth ambitions.

Improved my leadership skills to better manage my business.

We worked on personal brand and it actually seemed to work! Great sessions.
