Don't just take our word for it...
Working with Fiona has been a breath of fresh air. She intuitively knew when to push on certain points that were subconsciously holding me back and when to challenge elements of my leadership style that weren’t serving me well. I valued her professional knowledge and experience which has led me to research that I wasn’t aware of previously. Her natural and engaging coaching style has helped my confidence grow and enabled me to have clarity of thought over future career paths and development needs.Kay Riddingtom, Chief Portfolio Officer – National Composites Centre.
