“My coaching sessions have exceeded my expectations."
“My coaching sessions have exceeded my expectations. They have provided clarity on my options and a chance to reflect on current frustrations and future opportunities. Before the coaching I was considering if a move to a different organisation was appropriate to feel more fulfilled. The coaching sessions opened my eyes to the opportunities which exist for me already without a major change. This has been a really valuable experience.”
Communications advisor, major energy services company
"I feel more confident and have a clear direction as a result of the coaching.”
“I didn’t know what to expect before I had coaching but it has certainly exceeded my expectations. I felt unfulfilled and this affected many aspects of my life. Now, I recognise what I need to change and work on and have a clear way forward and I’m excited about my future career. Karen has a very good way of teasing things out and helped make me realise what I need to work on. In just six months I feel more confident and have a clear direction as a result of the coaching.”
Managing Director, marketing agency
“I really appreciated a different perspective to a situation that I'm stressed, nervous or overthinking about."
“I really appreciated a different perspective to a situation that I'm stressed, nervous or overthinking about. Coaching is the independent advisor to a situation that I cannot be myself. I always thought I just lacked confidence but learning about imposter syndrome was really eye opening for me. My job requires a pace of 100 miles per hour which often leads to last minute preparation. Karen encouraged me to take a minute, analyse the situation from a different perspective and really prioritise what needs to be done.”
Communications advisor, oil and gas operator
“With Karen’s support I gained a better understanding of what my role is..."
“With Karen’s support I gained a better understanding of what my role is and managed to focus on developing my ‘worth’ by verbalising my concerns. Karen took excellent notes and was able to ask questions on areas I had forgotten we had discussed that really help to focus my mind. I now have a better understanding of who I am in my role, what I contribute to the organisation and my value as an employee. Thank you Karen!”
Team leader, private sector organisation
"Coaching has exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Karen without hesitation.”
“Through my sessions with Karen, I have gained the confidence to drive things forward and have found it very encouraging to talk through the obstacles I face in my day-to-day role. Karen helps me to think about a situation in a different way that gives me confidence in my ability to do a great job. Coaching has exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Karen without hesitation.”
