Testimonials

Gurpreet Manku, Deputy Director General and Director of Policy, BVCA

“Andy’s approach to the coaching programme was tailored and well structured. I liked the way he incorporated tools and research on leadership and effective teams into our discussions. His supportive, yet challenging, style helps to guide you when solving challenges and thinking about [future] strategy”.

Phil Haslam, CTO, TalkTalk
“We have worked with Andy over the last 18 months to drive performance and productivity across the Tech & Security leadership team.

Andy’s insight, wisdom and constructive challenge has been brilliant. He has really helped me and my team build on our strengths, face into our development areas and recognize the contributions we individually and collectively make to the wider organisation.

Most certainly would recommend Andy to support your own growth and development.”

Andy Brown, CEO, ENGAGE Group
“I’ve worked with Andy as my coach for two years and he’s had a huge impact, both professionally and personally. He asks great, challenging questions and always got to me to think from a new perspective about our deepest business and organisational issues. I’d wholly recommend Andy’s coaching approach to any senior executive”.
VP Operations, Global Hospitality Company
“Andy has accompanied me for around 8 months and very diligently guided me in becoming aware of my most hidden behavioural stumbling blocks.

His subtle but very persistent approach assisted me in successfully climbing some high mountains, learning whilst doing and generally become a more respected and successful leader of the team.

I am looking forward to working with Andy again in the very near future”.

CIO, Global Insurance Business
“Andy has been working with me since early 2020 and through that time has helped uncover many  valuable insights into myself and my working practices.  We have spent time thinking about communication, presence/impact, influence, getting the best from my team and managing senior relationships.

 

I still regularly refer to the various tools and approaches we discussed.

 

Andy is very easy to work with. He challenges you when needed and provides support proactively. It was particularly helpful to get comprehensive notes following each session to ensure clarity of action and next steps.

 

Working with Andy has made a massive difference to me. His process is incredibly effective”.

VP Marketing, Global FinTech Business
“It’s difficult to express how powerful this experience has been. Andy created the space and time for me to find the answers to issues that have been getting in the way for years. I’m amazed at how quickly and successfully I was able to put changes into place and the difference those changes have made, both in and outside of the work environment”
Head of Strategy, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging - Central Government Department
“As job-share partners we wanted to get the most out of our relationship and how to harness our strengths.  Working with Andy gave us a new perspective on each other and also how others may perceive working with us, making us a stronger unit”.
Marketing Consultant, London
“Working with Andy has been a fascinating learning process.  He’s extremely knowledgable and astute and has challenged me to think differently about long-held beliefs.  It has not always been easy, but the process has been enlightening and rewarding.  Through Andy’s coaching I have improved my day-to-day performance by focusing on outcomes and I have seen the benefits both professionally and personally. It has been a life-changing process, one that I highly recommend”.
Head Teacher, Gloucestershire
“Working with Andy allowed me to challenge my own thinking and beliefs, see situations from a variety of viewpoints and gave me permission to give myself time as a leader.”
General Manager, Global Hospitality Company
“I have had four amazing coaching sessions with Andy with many question marks in my mind at the beginning of the first one whether this would actually help. The really great thing about Andy and his coaching style is that he takes you on a journey of reality-checking between your strengths and weaknesses, holds a mirror up and allows you to discover yourself. 
I will forever remember myself trying to fight the fact Andy plainly puts in front of you while I was already fully convinced deep inside. Andy lets you first lose then find yourself with his remarkable technique that will always amaze me…”
General Manager
“Andy’s coaching helped me to reflect on myself and find my best abilities professionally and personally and utilise them to the full. Questions that I have had to ask myself with his guidance – made me the leader I am now – strong, passionate and composed. I am proud where this journey has taken me so far! Thank you!”
General Manager, Global Hospitality Company
“An eye opener on how to unlock my full potential. Andy’s support and guidance throughout the process, made me believe in my strength while being conscious of behaviours to improve on.”
