Business Coaching - Testimonials

"We were facing a particularly challenging time introducing a new product to market.  Internal and external customers were unhappy, and there was a real need to increase creativity of thought, better communication and team focus.

"Shona's style is one of high energy and enthusiasm, with a real focus on setting clear goals, developing a viable plan of action and gaining results.  Over time she engendered great team spirit, helped us develop creative solutions to the challenging issues we faced, and helped us improve our credibility and communication with both our internal and external customers.

"The result?  We increased our turnover by £2.5million, in a difficult market and regained and increased our credibility."

Noel Clarke, Group Product Manager, Pharma Company.

"Shona's enthusiasm is infectious, and produces considerable confidence and commitment to succeed in those around her.  Individual team members have shown marked improvements in performance and motivation as a result of her encouragement."

Steve Harrop, Business Unit Manager, Baxter Healthcare.

"Shona delivered a truly outstanding mentoring/coaching package to a broad range of managers at Southport and Ormskirk NHS Trust.  The work was exceptional and feedback from the participants has been amazing.  An exceptional facilitator."

Ruth Sharpe, University of Central Lancashire

"With some difficult issues to manage within our team, we needed someone to work with us, identify opportunities for change and build a greater sense of unity.  Shona has a very thorough, personable approach, spending some time prior to the workshop ensuring she understood the issues, and structuring a workshop which would have maximum impact and benefit.  The workshop was excellent. One of the best sessions we have had.  It was relevant, effective and thought provoking.  Thankyou."
