Paul has been my excellent coach for 8 fun filled sessions over 6 months. His gentle coaching took me through a discovery process and helped me to sort out my thinking. He listened thoughtfully and skillfully directed our conversations. His light-hearted approach and critical questioning accelerated my learning about what I need to do to become a NED.

I have just completed 3 months of coaching from Paul and I have to say that during those 3 months of training I have never enjoyed or looked forward more to having a coaching session as I did with Paul. Going into the start of the coaching I had reservations of what I was going to achieve during it however, after the first session I instantly knew that this was going to be a great journey. Paul proved to be such a positive coach who really got me to think about who I am and what I can achieve and this was all done with such positive energy coming from Paul. Paul really makes you engage your thought mode and there is no doubt that I have become a more rounded leader who is confident and not willing to compromise. Paul is a coach who really inspires you to become the best you can be. I would recommend any leader who is looking to develop their leadership qualities to book in some sessions with Paul, you will not regret it.

I found Paul to be very professional and on the ball. He is alert, makes very good observations and gives feedback in a very constructive manner. He has great leadership skills and picks up on HR issues which others have not picked up on. I have found the reading material he has recommended of great value. Paul has a great sense of humor and communicates very empathetically. He is firm where needed. Paul has been a great sounding board. Giving his honest views and opinions always. In a nutshell he is on the top of this game.

Paul has coached me through my transition to a portfolio career, and I can honestly say it was one of the most rewarding professional experiences I have had. Paul is empathetic, challenging, energetic, humorous, and has an enormous wealth of experience to draw on. His easy-going style was accompanied by a laser-focus on encouraging me to step outside my comfort zone. I enjoyed every minute, even when he put me on the spot with difficult questions, and most importantly, I have gained a great deal from the process both professionally and personally. I’d recommend Paul to anyone as a coach or colleague.

I have just completed my final coaching session (number 12) with Paul and would like to thank him for his coaching. The sessions with Paul have been a truly positive and thought-provoking experience. Over the year he has encouraged, challenged and pushed me to look at my career and experience to date, helping me toward my goal of moving into the NED world. Paul’s experience and guidance have been invaluable in focusing my thoughts and creating the tools I need to accomplish this. I’d recommend Paul to anyone as a coach, thank you Paul.
