“Charlotte’s coaching has been a game changer for me and my career, she gave me simple and intuitive techniques that have harnessed my personal strengths, making me a radically more effective communicator. She did something remarkable, she enabled me to use my personality and what is unique about me to better communicate.  This is coaching that I will use for the rest of my life.”

“Over my 30+ years in senior positions, the coaching you provide, and the way you are providing it, is some of the most valuable of my career.  The focus on how I am physically representing myself and how to provide information in the way people best understand and remember is truly invaluable.  Thank you.”

A huge thank you to you to and your team for all the wonderful work you did to help me get here. It really has been a magical journey – and whilst being promoted is a proud achievement – I really think the work we did has set me up for far bigger things. I can’t thank you enough for your wisdom and training – and I really hope we can continue to work together in the future, particularly in the approach to my next goal of Partner.

I just wanted to let you know that I have been promoted to MD a few weeks ago.  Your training and advice was critical in achieving this and I wanted to thank you both for the time we spent together (which I feel also helped me grow at a personal level).

The session was fantastic and totally changed the way I approached the meeting, and, as a result I gave a much better impression than I would have done otherwise. Instant impact!​

I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for the fantastic training over the past few months. I’ve had many in-person presentations in the past 2 weeks, all have gone extremely well, and I felt confident in how I delivered the content and carried myself.  I just had a call with the MD of a large retail client who said the way I chaired the meeting was impressive and that one day I’ll be a senior partner!”​

Today went BRILLIANTLY! I really don’t think it could have gone any better. I am buzzing - I felt that I finally got to show some personality whilst delivering important messages. One colleague came up to me at lunch and said she loves how I present as though I’m talking to her rather than making a presentation.  I was very happy with that”

“Thank you very much for today's training.  I found it tremendously practical and have been testing the various tools as if they were a new toy I’ve been given.  I hope I get the chance to work with you again and, in the meantime, thank you again for helping me get better at something that I really struggle with.  It’s five stars from me!”
