What people say

'I had the privilege of having Chris as my coach, I can't stress enough how great his support has been to me. Chris has an exceptional ability to listen, truly hear, and understand the challenges I faced. With his vast experience, he would often provide me with concrete examples, making his guidance both relatable and practical.'

'I've always admired Chris's honesty. He was straightforward about situations, which allowed me to see things from a clearer perspective. But what stood out the most was his kindness. In every interaction, Chris's genuine care and concern were evident, making him not just a coach, but a true ally in my career.
I would recommend Chris to anyone seeking a coach who brings a blend of experience, understanding, and genuine kindness.'

'Chris has the rare ability to see strategy through execution with his strong leadership and excellent managerial skills. A thorough professional, he places high importance on empowering his people and inspiring them to stretch and deliver. In times of crisis, his calm, balanced and sharp thinking often saved the day. I was particularly impressed with his curiosity and the ability to keep learning despite all that rich experience. '

'Chris is one of the most inspirational people I have ever worked with.  He is startlingly quick on the uptake, but will always ensure he has fully understood and explored the underlying issues before committing himself to a course of action. Chris is the sort of man who will step up to the mark and put his reputation on the line for something or someone he believes in. Action, inspiration, respect, trust and integrity - quite a package!'

'Chris is a truly inspirational leader. One of his best attributes is his ability to relate to colleagues and direct reports at all levels of the business, with credibility and a genuine interest in people. '

'Undoubtedly, the best boss I've ever had. Extremely supportive and a key facilitator to an ambitious manager. My team and I achieved huge things mainly due to the incredible support and environment provided by Chris to allow us to grow and suceed. Great fun to work for and with. A calming, no panic approach to the trickiest and most testing of situations. I learned so much.'
