What Our Clients Say
"I have worked with Brian for over 10 years and in that time Brian has been a high-value-add coach. He has always delivered impressive results in helping transform the business with which he is engaged. He is careful to understand the challenges facing the business, rather than addressing the symptoms of an underlying problem. His approach is to transform the organisation from within by a creating the correct culture and behaviours in employees across all levels of seniority. I have found his approach to be highly effective in delivering measurable and lasting business benefit."
Derek Brown
Director, Detica plc
"I had the opportunity to have Brian as a coach at a critical time in my career, when I was facing substantial changes in my level of responsibility. I was just appointed as company's president in a new country with a significantly larger business basis and for the first time in Europe.
Brian's approach allowed me to develop a clear plan for this step in my career and equipped me to build a solid foundation for my future career developments.
He helped me discover a series of insights that allowed me to not only work on my strengths and areas of opportunity, but also outline a clear action plan to tackle the challenges at the time.
All this was only possible due to a relationship built on trust that fostered a transparent exchange between both parties. I highly recommend Brian for any one that aspires to have a successful career."
Armando Henriques
President BG Brazil
"I have been working with Brian at a personal level for over three years. During that time he has been invaluable in helping me to work through many challenges in my organisation. Brian is extremely responsive and supportive, but also challenging when he needs to be. He is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with him in the future as well."
Ian Cramb
MD Citigroup
"I thoroughly enjoyed being under your coaching.
Your style of identifying my coaching needs and persuading me to trust your advice to try techniques beyond my comfort zone were very impactful.
Your techniques on selling using “fill the table”, “label the boxes” and “GRIP” are extremely powerful.
I continue to use them regularly and share with colleagues, friends and family.
Your fundamental beliefs on the “power of relationships” transformed my thinking and have helped me build lasting relationships - personal and business."
Sandeep Chouhan
CIO Barclays Bank plc
“Brian possesses a detailed understanding of senior leadership teams and their dynamics. He is not afraid to go in and tactfully but effectively challenge the way they work and support them to make changes and implement these. I was part of a two year programme which I worked with Brian to implement at one organization. I was so impressed by the changes in behaviour and way we operated so much more effectively as individual leaders and as a team, that I used him again in my next organization with similar results. Brian has also been my coach for several years and is a continual source of challenging and useful career advice.”
Shirley Adrain
Chief of Staff, Barclays Bank plc
“Brian is an excellent coach who is personable and engaging but not afraid to challenge and push the boundaries. His approach is very much results orientated which makes working with Brian feel like a true partnership. I am delighted to recommend him.”
Warren Foot
Senior Partner, London office, Blake Morgan LLP
"Brian has worked with me individually as an executive coach and with my business unit helping us to become more competitive, developing stronger teamwork and leadership effectiveness.
His focus on developing business results through stronger business relationships is a formula that has proven itself in many different contexts for me. I strongly recommend Brian and I will work with him again."
Ed Milton
Director, Detica plc
"We brought Brian in to assist our business division through a time when we were changing the culture and requiring the team to take a significant step up. He took time to understand us as a business, where we were and where we wanted to get to. His approach was practical and very effective, not the usual management speak, and enabled us to take a significant step forward."
