Manager, Laterooms
"I now feel comfortable and confident providing feedback to my team, and feel a lot more positive. I felt I learned a great deal."
“Just wanted to say a big thank you as I have already used some of the strategies I learned and they really work for me. I had lost confidence in my ability, and it’s coming back! I have suggested to senior management here that we investigate asking you to do a session for the staff here... I honestly think that many people would benefit."
“If you hadn't helped me at the lowest time, I may not have got back in the saddle so wanted you to know that you have made a massive difference and I won't forget it.”
“My coach provided precise and analytical questioning that encouraged me to resolve my own questions (with guidance). He did not tell me what to do, instead he questioned my questioning, probed my answers and challenged my preconceptions.”
“The insights I gained have changed my thinking and improved everything for me”
“My coach was authentic and very understanding. I valued their honesty and ability to make me look inwardly to find the answer!”
Senior Lecturer, Bolton College
"After just two hours, I can honestly say I left feeling more clear and enlightened about approaches to managing workplace development and team dynamics than I thought possible."
“The coaching was - and still is - literally life-changing. Arnie cut to the real issues like a laser, combining his considerable expertise with uncannily accurate instincts. With his support I've become comfortable tackling challenges that were previously unthinkable; Arnie helped me ignite a new career and new-found confidence. A died-in-the-wool perfectionist, I don't recommend anyone without caveats - but Arnie is one exception.”
