Having worked with Vicky for three years, I can happily say the coaching I have received was exceptional.  On many occasions she offered me challenging, honest and inspiring points both for my work life and my  personal life. She brought clarity to what it truly meant to be a leader which in turn helped me build a  winning team. Many of the discussions we have had are vital reference points for my day to day  decisions and form the basis of my strategic plans. 

I’ve worked with Vicky over the past 5 years in both post acquisition and turnaround situations. Vicky has  been both my coach and mentor throughout this time and she takes a multi-dimensional approach to  the organisation focusing on culture and engagement, management accountability, operational  excellence, efficiencies & cost control as well as commercial excellence and leveraging commercial  opportunities. 

Vicky brings high energy and honesty to every situation, never being afraid to ask the difficult questions  that need to be asked but always being sensitive to people’s fears during significant organisational  change. She is a big advocate of V/T – value over time, how much value are we getting for the amount  of time we are spending on something and is never afraid to challenge the leadership team to drop  treasured meetings when she demonstrates how little value they’re creating. 

Vicky brought all this along with a sense of humour that made both senior leaders and shop floor  operators feel comfortable in her presence and willing to accept challenges and change because they  believe in her vision of a better future. 

I can’t recommend Vicky highly enough for any organisation looking at Leadership Development or a  significant Organisational Change.

As a coach I have learned such a lot from Vicky and appreciate all the support. She gently pushed me out  of my comfort zone helping me become a more confident and assured manager.

Vicky mentored and grew our full team through mutual respect and trust. She has a special insight into  people knowing what makes them tick and what triggers to press. She has repeatedly given us the  benefit of intelligent choice and provided the insights and learnings on where to use them. Vicky stands  for professionalism, integrity, sound management and promoting development with improvement and  efficiency throughout.

Vicky’s reputation as someone who always got results preceded her and scared me a little. From day  one, she listened, she coached, she challenged and has made me a better leader – more than I thought  I was capable of. She is without doubt the most inspirational leader I have ever had a privilege of  learning from. As a team we are collectively better and stronger as a result of her always putting people  at the centre of all she does.

I am a better more developed leader as a result of  her coaching and development

Vicky led the shaping and direction of the European Operations Development programme for current and  future leaders with true passion, knowledge and insight. After aiding the delivery of the programme, the  comments coming back from the candidates were truly outstanding. Vicky’s energy and inspiration is  infectious and this is what our leaders shared with us. We will continue the programme and hold tightly  onto Vicky’s vision and enthusiasm aiming to channel as much of her energy as we can into future  modules. She brought such useful reminders and important life and career messages.

Vicky brought something to this business that had been missing, great leadership and coaching with  people at its core. Her understanding of how to get then best out of everyone is a skill only a few  possess. Some talk about it but she lived, breathed and coached it in detail.

Vicky is in the top 3 most influential people I have ever met. What I have learned from her about life  and people has been equal to any business skill. She has played a massive part in making the last 4 years  the best in my life yet. I’ll never forget that and cannot thank her enough. My career has gone from  strength to strength on the back of my learnings.
