Regional Operations Director
I have seen first-hand the benefits that Vicky brings. Following an acquisition where the cultural impact of integrating the acquired business into a much larger organisation was grossly underestimated, she devised and implemented a plan that actually 'saved' the business. She coached, mentored and developed the team. She develops each member to be their best and it is infectious.You will see people change and for the better. Vicky quickly gets to the core of the issues and lays them out and then lets the team make the changes.Everyone who works with her will be challenged in a way that will make them feel better about themselves and understand how and why their individual contributions are important. It’s a privilege to be a part of such a change.
European Finance Director
As a highly skilled Finance and Commercial Director, Vicky has coached me for 9 years.She has successfully helped me to bridge the gap between matter expert and truly effective, concise communicator with the ability to engage the room. During that time, we worked as a team to develop multi-functional business units to drive change and understand/value the impact on the bottom line turning around significantly underperforming businesses Personally, through Vicky’s mentoring, I have significantly increased my self-confidence and now understand my true worth to my business. This resulted in me expanding into a European role and increasing my remuneration by over 50% in the 9 years. I had always been a steely business negotiator but when it came to my own salary package, I was not! Vicky has helped change this in me for good. Vicky has a natural gift to understand people and ensure they develop into their best self and then bring that self into the organisation.
Production Manager
I have been fortunate to work with Vicky in two sperate businesses over the past 15 years. In both businesses I have witnessed Vicky lead enterprise-wide change programmes which ultimately changed the fortunes of each business. She has an unrivalled ability to take complex business scenarios and challenges and with an almost laser like precision identifies where the issue/opportunity lie and what needs to be done to drive success. Central to her approach to change is a commitment to engage the hearts and minds of all employees to unlock each businesses/team’s true potential and push the boundaries of what was thought to be achievable. From a personal point of view, my leadership capability has massively benefited from Vicky’s direct coaching and mentoring, working with my core values and key strengths Vicky has always offered mehonest, insightful, and inspiring coaching, which continues to underpin my approach to leading people. Vicky, without a doubt, has been the most influential leader I have worked with in my 30 years career and continues to be my go to person when I need an outside perspective.
President
I have always been impressed with Vicky’s knowledge of the business and markets, capability in running your organization, and focus on our customers.Additionally, her leadership and coaching across the team and Europe was evident—holding others accountable, but with a coaching, empowering and inclusive style. We owe her a lot for driving results while developing talent; as she moves forward to the next venture, she leaves behind a stronger business and team—that is true leadership and understanding of people.
Operational Excellence Lead
Vicky’s approach to business is very different to anyone else I have ever worked with but it definitely works. She brings people together as she guides them along their journey which is why I think she gains such respect. The teams she has coached are in a different league compared to where we started and that is all down to her and her approach. I have learnt a lot from her and I think I am a better person overall as bits of Vicky’s approach have rubbed off. I am sure she will go on to support, transform and develop other teams and organisations and whatever she is involved in will change for the better.
Site Operations Director
I recently had the pleasure of working for Vicky as part of a small team brought in to turn around an underperforming manufacturing site, which had been poorly integrated following acquisition. I can personally attest to Vicky's ability to coach a team to quickly identify key improvement areas, to document and track the critical actions and to set a stretching timescale for completion. A combination of empowering the team and providing direction, support and individual and collective coaching produced some exceptional results; far quicker than the executive team expected and believed was possible. From a personal perspective, Vicky coached me to become a better leader and effective communicator In particular, Vicky understands the importance of communication and employee engagement in achieving improved performance and has a skill set that ensures both these requirements are delivered. Ultimately, any business turnaround or post integration plan will require a change to the previous business and operational culture to ensure that improvements are sustained and Vicky makes sure that employees understand and deliver against these new expectations. Vicky is truly skilled in successfully and effectively delivering outstanding results in complex change situation
Leadership Coach
Strategic, Transformational, Influential, Commercial and People Centric!!!
Sales Manager
Even in a limited time, Vicky’s personal impact on me was huge; how she approaches things, the knowledge, the empathy and experience she speaks and acts with – in a short time she has had a huge influence on me. She is so very insightful – it is quite unique.
Operations Manager
I was initially wary and afraid of this person, having been influenced by senior people that were probably feeling intimidated and were questioning their own abilities. Then I became more involved with this person and I was still afraid and would feel the apprehension building when I had to sit in front of them and try and prove my worth. But then the light came on. This person isn’t wanting me to feel this way, they want me to grow. They want me to work to my potential and strive for better. They want me to be an integral cog in a highly functioning team. But, this individual is also a real person who has feelings, just like I and everyone else does. They are not afraid to share these thoughts and feelings and this is such a gift that when they do, we all feel like we are able to have common ground and understand a little bit of what makes an achiever tick. This is inspiring and has made me grow. I have the utmost respect and admiration for this person and I think that if we can all learn and replicate little bits of what they do, we can keep on growing. If we could have some of the energy, some of the drive, some of the tenacity of this person then we’ll do well. This person has helped me, has guided me and prepared me, unlike any role or mentor before and I will sorely miss them.
An influential leader and ‘a good human being’ who I admire and has made me a better person. – Vicky Brockley

Vicky is inspiring, has taught me a different approach and as a result I am a better manager, better leader and a better person.

Regional Purchasing Manager
Vicky believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. I am a better more developed leader as a result of her coaching and development
Regional Operations Director
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.
Customer Services Director
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.
HR manager
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
Key Account Director
Since Vicky’s very 1st presentation and during every interaction since, I can honestly say that even though we rarely worked closely, her coaching and impact in any situation has been inspirational to me. It goes without saying that you have a strong focus on results, but where you have really introduced a change in thinking in our business is with regards culture. People and engagement was never on the agenda until Vicky educated us on why it needs to be. People now believe in the merit of focussing on people engagement, and lo and behold, the results do come. It became so embedded in our culture that it is now just who we are and how we do business.
Regional Director
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.
General Manager
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.
