I think you have a wonderful talent to get right the heart of an issue and help to decipher it in a very constructive way.

Director of Corporate Comms Feb 2011

Being listened to (really listened to) is a rare experience I find, and it’s wonderful when it happens.  This too gave me the sense of our having made some real progress.

Senior Manager  Dept Health

 Two weeks ago, I was given a promotion and a pay rise out of the blue and had my role formally ratified. I am definitely in a better place than I was four months ago. Our sessions were incredibly helpful

Senior Executive BG Energy Holdings

 Work has never been such fun, thank you for the insight, inspiration and company.

Director of Planning Local  Authority Jan 2011

Thank you so much for going completely beyond what was necessary or expected to help me rationalise some quite significant issues.
I always get such a sense of value and benefit from your encouragement and advice and tonight ever more so. I feel so in control and calm that I cannot begin to explain the sense of ‘future’

Strategic Command Course Participant Police Leadership College  2010

Everything looks brighter and shinier now – you are truly good for the soul! I have been fortunate enough to have Estelle as my coach for just over two years.  I believe there is a direct correlation between my positive development as both a person and a leader and the duration of this professional relationship.  I was good before I met Estelle; due to the work I have undertaken with her, I am even better now.

Senior Police Leader 2010

I felt that the meetings have given me the prompt I needed to think about where I am and how I want to progress, and the way you structured them and allowed me to find my way was just right for me. I was able to use them to think in broad terms rather than be very specific was perfect for me at the moment and again that’s down to your skill in steering the session.

Senior Leader Scottish University GH 2010

Sometimes, I wonder what more could I possibly know about myself – and then, we have a discussion and, like peeling an onion, I discover that there is another layer underneath. Your excitement at finding something fundamental to work on is a good example. I felt that I had examined all the options in this area. What you did was to go beyond the rather simplistic ‘techniques’ approach and took me into ‘approach’ and ‘self’.

Chief Constable  2010

Estelle and you have made me realise a number of important factors that contribute to my own sense of being which has enabled me to finally realise why I behave in certain ways………

Chief Police Leader 03/2010

I admired your early sensitive but penetrating and skilful questions which brought out his key issues and got us to a meeting that really mattered.

We have completed our restructure and I have the outcome I wanted. Many thanks for the coaching which helped restore my focus and confidence.
