What Coaching Works' clients say

"Our staff have seen their coaching with Jason as a positive investment in their careers and personal development. They have taken learnings from the sessions, which they have started to test and apply in the real world. This has brought improvements to their performance. 

Coaching sessions have also stimulated staff to consider certain situations in detail and look at the ‘bigger picture’ before committing to certain decisions or providing advice, which provides a more measured and balanced approach. 

Furthermore, staff have fed back that ‘coping mechanisms’ are more readily available following sessions.

Jason has been able to provide helpful feedback to the Directors to help us guide our ADs, without compromising confidentiality of the one-to-one meetings.  

Feedback from ADs also highlights Jason’s meticulous approach to sessions and the ability to observe first hand how an experienced professional manages one to one meetings and scenarios which sets a fantastic example to those being coached.

"Jason created a very safe environment and held space with respect, presence and care. I felt he was exceptionally present throughout and made me feel like I was being truly heard and listened to. 

Jason facilitated learning really well – he has a calm way of reflecting key messages and I think this was significant in me becoming aware of the various variables that were impacting my situation. 

As mentioned above, Jason is calm and also positive in his demeanour and presence. I think this enabled me to take a moment to think through things and effectively reflect on what I was thinking and feeling. 

It was truly impactful coaching for me and I would recommend Jason to anyone who is seeking expert coaching. "

"Jason approached us with an idea of how he could help and due to the trust that both the Board and I had in Jason, we recognised that he had identified and solved the need for us as a business. 

The improvement in the staff member has been noticed across the business and most importantly by the individual themselves. The Board have fed back that they see much more leadership. 

I thoroughly recommend Coaching Works! 

The feedback from others that have used the service has been excellent too. "

"Sally-Anne has a warm demeanour and strength of skills, experience and confidence that delivered consistently over and above our requirements!

Sally-Anne soon became a very trusted and valued supervisor for our Mentors. Her guidance and strict adherence to, and knowledge of, policies and procedures - was second to none. 

We knew that we could rely on Sally-Anne at any time. 

Sally-Anne is one of the most professional, super-organised, knowledgeable, and warm-hearted persons I have ever come across. 

I can wholeheartedly recommend Sally-Anne for a multitude of reasons - you will be in very good hands if you work with her!"

"  Working with Jason through our sessions has been great. Typically, I have always been hesitant to engage in coaching of this kind but, with Jason’s knowledge, approach and experience within industry, it was something I looked forward to attending. The positive impact of his coaching on my development has been transformative. The impact of our sessions extends beyond just technical skills. His emphasis on mental preparation, strategic thinking, and resilience has equipped me with valuable tools that I can apply in various aspects of life. I feel more disciplined, focused, and capable of handling pressure, thanks to his holistic approach to coaching.

I want to commend Jason on his unwavering commitment to our progress as a team. His willingness to provide extra support, and embed himself within the business pressures, demonstrates his dedication to our success. I feel like he genuinely cares about our development, and this makes a significant difference in our motivation and drive. The positive changes I have experienced under Jason's guidance are a testament to his skill and dedication. I am excited to continue this journey and look forward to achieving even greater milestones with Jason's support. "

"Jason’s gentle, non-judgemental, and encouraging approach fostered a supportive space where I felt safe to explore scenarios openly and consider a range of possible outcomes. 

His ability to provide clarity and untangle complex thoughts was invaluable in helping me rebuild my self-confidence and trust in my own capabilities.

I can’t think of any improvements to suggest, only a wish to continue the coaching with Jason in the near future. 

I feel I have gained many personal and   professional learning points from my time with Jason. Notably acceptance of   vulnerability in the workplace is a personal development point for myself which I am far more conscious of now thanks to Jason. 

" I particularly appreciated the manner in which Jason challenged me. I was able to understand that this was done for various reasons, either to explore a different approach, or to direct our conversation in a manner which allowed me to consider whether my thoughts were founded on mistruths. 

I have become more confident as a leader, and in giving advice. I deal with issues of poor performance quicker and more swiftly. I am clearer of thought and mind now. 

I am absolutely satisfied with the experience. I have become more confident in myself, in my ability to address complex situations and as a manager and leader. "

"It is hard to overstate the positive impact that Sally-Anne has had on our organisation as a whole. 

She provided a safe space for reflection and development.

Furthermore, Sally Anne routinely went above and beyond to support us as an organisation and her expertise really helped us grow and develop in different areas.

Sally Anne is dedicated and professional with a sharp eye for detail, generous with her wide ranging knowledge and experience, immensely benefitting our organisation.

I thoroughly recommend Sally-Anne to other organisations and individuals!

YMM is so much the better for your unwavering support and incredible knowledge and experience that you brought to the organisation." 

 "The organisation is in a much stronger position thanks to Sally-Anne's expert knowledge and supervision services. With her support, our team feels more confident and resilient.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sally-Anne, she is a true professional - organised, knowledgeable, and very personable. She creates a supportive and constructive environment, making a real difference to those she works with. Her expertise and approach have been invaluable to our team, and I have no doubt that others would find her services just as valuable.

Sally-Anne provided everything we needed and more. She has always been more than willing to      help and offer advice on any additional topics, ensuring that we received the right support and guidance at all times. 

Her proactive approach and willingness to go above and beyond have been invaluable to us.

Her presence has made a lasting impact and the organisation is much stronger due to her work with us."

" Jason has delivered the coaching that has helped me develop and improve within my role as Managing Director. 

Jason has got me thinking more openly and looking at the bigger picture, when faced with a problem or an opportunity to implement a change in any aspect of the business.  

The questions Jason's asks, in a safe and trusted environment, helps me raise my awareness, encourages my reflection and learning, and brought me different perspectives.

A selection of the formal feedback that was received following a recent WiS group coaching session:

"I thought the session was brilliant and I realise I would benefit hugely from something similar on a regular basis, even 1-to-1."

"Really good, I enjoyed the session and it did give me confidence."
