Gill is an excellent coach. Her distance support for me, when studying for Chartered Manager status, was invaluable. Her feedback was always direct, fair and challenging, yet inevitably accurate. I would wholeheartedly recommend Gill to anyone. Phil Sproston, National Field Sales Controller, Allied Bakeries
Gill helped me overcome the panic of my impending redundancy and calmed my fears about my future career opportunities. By using straightforward and logical techniques she showed me how to bring out the best of myself, using the positives and working on the negatives to help me target a career I would be happy doing
. Always positive, Gill was very easy to get along with and I would highly recommend her coaching abilities. Iain Edinburgh
In just three months, Gill helped me to realise my full potential and gave me sight of many opportunities and personal qualities I never knew I had till then. I am now confident in what I want to do in the future and thanks to Gill I also am sure that my career choice is an appropriate and well informed one. I am very grateful to Gill for all that she has done for me. Olga Edinburgh
I found meeting up with Gill invaluable in helping me clarify my goals for now and the future - this has recently helped me secure a new job and promotion, and, more importantly, feel confident I am headed in the right direction! Tim, Edinburgh
Gill is an accomplished career coach and with her coaching I managed to become more aware of my values and what I want from a job, in a very congruent fashion. She has a lovely energising voice which kept me working to get to the results I wanted, and she never gives advice, so I knew the decisions I arrived at came from me.
I particularly liked the structure and flexibility of the sessions; there is plenty of material to work through in a logical manner, and Gill's skills in coaching meant we could take a tangent I needed to solve another problem in order to get around and minimise a barrier to the career decisions. She has a lot of experience to draw upon, so I knew I was in safe hands and could trust the outcomes of her well tested methods. Julie Dumfries
I enjoyed the career coaching sessions I had with Gill and gained a great deal from them; certainly much more than I anticipated. Not only did I develop a training plan for myself, I reassessed my strengths and weaknesses and thus career. As a bonus I also worked hard on my communication skills, improving my confidence and became increasingly relaxed in myself and my abilities. After following Gill's coaching, some guided reading, hard work and taking time out to do some deep thinking, I approached my manager to discuss my future and during this difficult and uncertain period of unprecedented cutbacks she is making my position permanent. Jean,Edinburgh
I very much recommend the career coaching experience I had with Gill as part of personal development. It helped me to reflect better on myself and know what is really important to me. Sometimes you need a little confirmation to know that you are actually doing all the right things to get you where you need to be to shine at your best. It is good to have somebody that helps you look at yourself with a fresh pair of eyes and encourages what makes you. I found Gill very easy to get on with and very focused on what I wanted to get out of my coaching sessions. Gwen, Edinburgh
