"KP has supported us to be more effective as a team at a much faster pace than could have happened without her assistance.  I believe this has already had business benefit." 

MY CLIENTS SAY...

“Trust has really grown since working with KP.  The team was disjointed, and a little sceptical at the outset.  KP instantly put everyone at ease.  She is excellent at quickly assessing people’s unique skills and then finding innovative ways to support them to develop greater self awareness and to build on areas if they feel they need to.  We now work more effectively together and have better, more positively challenging and growth conversations, facilitated by the environment of mutual trust that has been established.”
H.F.
“KP worked with us to find areas of connection in a new team unused to working together. She created the space to help us understand our different styles of working and build a cohesive and effective leadership team.   She has been a super-effective coach in helping to establish a joined up and confident team.  Building an insightful rapport with each member that plays to their strengths has helped them nurture the talent in their teams, along with building an effective leadership team.”

Really enjoyed the first session and ended up honing on something that has been troubling me for a while. Left the session with a clear intent to try an approach to change things for the better. I will definitely book another session with Kathryn as I think there was plenty more we could have explored.
H.W.
“Before starting coaching with KP I was unfocused and downbeat.  KP helped me define clear goals, work to milestones and encouraged me to look forward and feel energised again.  KP builds strong relationships with her clients and works to their strengths, without losing focus.  I’ve felt the very positive impact of her approach.”
Judith Everett
My personal experience of working with you was all I needed to know that you deserve your Professional Certified Coach achievement from the ICF (International Coaching Federation). You’re the best coach I ever experienced working with.
A.V.
“KP’s straightforward and uncompromising, yet flexible approach has really helped our fractured team to face some difficult times and address some major issues.  She took a methodical approach working individually, then in pairs and only bringing the whole team together when everyone was ready.  The key breakthrough has been in understanding the root cause of most of the tension and being clear on accountability, which has improved dynamics.  I really valued KPs’ ability to not let anyone off the hook and to hold their feet to the fire.  Despite the difficult discussions, she also managed to inject some fun into a tough group as well!”

I began working with KP when I was a few years into my first CEO role. I had been on a steep learning curve and the move into the role had been difficult at times, but I had been doing a good job. I knew I wanted to continue to learn and grow in the role, and I had been set some challenging objectives by the board to improve my personal impact. I had no idea how to do that and I lacked confidence in my ability to achieve the goals. Working with KP, she didn’t try to teach me; she worked with me as an individual and gave me the tools and insight I needed to find out how I can be a great CEO. She helped me see things from different perspectives so that I am better able to understand how others view me and how my actions influence others’ perceptions. She has also helped build my confidence, which has made a massive difference to me both personally and professionally. I knew I could trust KP to be honest with me about what was working and, perhaps more importantly, what wasn’t. Overall, the changes in me have made me a far more effective and impactful chief executive.
Leigh Pearce
“KP’s approach is considered, tailored and caring.  I had limited awareness of my own impact and she has opened my eyes to new ways of thinking and behaving.”
P.W.
“KP’s coaching was a key enabler to making tough and challenging decisions during a significant work/life transition.  Her caring support made the journey possible.  KP is adept at encouraging both self-awareness and understanding at what is driving the change or creating the block, so that you can work your way through it.”
L-A.C
“Following complex structural and strategic transformation a new team with an aggressive change agenda was formed.  KP was instrumental in helping and coaching the team to become integrated and high performing, with the ability to work collaboratively across competing agendas. This has undoubtedly had an impact on the team’s ability to work as a strategic business partner and has resulted in greater impact through improved collaboration and integrated team delivery.”
L-A.C.
“I have always felt personally supported by KP who is very good at the occasional phone call or message to make sure you are ‘on track’.  KP supported me when I was new to the business, under immense pressure to create successful change, but I was unclear about the best way to be effective in the organisation.  KP’s coaching supported me in navigating a new culture and developing myself, and my career.  When I joined the company some years ago, I would never have predicted I would get this far. I would not have been able to do it without the coaching I have had from KP.”
Ben Stimson
Incredibly valuable experience. Kathryn was extremely insightful, understood me and my situation immediately, and helped me gain a much deeper understanding of how I can move forwards.
