Testimonials

"Simon recently ran a workshop for my team which explored people's motivations and helped them identify their values. It was a really thought provoking session, which had a high level of engagement . The team found it hugely positive and it prompted a lot of discussion and sharing of insights.

Simon's style is very engaging and his approach got the team on board with the process really quickly. A number of the team have since connected with Simon for further development in this space. I highly recommend for a team who want to learn more about what is important to them as individuals."

Jo, Head of Brand Innovation

"My time working with Simon was amazing. It was thought provoking, insightful and I learned a huge amount about myself.

I reached out to Simon as I had previously received feedback on the back of a couple of unsuccessful job applications, which resulted in a lack of confidence, and subsequently led to a drop in motivation and performance.

As a coach Simon started with going over practical information which helped answer any questions I had. During the sessions I always had the space to think, and talk openly, with Simon probing where necessary. These probes made sure I didn’t just focus on surface level thoughts, but dig deep into what I do and why I do it.

As a result of these sessions I now have frameworks ready to use when facing adversity. These frameworks allow me to get the best out of the situation I am in and ensures I move forward with purpose – and this has instilled a huge amount of self confidence in me.

My work performance has improved since these sessions. I’m now able to focus on the tasks which give me more energy, meaning my motivation is at an all time high point. I would definitely recommend Simon as a coach for anyone going through something similar to me."

Kim, Procurement Manager

"My coaching experience with Simon was one that I could whole-heartedly endorse and recommend. Simon was very diligent in allowing me to drive the narrative whilst being an excellent judge of when to interject, question or provoke in order to broaden the scope of the conversation.

When beginning coaching I was approaching a pivotal point in my career and these sessions inspired me to leverage my values, fears and purpose to drive a confidence which played a part in successfully navigating that point. The sessions will leave me with a lasting habit of self reflection and focus on growth through reliving the steps/processes taken with Simon."

"Simon played a pivotal role in helping me understand the next step in my career plan. His engaging style and simple exercises allowed me to take my time and truly enjoy the process.

The exercise he provided was instrumental in unlocking the direction I wanted to pursue. These insights are not only valuable for my immediate career move but also for my entire career and life trajectory.

Clare, Supply Quality Engineer

"I cannot recommend Simon enough as a coach, and I thank him for helping me clarify and overcome very important topics that have been holding me back over several years!

After working with Simon for only four sessions, I was able to fully articulate my values and take concrete actions and progress against clear focus areas. I have finally taken the first step towards my previously unspoken dream of helping more young finance professionals. I have lost a stubborn 4 kg I have been carrying for several years, and I have laid the foundation for improving my most important relationship."

Pieter, Global Audit Leader

"Working with Simon helped to understand what is truly meaningful to me and to dwell into some of my insecurities. Simon creates safe space. There is a lot of self-exploration work that he delicately guides you through. I have a much clearer view on what success look like for me when it comes to my career and how I can be more deliberate in pursuing it."

Yuliya, Marketing and Innovation Manager

"Simon has been an outstanding coach, helping me achieve both personal and professional growth over the past few months. His clear approach distinguishes coaching from other self-improvement methods, using step-by-step exercises that drive tangible results and lasting mindset shifts.

What makes Simon exceptional is his patience, open-mindedness, and willingness to understand the core of the problem. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to make meaningful, positive changes, from health improvements to career advancements!"

Komal, Luxury Brand Manager

"Simon helped me bridge the gap between my personal and professional values, and showed me how to use them as strengths at work. He has a real gift for breaking things down and making the intimidating feel totally manageable. Insightful, approachable, and genuinely effective."

Menen, Manufacturing Manager

"Simon provided me with a different perspective on my fears and anxieties, giving me personalized tools to get to the root of the issue and manage them effectively. I was used to generic coping methods, but Simon's approach was tailored to me, which made it incredibly useful. The coaching experience helped me confront my issues head-on, rather than hiding from them, and knowing I had a non-biased coach to support me was invaluable.

"Simon is very approachable, easy to speak to, and made it easy for me to open up. His coaching method was extremely useful—he’d provide nuggets of wisdom or unlock new ways of thinking, often without me even realizing. I also really appreciated how we always reviewed what we discussed, and Simon’s ability to retain conversations from weeks ago was a huge benefit."

Tali, Global Risk Manager

"Working with Simon provided me with a non-biased space to share my situation, have someone truly listen, and be challenged to think more deeply. Through our sessions, I went from feeling unsettled and easily swayed by others' opinions to gaining clarity on my own values, wants, and needs. I was empowered to hold my leadership team accountable for setting conditions for my success and to create a development plan that felt clear and aligned with my non-negotiables.

I feel calmer overall, less pressured to do everything myself, and much more comfortable pushing back on my accountabilities. The ‘empowering beliefs’ exercise was a bit uncomfortable at first, but it’s been really grounding. The values scoring was eye-opening—I’ve recommended it to others going through similar challenges.

Simon was a great coach—fair, challenging, and supportive. I’d definitely work with him again."

Hollie, Senior Brand Manager

"The coaching with Simon allowed me to realise some hidden truths about myself and understand why I think in certain ways. He helped me overcome limiting beliefs and provided me with tools to continue forging new cognitive pathways."

A major breakthrough for me was learning to manage my lack of confidence and the tendency to be too hard on myself. Now, I take a step back and consider what others might think or do in the same situation. I’ve learned that no one will care if I get an answer wrong or don’t know something.

Since working with Simon, my presence in meetings has improved significantly. I’ve started finding my voice and contributing more confidently.

"One of the most impactful strategies was noting down my successes and reviewing them whenever I’m feeling inadequate or lacking confidence. This simple exercise has been a game-changer.

Simon is an excellent coach—personable, easy to open up to, and always reassuring."

Simon, HR Manager

"Simon’s coaching provided a safe space for me to explore the challenges in my professional life. I entered the sessions lacking clarity on my career path but left with far more confidence in my strengths and the direction I want to take.

One of the biggest breakthroughs was overcoming my self-limiting beliefs. Simon helped me view myself and my potential in a more positive light, which has been a game-changer for my career.

Simon’s approach is truly effective – he listens deeply and picks up on things I might not have thought important, helping me see new perspectives. His ability to create a trusting space while keeping us focused on the goal made a real difference."

Neil, Talent Engagement Manager

"Before we began the coaching sessions, I was struggling with low confidence after returning from family leave and had difficulty managing my time and prioritizing effectively. The coaching experience helped me gain increased confidence and provided clearer direction. By reflecting and challenging my internal thoughts, I was able to unlock some of the mental barriers I had created.

As a result of the sessions, I created momentum for change. I started thinking differently about my development and strengths, which ultimately helped me secure a new role. My confidence continues to grow each week, and I now feel more confident in my abilities and more resilient in the workplace.

The strategies that have had the most lasting impact are time blocking, taking time for reflection, and challenging my inner thoughts. Simon really challenged me to think on my own, which was uncomfortable at times but an important skill for my development."

Jade, Strategy Project Manager

"I felt burnt out and de-motivated, but I couldn't pinpoint why. Simon provided me with not only a considerable amount of time and energy but also the space to work things out.

Through our sessions, I was able to identify where I wanted to be and how to get there. Simon created a safe space for me to brain dump, talk through my thoughts and worries, and then provided practical advice to help me make real changes.

As a result, I made significant time management changes that have positively impacted my career. I’ve just secured a role outside of my current function, which I’m thrilled about.

I highly recommend Simon to anyone at a crossroads who needs help refocusing."

Antonia, L&D Manager
