“I have never had professional coaching before and I was initially unsure how to approach it. However, Niccie very quickly helped me to understand how it could benefit me, and also what I needed to put into it.

Niccie enabled me to think carefully about what I felt my development needs were, and encouraged me to delve into specific examples. This gave me the opportunity to identify tangible ways to adapt and enhance my leadership style and approach to work. After 20 years in my career, being able to trial different ways of working and put new methods into practice has helped me to move beyond theoretically knowing how I could improve, to making lasting change that has had a notable impact on my own, and my team's performance. With this my confidence and belief in my own ability has grown.”

Nicola has been incredible to work with across the last 6 months and has been invaluable to the positive changes I have made to the way I work. Her knowledge and ability to make me dig deeper for the answers has meant that we didn't waste time on surface level issues but got down to the core of what needed to be reviewed, developed and implemented. Sessions were expertly planned to maximise our time together and we had plenty of laughs along the way. She created a great experience that has led to impactful change and learning skills I will take with me in the future.

The coaching process helped me to recognise the patterns in thinking and behaviour that were limiting my professional progress, and hampering my enjoyment of work - even areas I am passionate about. Having someone to guide you in how you think about work helps to deliver the clarity needed to move forward. It's an incredibly valuable experience, and Nicola is an insightful coach.
