“I think coaching is more effective than a course. A 2-day course is interesting but when I get back in the office I easily go back to many of my old ways. I worked with my coach over 6 months so I have changed my processes and habits in many way – how I structure my planning, how I manage stress and problem situations, how I approach new projects, how I cooperate with my colleagues.” UN, Conoco Phillips
“First we saw coaching as a professional development tool… Once we had experience of it, we were excited by the power of the coaching process.” SB, Newcastle Local Authority
“My coach contributed language, enthusiasm and inspiration – questions that made me think in new ways.” AS, Carlsberg Group
