“Through my coaching experience, I have developed a new, refreshed mentality to my role. I feel more focused on the progress that I want to make and have a clearer idea of how I will reach this. Metaphorically speaking, coaching has helped me identify my destination, given me the tools to build a road and now it’s up to me to do so! Pippa is friendly, welcoming and accommodating. We completed our sessions via Zoom, however, I do not feel that this compromised my experience at all. Our sessions were focused and well-grounded, using helpful tools and exercises to guide conversations and generate realistic, measurable outcomes. I genuinely believe that I will continue to utilise many lessons that I learnt from my coaching sessions throughout my career. ”

“Pippa has supported Pure with a number of our development programs and always delivered to a high standard with excellent delegate feedback. On a personal level I have benefited from working with Pippa as an executive coach which has helped me tremendously. She has the ability to make you source your own solution and work hard in her sessions to get to the route of the problem. She has helped me make some difficult decisions and taught me pragmatic techniques to use in an everyday business environment. As someone who perhaps didn’t even realise that coaching was what I needed, I would strongly recommend Pippa to anyone contemplating working with a coach.”

Director, Pure Resourcing Solutions
“Pippa’s coaching style is supportive, positive and focused. Her coaching style enabled me to talk through my own thoughts and ideas clearly and focus on specific areas to help me to achieve desired goals.”

“Pippa is a fantastic coach. She takes time to get to know you as an individual to enable her to tailor her coaching interventions to maximise their impact. Pippa has a wealth of HR knowledge and experience that she is able to draw on to assist you in resolving any business issues and I would recommend Pippa for any business or personal coaching needs.”

It was great having Pippa explore the capabilities of myself and the team at Symity. Pippa has great expertise in her field to the point where she knows every single trait by heart and talks around them with deep knowledge. You’ll learn a lot about yourself and your team with Pippa help. Highly recommended professional.

Pippa supported me as part of a leadership development course and I found her approach to be exactly what I needed, she provided excellent actionable advice when required but also had the ability to listen and provoke self reflection through smart interventions and observations. As someone naturally a bit resistant to coaching I found it easy to engage with her and my expectations were exceeded. Thank you for your help Pippa

Pippa demonstrated an in-depth understanding of the StrengthsFinder model and brilliantly translated its concepts into practical, actionable steps for my career and personal life. Her methodology did not simply rest upon discussing my top strengths but intricately mapped out how these strengths interact, complement, and sometimes conflict with each other. This nuanced perspective fostered a more holistic understanding of myself, aiding me to leverage my strengths optimally. Pippa's remarkable ability to balance professional acumen with genuine empathy sets her apart. She has a keen sense of asking the right questions at the right time, pushing me to delve deeper into my thoughts, actions, and motivations. Pippa skillfully navigated conversations, creating a safe, welcoming space for growth and self-reflection. My communication skills were one of the most significant improvements I noticed under Pippa's guidance. Through her coaching, I learned to harness my strengths to communicate more effectively, a transformation that has positively impacted my personal relationships, team dynamics, and leadership abilities. Pippa's unique approach to fostering assertive, empathetic communication is indeed a testament to her expertise.

Pippa provided coaching , which proved incredibly practical. Those who have received the training have blossomed under her tutelage. Her approach is very genuine, easy to apply and extremely effective. She has a unique way of opening minds to different skills, tools and techniques and encouraging individuals to improve and change. She has been so effective, that we as an organisation have invited her back to run a programme of coaching and feedback for the management team. We're all looking forward to working with her on this.

It is an absolute joy to be working with Pippa. I recently transitioned into a senior role and having leadership coaching sessions with Pippa have helped me immeasurably. Pippa is working with the senior management team to help us drive the business in the same direction and is also working with the wider practice through 1:1 sessions and team coaching to help us move forward as a cohesive team that works within our strengths. We also use Pippa as our HR consultant, and I cannot sing her praises highly enough. Our procedures have had an overhaul and we feel reassured and that we are providing a positive and supportive working environment for our staff.

Having Pippa as a Management and Leadership Coach over the last few months has proved to be the most useful training of my career. Pippa has provided me with both practical and psychological tools which have been easy to apply and extremely effective. Pippa has a unique way of helping you to open your mind to what you are good at, where you can improve and how to change. I now feel better equipped for the next stage of my working life transitioning from management to leadership.
Nadiya Gregory
Client Development Manager, advo group
There have been a number of occasions that because of my recent leadership coaching sessions with Pippa, I have stopped and given an action a lot more thought and have subsequently acted differently and more positively. My coaching has really made me understand more about my strengths and weaknesses and to also be much more aware of any blind spots that my strengths may bring I feel so much more confident now in my position and feel like I am already seeing the positive results that are most definitely due to the new skills that I have learnt. Thank you Pippa.

Pippa presented at our recent HR Development Programme, on employee engagement, covering areas such as coaching and identifying people's strengths. Pippa's delivery was inclusive, energetic and insightful. I would recommend her similar events and look forward to working with her again in the future.
