EMPOWERING YOU & YOUR TEAM TO…
2-day Team Away Day
“Jacqui delivered a 2-day team away day event for the IT Leadership team in February 2023. Jacqui understood what we wanted from the session and was able to tailor the running order to that. She was bubbly and outgoing, personable, confident, deliberate, relevant and kept us on track. She was also very good at challenging us and pulling out the key points that we made during the sessions into a succinct action plan. She facilitated well, got the group dynamic and added useful observations and challenging questions during our discussions. It was also nice to see Jacqui spending the down time with us as it really made her feel part of our team.”
Corporate Workshops – Global Women in Leadership Summit“Jacqui delivered the ‘Be Bold, Be You’ workshops as part of our Global Women in Leadership Summit. These were interactive workshops delivered separately in two different time zones to over 100 people each time which helped participants to understand their values, their strengths and what they enjoyed at work, looking at where they are in their career and where they want to be and tracked mindset obstacles that might be getting in the way of progress.
Jacqui was great to work with and organised in her approach, tailoring the workshop to our needs and responding to feedback along the way. Jacqui was high energy and engaging and the workshop was very well received, and we had a really high level of interaction throughout.”
1-1 Coaching and Workshop on Coaching Conversations“I have been receiving some personal development and leadership coaching from Jacqui for a couple of months now. I found the sessions are remarkably impactful and provide me with a linear and achievable action plan for future development. Because of this, I brought Jacqui in to provide a workshop to my organisation on creating coaching conversations and coaching coaches within organisations. The team enjoy the session immensely and several expressed an interest in going on to learn more about how they can enhance their own coaching skills. Highly recommend.”
1-1 Coaching
“I started 1-1 Career Coaching with Jacqui as I was looking to move into a Senior Management role within Finance as soon as possible. We started with DISC personality profiling which really helped me to understand my strengths and what I would bring to the Senior management table. We then developed my CV to really reflect who I am.
Jacqui put me through a challenging mock interview and helped to reflect back on my answers to see how they could be improved, to really demonstrate ‘how’ I get things done and my unique skills. Her support through the interview process helped me to land my first Senior position at a salary level that makes a real difference to my life! And now that I’ve moved into the role, I’ve been able to get laser-focused on my priorities and what success means for me and the team each week. I come out of our fortnightly coaching sessions with a renewed sense of positivity and a belief that I’m in control with a plan.”
Career Coaching Programme“Jacqui was inclusive and enthusiastic, ensuring everyone had the chance to speak. She asked challenging questions and guided well, providing enough information and then the opportunity to reflect and connect with others on the calls. The structure of the sessions was well explained and they were interactive, thought-provoking and fun. I’m now more clear of how I connect myself with the direction I want to go in.”
Financial Coaching Workshops delivered to 100+ apprentices“Jacqui ran a series of 3 workshops in December 2021. Would love to see more of these types of events, around budgeting, investing and financial literacy. The session definitely met the brief, and the additional resources were extremely useful. Precise in delivery, very insightful and helpful. Easily understood. Amazing presentation with plenty of useful resources to take home. Well presented with a plan of action. It was fantastically run and informative, really helpful, well-paced and informative.”
