Testimonials

'I found working with you: Stimulating because you are creative, Fun because you care and have a wicked sense of humor, Challenging because you provide insight and think differently from most, in a fairly linear profession'
Anne Davies

'You always consider the situation holistically, taking a big picture view, creating context for yourself and others. You move comfortably into appropriate levels of detail, are very focussed, sustaining a high level of commitment and energy over long periods of time. You set very high standards for yourself and others, encouraging them to deliver work of good quality. Your solutions and interventions are creative, original, well considered and thought through.'
Hilary Dennis

'Challenging: You seemed happy to seek clarification and justification, forcing the other person to think more deeply about what they were saying. Reframing: You offered alternate ways of looking at issues and interwove your ideas with how the other person perceived things, adding to and enhancing their thinking. Acting: you encouraged the other person to act - rather than simply talk about it - and instilled confidence that it was better to do something and risk the need for later correction than do nothing and so achieve nothing'
