“Jonathan’s coaching was invaluable in helping me to navigate a really tricky career crossroads with success. His patient, professional and compassionate approached allowed me to reassess my career, to refocus on the future and rebuild my self-confidence. I was then able to take important decisions about my future with the right energy and positivity, to prepare intelligently for interviews and ultimately to secure a fantastic new job. I’m certain this would have been much more difficult, taken much longer and might not even have happened without Jonathan’s coaching.”

“Jonathan is a wonderfully talented natural coach. He provided me with practical tools and guidance to find value and meaning in my current work, and identify positives that are often hard to pin down. He encouraged me to face up to tough questions and challenges, and gain confidence in following my strengths and passions, many of which fall outside of the commonly accepted traits of a “9 to 5” finance professional. I found him to be a skilled and intuitive listener, who distilled my rambling thoughts into clear, actionable goals. Working with Jonathan has provided me with a wealth of confidence, focus and increased knowledge on how to situate myself in a career/life I truly aspire to.”

“I’ve had the privilege of working with Jonathan for several months. Jonathan has played two critical roles for me - the first as a supporter as I’ve faced multiple challenges; the second as a challenger of my growth. His style encourages me to take the space to think and through sessions with him I have had some of my most transformational ideas. On top of this, he makes me feel that the issues I’m facing are valid and worth taking time to solve. Strongly recommended.”

“Jonathan has led me through a programme of stretching, challenging, and very effective coaching sessions. In a very gentle but clear way, he’s challenged me to re-think my own personal goals – which in turn have given me a much stronger sense of direction. He has also enabled me to find workable practical solutions to a series of staffing, performance and working relationship challenges. In sum these have been pivotal in establishing myself – and a brand-new team - in the first six months of my job. My confidence, clarity and leadership performance have all benefited.”

“Jonathan has been coaching me for several months now, and my experience throughout has been overwhelmingly positive. When I started the coaching sessions, I was unsure of what to expect, but Jonathan quickly set my mind at ease with his calm, reassuring manner; very much occupying the role of a ‘critical friend’ rather than a more formal relationship. As a result, I felt relaxed and Jonathan was able to guide me to reflect quite deeply and develop my self-awareness. I like the way Jonathan challenges me throughout the sessions, always in a friendly way, but the high level of challenge forces me to confront and dispel some of my pre-conceptions and this has had a real impact on improving my work-life balance. Jonathan has guided me to develop a set of skills to reflect critically and carefully on my commitments throughout a period of career change and professional development. I would absolutely endorse his coaching.”

“I was incredibly apprehensive prior to getting a coach due to the stigmas I had inadvertently associated with doing so. I was struggling to keep all the plates spinning in my life and needed to re-prioritise work and family life and Jonathan was highly recommended by my peers. Over the past six months Jonathan has enabled me to remain calmly productive when at my capacity both at work and home but more importantly he has taught me simple methods which have stopped me overburdening myself and allowing me to gain more family time.”

“Jonathan was my coach over a period of 6 months. His style of coaching was relaxed, inquisitive yet friendly which really helped me to open up and explore new approaches to improve my confidence when meeting new people both at work and socially. He also helped me with putting things into perspective which has helped to reduce feelings of stress. These coaching sessions were a really worthwhile investment of my time and I wouldn’t hesitate to have further coaching sessions with Jonathan in the future.”

“Jonathan coached me over several months on a number of various issues, personal, career development and self-motivation. Jonathan’s style was open, attentive and challenging. I found that his challenges were sometimes quite hard when he put questions to me in a friendly but stretching way. He shared a number of useful techniques to me that were easy to try in my daily activities. As a result, things are now going well for me: I launched a special Covid-19 outreach in my new Rotary role and have streamlined how I manage my team at TLS. I have learnt how to manage my time properly and have a better balance between social activities, personal and career. I also feel a lot more positive about myself. Jonathan is a super coach and has made a real impact on my life.”

“Jonathan was my coach for a series of focused coaching sessions over a short period of 2 months. During the coaching Jonathan helped to restore my confidence, transformed my interview skills and shared a number of useful psychologically-based techniques with me. As a result, when interviewing for a key job on promotion I felt both confident and relaxed - and was successful. I am absolutely clear that Jonathan’s coaching made a significant and positive difference to my success.”

“Jonathan’s style as a coach is subtle, flexible and adaptable to the person he is coaching. He carefully gets to know that person and helps them evaluate their needs. As the sessions progressed, Jonathan transformed what I was learning about myself into an action plan which he ingrained by invitation in my mind, slowly but surely. That is the mark of any good art!”
