Tilly asked a lot of exploratory questions which allowed me to observe and unpick values, beliefs and conflict that shape who I am as a leader. She is also very clear and direct with her feedback and guidance which I appreciate. I felt very comfortable to open up and discuss my challenges and point of view with Tilly without feeling like I was being judged. I also appreciated that Tilly treated me as a human, and not as a senior director at an agency, which helps me dig deeper to the professional / personal factors that make me who I am at work.

​

This is the second coaching programme I’ve been on with Tilly. I’ve once again really enjoyed the coaching sessions. Tilly strikes the right balance of providing a framework for each coaching session whilst also flexing these where necessary to cater to any recent developments or areas I’d like to particularly focus on. Tilly’s pushed me/my development over the past couple of months; I’ve learnt a lot about my management style which I will take with me throughout my career.

 

I worked with Tilly for a few months and found her way of coaching to be very engaging and impactful. From the outset, we discussed my short-term and medium-term goals and formed a plan to work through these. Working through these goals, I was able to set new areas of focus with Tilly; she was always happy to help and provide the relevant coaching and clarity for different situations. Tilly’s expertise in active listening and asking the right questions to provide suggestions/answers that were relevant, and often backed-up by insightful theory felt transformative for me. I particularly appreciated the detailed session notes and mini targets set before the next session which helped me look back on the material covered and keep momentum in my development. I would happily recommend Tilly to anyone seeking exceptional coaching for personal development or career advancement. ​

​

Tilly was an absolute pleasure to work with and she has transformed the way I think about myself and what I am capable of doing in the future.

​

​Tilly was able to help me identify my strengths and allow me to think how I could best utilise them to work on the issues I was facing at work. Not only did this allow me to build my own confidence, it also opened my eyes to the strengths of other members of my team which in turn increased my levels of respect for them and enhanced the way I interact with the team overall. Sessions with Tilly gave me the opportunity to approach my problems at work in a new and positive way and greatly helped with resolving them.

​

​My sessions with Tilly offered a dedicated space to stop and focus on my career, what I had achieved so far and really consider my options moving forward. It was helpful to systematically work through each step in a rational way and have a friendly ear to sound board against. Tilly is natural, warm and very encouraging. Coaching is a subtle but powerful way to move forward towards your goals and realising your potential. 

​

I’d firstly like to say thank you for your time and support over the past few months: You have, by your support and guidance, helped me with clear thinking about an issue, taking the emotion out of the mix, and helped align my effort with the task at hand. I have become more confident with my decision making and now try and take time before responding to requests or assignments, so I can support others to do the same. I am working on a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset and this has given me confidence to try something rather than to take a back seat due to my overarching feeling of “imposter syndrome”. Thank you for your patience, support and good humour, and challenging me so nicely to become the best person I am able to be – both professionally and personally.

 

This was the first time I’ve had coaching and I thought the course was excellent. It was well structured, and because I had goals and actions following each session, I was able to keep myself accountable which really helped drive my development and make it a focus. I’ve recommended the course to multiple people since completing it, and I also extended my learning (such as active listening, goal setting, delegation, growth mindset) to other members of my team and to my management group. I also think this was a perfect time to do the course. I’m now completed my first year of management, and I would recommend this course to any new manager. Tilly created a safe space for me to talk openly, which also really helped me get the most value out of the sessions. Thank you, Tilly, excellent course, and one that I’ll keep with me!

 

The coaching has been very useful. As a new manager, I found it helpful to talk through some of the ways I would approach various situations. Sessions were well structured and efficient with clear goals at the start and finish. I would recommend this training to anyone on the start of their journey of aspiring to be a future leader.

 

In almost every session there was a point or two where you pointed out things I have been doing, positive or negative, and you made me think about why I am doing it or why I believe in it, these were eye opening moments for me. I always find your feedback and discussion very insightful, always providing good examples to similar situations from your experience. You were always patient with me trying to speak my mind and articulate how I feel. I found the notes sent after each session very useful, well-structured and cover all the discussion points. Sometimes it was not possible to achieve the goals we set after a session as the opportunity doesn’t always present itself in the 2 weeks gaps between the sessions, but these are now long terms goals for me to achieve once the opportunity came.​

 

I think the course is really well structured in the fact that we meet up every couple of weeks, you take notes on all that has been discussed and then we set a goal to work on for the next two weeks. Having all the notes recorded and then sent at the end of every session and by the end of the programme having it all packaged up is really useful insight for one's development. You do a great job being a coach and asking questions rather than the mentoring aspect of giving advice. It allows the person you are working with to realise and express themselves rather than just receiving advice. I think one of the most useful things that I particularly enjoyed is the journey reflections and milestones that got us to where we are today. The technique of looking back at the highlights of our careers and identifying what steps we took to get here, allows for a really great reflection and realisation.

 

Thank you so much for your coaching sessions. They really have made a difference, helping me to think differently and approach certain working situations in a much more considered way. The coaching has built my confidence and helped me to better understand myself, and how I can be myself whilst also approaching management in a professional way that also works for me.

​

Tilly has provided a valuable support for our Graduates as they complete our development scheme and transition to their first role within the business. Engagement and feedback from the graduates has been exceptionally high and we know that Tilly’s guided coaching style has allowed the Graduates to make a strong start in their careers. Tilly really gets what our Graduates want to talk about and makes sure she makes an impact in the time she has with them.  

​

Tilly is a skilled professional who combines strong subject knowledge with a high level of emotional intelligence to deliver an effective, bespoke development plan to facilitate personal growth. She uses powerful, open questions to create an environment where a coachee can truly reflect and build self-understanding. This self-understanding enables the coachee to craft goals, related to your work/personal life, which Tilly supports by teaching various psychological techniques. Tilly can succinctly explain these techniques, along with real examples and references to literature, so that coachees can learn and practice between sessions. Overall, my personal experience with Tilly has been very positive; I have learned a lot from her and I would strongly recommend her to any professionals who are seeking personal development.

​

My coaching experience was excellent, Tilly’s approach challenged my thinking and provoked lots of development actions that I was able to work on during my sessions and to continue working on now that my sessions have come to an end. The sessions left me with clarity and more confidence and also with a clear direction in which I would like my development to go in. Tilly was friendly and relatable and creates a safe space which meant I was able to be honest about my thoughts and feelings on the topics we covered which in turn created great outcomes and goals for me to build on. I would recommend this coaching programme to anyone as part of their ongoing development.

​

I really benefited from my coaching sessions with Tilly. We covered a wide range of topics from stress to communication to personal brand which have increased my own awareness of these areas. I feel more confident in asking myself difficult questions and delving into the reasons why I feel a certain way, and plan on continuing to apply many of the themes we’ve discussed in the months and years ahead. Thanks again Tilly!

​

I thoroughly enjoyed the coaching session with Tilly, she took the time to understand what my needs were and how we could target them throughout the sessions. This was my first time experiencing professional coaching and wasn’t sure what to expect before starting, however, Tilly always made sure I felt very comfortable which made opening up and targeting my specific queries/concerns very easy which made the coaching very valuable. I think the sessions and the order of the sessions were very logical and the content was very interesting and we covered lot in the sessions. I have definitely taken a lot away from these sessions which I will continue to use throughout my career.

​

Working with Tilly was an extremely beneficial process for me in terms of how I navigate my job, career, and personal life. I particularly found value in how she enabled me to develop a 1-10 step approach for my professional development, which is something I have struggled to tackle in the past. With her guidance I have also found and am still developing effective methods for understanding stress, creating a personal brand, expanding my comfort zone and more. The coaching sessions with Tilly were invaluable as her approach enabled a safe space for open discussion and honesty. I feel that these sessions have left a lasting impact on my personal growth and empowerment in my career. I am very grateful for the positive changes I have taken on board through her guidance and continue to develop, Thank you Tilly!

​

I really enjoyed this programme of coaching. I have been on self-awareness and personal development programmes before but the theories and techniques have not always stuck for the long run. I feel I am now equipped with a multitude of resources, ideas and steps to take to continue putting what I’ve learnt into practice and I believe they work really well. Over the past few months I have noticed a change in myself, recognising negative self-talk more and being able to distinguish what matters and what is just holding me back as well as improving confidence step by step. There were a number of really important conversations I had with Tilly that have stuck with me and given me a new perspective on work and life. I thought I would be nervous or embarrassed to talk about particular subjects but Tilly made a really safe space and was always respectful. I would definitely recommend this to others.

​

Tilly is a really great coach, very knowledgeable and understanding. The programme allows you to set your own goals and work out strategies to achieve them with a focus on building on the work done in previous sessions. I would recommend a coaching course with Tilly to anyone looking to further develop within their career.

​

The coaching programme provided a valuable opportunity to explore my personal development and mindset that I really appreciated. This is something I have struggled to do in the past but the coaching provided an excellent platform to explore the topics of each session. Tilly was great at finding the balance between giving me time to reach my own conclusions and gently pushing me at the times where we reached the more challenging areas of my mindset growth. Tilly helped create a positive atmosphere for the sessions which made me feel comfortable to open up and form honest, personal development points to take away from the coaching programme.​​​​​
