The Co-operative Group
“I used Ann’s services when I made the transition from corporate lawyer to legal recruiter – this meant having to learn new skills within a very short space of time and having to employ those skills from Day 1 on the job.
Ann’s coaching techniques taught me how to develop the skills and confidence I needed for my new role. Ann is a warm person who is easy to talk with - I felt comfortable with her and, as a result, was able to be open with her as to the issues I thought needed to be addressed. Even after just one session with Ann, I felt more confident in my approach so much so that I began to enjoy developing my new skills rather than worrying about whether I would succeed in my new role, which I believe would ultimately have held me back from being successful.”
