Jo is fantastic! Coaching runs through her veins; she cares passionately about her clients and bringing out the best in them so they can aspire to be the best. To that end she takes a holistic approach and agrees key objectives against which progress can be measured. Being coached by Jo is like setting out in a journey – the road to success – in an old, small, tired car. By the time the finishing line is crossed you are driving a brand new top of the range model. This is achieved by appropriate tough challenge and joint hard work and commitment. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I can highly recommend Jo as a coach during change or personal development phases.”
“Jo was my executive coach for a year as part of my company’s intensive leadership training programme. She has been the absolute highlight of my training and I would highly recommend her.

She is BRILLIANT at what she does.”

Jo has a tremendous accuracy in her coaching; she coaches with personality and a warm heart and she safely guides you in the process to become not only the best, the most brilliant you!

“Jo is an outstanding coach, mentor and leadership consultant. She draws on her deep experience as a senior leader in a distinguished career and she brings clarity of purpose and natural empathy for people facing difficult, complex and wicked issues in public services. In the round, Jo’s qualities and experience make her a natural coach: unafraid to challenge and unstinting in support.”
“Working with Jo has been a revelation. Her approach is both effortless and complex at the same time as she works with you on many levels – giving you the means & space to unlock what is already there within you. An exhilarating and rewarding experience that I would recommend to any senior leader who is considering working with a coach to explore new opportunities for enhancing their skill base and developing their careers.”
