"I choose Rich as my coach because I always get a result! I also experience a greater level of personal effectiveness to deliver more in my business, creating new standards in awareness and understanding, with a rare focus on me that ripples out into all areas of my life. Thank you for being a Fabulous Coach Rich!"
Michelle Clarke, Head of Global Teams, XL Results Foundation

"I knew I wanted to improve some elements of my life, but wasn't sure exactly what and how. Richard approached me with no prejudices, just a full commitment to be fair and challenging; which became an exceptionally enlightening experience. He gave me the opportunity and space to talk through everything on my mind and I mean everything - I don't think I've ever done that before.

I've discovered more about myself than I went looking for and I'm the better for it. I achieved far more than I set out to. In fact, I am not sure I would have believed and would have got to where I am now if that is what Richard had told me at the beginning!

The surprise wasn't what I found, but actually how little there really was; a lot was interrelated so in fact it was the same few issues in different guises - he helped me realise that actually many issues that you subconsciously mull over can become just too big in your mind - when in actual fact they are not that big after all. There are no more "hairy monster issues" in the corner - I know recognize the challenges in life that I can learn from and enjoy conquering.

Richard guiding me through my coaching ‘journey’ has helped me realise that when you understand more about how you act or react to certain situations and why, life just makes more sense. It's simple really - if you spend less time worrying or second guessing, and more focused on what you do want, you spend more time enjoying life - it sounds too easy, but it's true. I'm a different and better person for it. I've changed for the better. Richard has helped me realise life doesn't need to be complicated, it's easier if you are happy, and the more you know yourself the more you can offer others!"
Ian Hancocks, Publisher, B2B Magazines

"Rich has been my coach for approximately 18 months, during which time I have discovered and acknowledged my heart's calling. Rich gently guided me to listen to my dreams, envisage them and believe them to be possible. He has been a coach, a friend, an advisor and a sounding board; and I am grateful for the journey that has led me to the life I truly dreamed of. His passion, integrity, love and a deep respect for the process of unfoldment that coaching facilitates makes him an excellent person to work with. "
Joolz Lewis, The Corporate Hippy

"Rich is a top executive coach. He is passionate about enabling his clients to find their own answers and in so doing learn and improve their capability and capacity. I am very impressed by the way he has taken me through a process to enable me to be more effective, without 'telling' me anything.

Rich is totally in his flow when learning about others dreams and aspirations, understanding their motivations and helping them set goals. He connects people effortlessly and does so with an openness, warmth and sincerity that is uncommonly unique to him being truly himself."
Dave Harker, Balance & Retail Insight

"Sitting down with Richard gives me insight to a completely different world. He is grounded and calm and when we talk, I reflect on my ideas and, through his presence, they come out with greater clarity, greater strength and greater form."
Thao Dang, Training Delivery & Event Co-ordinator, Triumphant Events

"Richard is insightful and grounded. He is the perfect person to talk to if you have some big ideas and goals but not sure of the process to get them into action. Richard creates the space, by asking very unique questions, for you to explore your thinking and to make excellent choices. He is also a kind, compassionate person who is intent on making a big difference on this planet... and already is."
Daniel Priestley, Triumphant Events

"That's worth 15 years of my life! You are incredible! You guide me to see the best that is already in me. Restoration of the old self, of my power to exhale anger and inhale generosity of spirit allowing space for kindness and true love for people, learning each and every day how to respect other people’s truths – no matter how painful it may be because we know deep in our own heart that the truth shall set us all free! That has been spot on from the start."
Danny Saffer, Breakthrough Client

"I can honestly say that working with Richard has caused me to "get it". The effects of my breakthrough session have been dramatic and I feel that a huge shift has occurred in my general outlook. I now understand that I can choose to be happy or not and that it is all entirely within my power and not some external force which is what I had previously understood. As I said at the time I couldn't believe that I hadn't been able to see it before but until the cloud was lifted I can see why. It's life changing yet so simple and I thoroughly recommend it for everyone."
Tammy Kenyon, Event Manager and Breakthrough Client

“When we invited Rich to come and share with us his knowledge of building and nurturing effective teams based on personality profile and preferred behavioural styles in the workplace, we got more than we expected. His intuition and insights into personal performance were first class and the information gained will absolutely be integrated into our team building and recruitment moving forward. Rich’s ‘coaching’ style is open, calm and inclusive, facilitating discussions between team members and additionally enabling them to deduct their own powerful conclusions and learn from all aspects of the group set-up. Progressive Property is a first-moving, successful property investment business that is growing quickly both internally and in reputation – time spent with Rich can only enhance that growth through the individuals that make up the team.”
Rob Moore, Director & Co-Founder, Progressive Property

“I always knew, or thought I knew, what I was best at and to a large extent I did. After our executive team session with Rich, which started by looking at the individual rather than the business, it is so much more to clear to me now when I operate at my most effective (and when I don’t!) and how to achieve that consistently for both myself and those I work with. Sharing that awareness with others is also extraordinarily powerful when it comes to acknowledging strengths and weaknesses for the benefit of the team.”
Mark Homer, Director & Co-Founder, Progressive Property

"Richard has great substance, authenticity and integrity. He also has a heart full of care which he extends in all his endeavours and interactions. Richard has an innate ability to bring out the best in people, to help them to shine, stretch, reach, grow and become more of who they are. Conversations with Richard are always elevating and expansive and leave me in a bigger and brighter space. His vision and passion is infectious and inspiring. He is also anchoring and enhances focus and clarity. I highly recommend Richard and the many many gifts he offers through his work and projects."
Aine Belton

"Richard is a lovely guy and a great coach. I have been coached by a number of people in the past and have always benefited, but there was something special happened in my session with Richard. Following his session I had a truly changed self belief and firmer vision of where I was going. The next day someone remarked that I had a whole new energy about me. I think what Richard enabled was to facilitate me to unblock my own energy and focus it in one direction instead of me shooting it off in multiple directions. I would highly recommend Richard as a coach."
Richard James, 'The Sales Coach'

"Richard's calm manner and inquisitive interest in his clients meant that I was able to quickly relax and be as frank with him as needed. By discussion of my experiences and people's reactions to me, both within Puratos and at previous engagements, we were able to work through my initial limiting beliefs. Acting as a neutral guide, Richard and myself were able to set realistic goals for review at each session and these were, mostly, achieved.

Throughout the course Richard went out of his way to provide me with support and experienced guidance when I came to him with issues. Sometimes these issues strayed outside the remit of the coaching programme, but Richard was able to take time out to help resolve these issues and disassociate them from more important courses of action.

I would recommend Richard as both a genuine person to do business with and a capable coach who is ideally suited to coaching people in similar situations as mine. I would hope to work with Richard again and would certainly commend him to others."
James Williams, Business Account Manager, Puratos UK Ltd

"Richard’s coaching style is excellent with good, open questions. Richard has a very gentle, easy going, personable manner that makes it easy to talk to him about situations both with business and personally. He is equally good on the phone or face-to-face."
Charlotte Moore, Fortune Magazine

"Richard approached each session in a relaxed but professional manner. This immediately made me feel at ease with the situation. Richard is very patient and a good listener. Richard’s questioning promoted good discussion and made me think about how I act in situations and react to circumstances. Overall I was very impressed with Richard’s ability to understand my feelings and my concerns. I am confident in Richard’s ability to coach others to a high level.

I think Richard’s ability to listen is his great strength. The questioning was testing but appropriate. I was never concerned that Richard was pushing me in the wrong direction."
