Testimonial time...

Sara - Executive TeamÂ
One of the most important & enlightening of the many lessons I learnt from Rory, was to shift focus to building on my strengths. As is common with many women in leadership positions, I had a tendency towards imposter syndrome & Rory helped me to change that mindset. His style is warm, authentic & relaxed. He brings energy, humour and wisdom to every interaction."

Paul – Group Marketing Manager
What I didn’t expect—but will be forever grateful for—was Rory’s whole-person approach. His coaching has helped me to significantly improve my ability to understand and respond to challenges, to lead teams, to work with peers on tough topics and to be more mindful of the choices that I make with my time and energy. Rory’s down-to-earth style is refreshing. His perspective is genuine, with the very real experience of leading a successful business underpinning every insight.”Â
