What clients say
"I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Nicki. She is supportive, with skilled, thought-provoking questioning enabling me to gain clarity in my own mind about my objectives and development. It's very easy to talk to Nicki and she always ends the session with clear actions that I can go away and implement enabling me to take productive steps in my career. Nicki's coaching has been invaluable."
"Nicki’s a great listener, she was brilliant at listening to my experiences and challenges, analysing these and helping me to understand solutions to move forward. She takes the emotion out of my concerns and allows me to be factual, ensuring I provide the evidence and to remain focused. Nicki was a sounding board, externally, which allowed me to speak freely. This helped as her focus was on me and my development, without knowing other internal factors."
"Nicki is the career mentor everyone needs. I have worked with Nicki for over a year and her guidance and support has been invaluable for my career development. Her professionalism and friendly mentoring style have helped me so much to build my confidence and pursue new professional challenges. Nicki is an amazing mentor and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to take their career to a new level."
"I have gained a lot more confidence from the mentoring sessions and a better awareness of what opportunities lie within or outside of my current organisation. This has been echoed from the Director of Customer Sales, who has commented on the positive change that he has seen from me since I began working with Nicki."
"Nicki is a fantastic listener and has helped me to change my mind set, which in turn has allowed my confidence to grow. An example of this is where I have felt uncomfortable in the past when having discussions relating to performance. Nicki enabled me to change my mind set by talking through the scenario and highlighting the positive outcomes from the discussion. I now feel much more confident to tackle these conversations, which will benefit me in my current and future roles. Nicki is a very strong communicator and provides very clear and helpful suggestions. Many of the actions that I have taken since starting the sessions are things that I had never considered doing before, however Nicki has enabled me to be much more goal-orientated in a specific and measurable way."
"From the first call, I found Nicki easy to talk to. I have never been mentored before so wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but throughout our conversation we found areas in which I could do with advice and support. This included my confidence, which had been badly knocked in a previous role. Nicki helped me to overcome this by transforming the way I looked at the situation, turning away from thinking “what did I do wrong”. This has since allowed me to move past what happened before and gain confidence for the future."
“Nicki came across as a very personable individual with a genuine interest in helping me achieve my goals, I felt at ease letting my guard down to discuss my weaknesses. Nicki was good at helping me set specific and measurable objectives and at holding me to account at the start of each session to ensure that I had made progress in between our sessions against our agreed actions.”
“Nicki provided challenge and a different perspective without trying to impose her own experiences and viewpoint on me. She was focused, organised, insightful, and practical.”
"I’ve really enjoyed being mentored by Nicki and couldn’t recommend her enough. I am sure she will make a difference to many Marketers, as she has to me. Thank you Nicki!"
“I worked with Nicki as I had recently moved into a new role. Her advice and guidance was invaluable. Nicki has made the transition into the role easier and I would definitely recommend working with her to others”
