What my clients say and why people choose to work with me:
 

Happy Clients

 

Tom is an excellent coach, who provided me with very balanced advice through a critical stage of my career. He is a great listener, and his style was to coax me to arrive at the answers myself, rather than simply imparting his own experience.

-Partner, Big 4

 

Tom's coaching supported me to constructively challenge assumptions and perspectives I held (some of which were almost unconsciously held). He nudged me outside of my comfort zone by working with me to devise practical approaches to resolving particular issues. His style of coaching is pragmatic, insightful and individually focused.

Tom is an excellent listener. He provides the time and space for you to explore the big picture questions -  what exactly do I want from my career and are there things I should be doing differently to be happy and successful in my work? He probes and challenges in a supportive way that allows you to bring clarity to your career ambitions and gives you a better understanding of what makes you tick.
