Testimonials

Abbey Dyer-Amonette - Operations Director at Cigna and Entrepreneur

John is such a great soul. Working with him is genuine and heart felt. He was able to use the Clean Language approach to uncover a block that I didn’t recognise was so prominent. We identified it, created a plan to plough through it and I implemented the plan. I feel empowered after working with John. I would highly recommend John to help provide insight and motivate you to action.


Gunjani Patel Oza - CEO of G Patel Counselling

My session with John was phenomenal and I would definitely recommend being supported by him.

I thought I was clear about how my values related to having and growing a team but I was wrong! He is so easy to speak to, so brilliant and he really helped me deep dive into what my values were that I walked out with a crystal clear vision of who I was as a leader at the most unconscious levels, clear on who I was going to hire and what was important to me from my team and also how to lead them in a way that was cohesive to the entire brand. Words can’t express the clarity I have now and the resistance I was able to overcome through our work together in just one session. My team appreciates me now and I appreciate them and we are growing so much faster and together than we would have without John’s help.


Peri McIntosh - Holistic Meals Strategist at Border Park Kitchen

Prior to my session with John, I’d never heard of an approach he uses called ‘Clean Language Coaching’. Although I consider myself someone who loves and is intrigued by words, I was a little unsure – nervous even - about what this session would involve and how it would help me as a leader.

It turns out I had nothing to fear. John immediately put me at ease with his genuine warmth and engaging manner.

He guided me gently through our session, as I shared the vision that formed in my mind – articulating with surprising clarity – and opened up a whole new realm of consciousness I’d not experienced before. I realised for the first time how I’d been holding parts of myself back: that I wasn’t staying true to my values, which led to a sense of frustration and discontentment.

John’s facilitating skills, his values-led approach, and his ability to deeply listen and bring a fresh perspective is extraordinary. Grab your opportunity to work with John today – it will transform how you approach life and business.


Marta Szymańska - Outreach Manager, The Ahoy Sailing Charity

John is friendly and trusting and creates an understanding environment. Before I started working with John, I felt we had no clear direction in the way the leadership team was working together to achieve a goal. Now we have a clear vision of where we are going and how we work together to achieve our goals. I recommend John to others considering working with him as you can learn a lot from working with him.


Dan O’Sullivan - Charity Fundraiser

John has a very encompassing manner of bringing out the best in you. He is understanding, empathetic and constructive in his approach in helping you bring out the better you.

I had known John for a while now through my work, but I had never had the opportunity to work closely with him. Before embarking on the sessions with John, there was a natural feeling of apprehension and uncertainty as to what I’d gain from the sessions.

This apprehension was soon forgotten. The techniques John used to engage and allow you to lead the session through your own thoughts was, magical! Never did I think I would be so open and honest so soon, but I felt compelled to give answers to problems I didn’t realise I had the answers to until John unpicked them.

I have taken much of the learnings from the sessions and implemented them into my daily routine, and I feel a lot more in control of my life since doing so.

Recommending John and his services to friends and family is a resounding ‘yes!’ He has a way of managing a room with his calming and caring voice which allows you to unpick your internal thoughts and helps find answers to problems you thought were unresolvable. A very personal and professional service.

Whilst Chair of The AHOY Charity we invited John to lead the development of a ‘values culture’ amongst our staff, freelancers, volunteers and beneficiaries. Prior to Johns workshop and subsequent follow up the stakeholders in the charity often discussed what was important to them however the organisation lacked a consensus about what defined and made the AHOY's purpose so unique and endearing.


John led the development of what turned out to be 12 agreed values and the embedding of processes and conversations around the same ensuring they lived on a ‘day to day’ basis and were inculcated through all those associated with the Charity. It is always a joy to visit the Centre and witness/feel the legacy John left, ensuring the values culture lives through the daily conversations, behaviours and activities.


John has a real empathy with people and an awareness to ensure all personalities are listened to and nurtured to participate. It was a joy to witness his approach first hand, one that allows people of all abilities, behaviours and personalities to feel valued and share their contributions without fear of exclusion or marginalisation.


Having worked in major corporations as an executive I can honestly state that it is rare to find someone of Johns abilities, behaviours, values and insightful approach in the coaching/consultancy world. Having spent hundreds of thousands of pounds in employing consultancies to develop organisational behaviours and value statements/processes I wish I had met John earlier!
