“I sought Geoff’s help after becoming a little lost about the purpose and direction I was heading in and being a CEO there are few reference points outside the business to measure real success and development.
In summary, coaching with Geoff has transformed my work performance; my shareholder observed a huge uptick in performance and actually sought Geoff out to mediate and Chair a senior directors meeting in another of his businesses. It has also transformed the way I view myself and my whole life.
Geoff is not a soft coach and tasks are set and results expected but only after a thorough dissection of what it was that I needed or wanted to achieve. Sometimes these were really narrow eg drawing up a business plan, and sometimes broad like networking and relationships with other board members. Geoff took the time and effort to understand the other characters involved and spent time with both my shareholder and my family.
All the time I felt Geoff was not using a playbook, but each session focussed particularly on my needs. Over time Geoff even sought outside expertise and knowledge as new themes emerged.
Overall, I would unreservedly recommend Geoff to anyone and would be happy to be contacted to give some colour to my comments."
“Geoffrey is a fantastic strategist, coach, consultant and get-it-done kind of executive. He’s superb”
