what people say
“Fruitful, educational and fulfilling conversations where you can discus ideas and clarify ways to address professional and personal challenges. I always learn new things and come away feeling calmer and more uplifted following my sessions with Deborah.”
Monika
Japanese Investment Bank
“As much as Deborah emphasises that my hard work got me to where I am today, I would be lying if I said that she didn't play a pivotal role in finding my dream job. She helped me devise a plan that would ensure the success of me finding the role that was perfect for me and not just any job. She helped shape my approach, my CV and provided invaluable insights during the interview process. This allowed me to approach each meeting with the knowledge and confidence I needed, which resulted in receiving multiple job offers from the best companies in the industry. Today, I work for the third largest reinsurance broker in the world and I still come to Deborah for advice on how to excel in my role. I couldn't be more grateful for her help.”
Federico Albertini
“Deborah has an exceptional ability to identify issues in need of enhancement, clarify how to achieve positive change and unlock potential you didn’t even know you had.”
Nomi Prins
Bestselling Author, Journalist & Financial Expert
“I knew and respected Deborah well from her previous life as a top city head-hunter. Deborah understands the city and business and so has the commercial insight and confidence to be directive and help deliver outcomes. I would have no hesitation to recommend her for people or businesses going through a change process.”
David McCaig
CEO, Many Waters Capital
“I worked with Deborah in 2014 at a time when I had elected to take an extended break from the city and was contemplating my next career step. As an executive coach, I found Deborah to have a very broad and measured approach in working with me. She manages to find a neat balance between never being too pushy yet always being damn forthright in her views. I’d have no hesitation in re-engaging with her when the circumstances are right and have subsequently introduced her to some of my most senior city contacts.”
Jim Irvine
CEO Prytania Group
“Deborah is a fabulous listener taking a pragmatic approach at all times. Action orientated you are left with a clear understanding of the ‘what’ and more important a simple but effective plan of the next steps, the ‘how.’ Cheerful and positive no matter what, she is often just the tonic that is needed!"
