Testimonials

Helena has been a great asset supporting the Foundation’s leadership development objectives with a programme ranging from helping us to roll out Insights alongside Executive Team coaching and wider staff engagement support. Helena brings great experience together with a really useful leadership toolbox to help us unlock those sticky leadership problems.

 Graham Fisher, CEO, Letchworth Garden City Heritage Foundation

Helena supported us through a senior internal recruitment and assessment process with exceptional skill and judgement. Her structured approach, perceptive questioning, and ability to see beyond performance on the day gave us invaluable clarity. Just as importantly, her work helped ensure that candidates received thoughtful, constructive outcomes – no matter if successful or developmental. I would not hesitate to recommend her and will most definitely ask Helena to work on further assignments with us in the future.

 Peter Brook, Director of Retail, North London Hospice

Helena takes the time to deeply engage with the culture and dynamics of the organisation, ensuring that every initiative is not only relevant but also tailored to our specific goals. Her approach is thoughtful, strategic, and always rooted in understanding the people she works with, which has made all the difference in our partnership. We have enlisted her support for a range of initiatives, including our Leadership Development Programme, 360-Degree Feedback processes, People Management training, and our evolving EDI strategy and interventions. We are confident that her involvement will continue to drive positive, lasting impact. I cannot recommend Helena highly enough. She is a consummate professional who brings expertise, warmth, and a tailored approach to everything she does.

 Nadia Zerroud, Director of People and Culture, Shooting Star Children’s Hospices

Helena supported us with the design and delivery of the final phase of our culture change programme. She quickly understood what was needed and made recommendations to improve impact. Her enthusiasm and ability to connect with people at all levels resulted in positive and engaging workshops that were rated significantly higher by our employees than all previous parts of the programme. Helena was an absolute joy to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her!

 Gemma Benbow, People & Organisation Director, KIA UK

Helena came in to support me in strengthening our culture work, specifically around the development of our Heads and Executive Leadership team. She was thoughtful, highly expert, and able to facilitate robust yet emotionally intelligent discussions. Helena was extremely well received and helped us go beyond the surface of our leadership styles to build mutual accountability. She’s been such an asset to us.

 Marcia Bluck, Director of People, Culture and Governance, Turn2us

Helena has a fantastic ability to build a genuine and meaningful rapport with a diverse audience instantly. She captures attention and brings people on the story of her training really well and is able to engage an audience in a way that is both light touch and deeply connected. She is a fantastic trainer and our employees look forward to her sessions, always having something to take away.

 Rachel Hanson, HR Business Partner at Edgewell

Helena’s transformative guidance has helped us to develop more unity within our Development Leadership Team, fostering a mentality that is focused and energised. Her excellent work has not only brought us closer together but also elevated our collective spirit enabling us to navigate challenges with even more strength and collaboration.
