Testimonials
"Pippa has worked with our organisation for just over 2 years and the support and advice Pippa gives us - from coaching to HR advice to strategy support and facilitation - is invaluable. Her wealth of experience, knowledge and diplomacy shows through every time. We have gone through an enormous change and continue to do so and Pippa has kept us level headed and sane throughout! "

"We have been working with Pippa for about three years now. Initially, Pippa was brought in to assist First Choice with our HR and Development needs, but more recently has worked closely with the Board in a more strategic role. Pippa has helped to develop the Senior Management Team and has had a strong influence with our business planning. Naturally, through the training and development programme that we have engaged with Pippa, our Management Team's abilities have increased thus resulting in the Board gaining greater value from her input. I would not hesitate to recommend Pippa in all aspects of Management Consultancy, HR and Development"

"Pippa has totally transformed the way we run the HR side of our company. Prior to Pippa's arrival we were a small company muddling our way through HR problems that arose but now, with Pippa's help, we now run all our HR affairs much more professionally, ensuring that we do everything correct and above board. It is a huge relief knowing that we can have access to Pippa and her knowledge, should we have a problem that we don't know how to deal with. I would thoroughly recommend her."
Sue Mahoney Director ShimmiShake

"Pippa has been a close associate to several members within Forest Garden over the past 5 years, working with Managers, Sales Personnel, Directors and Site teams on a variety of development issues. These have included values and beliefs, teamworking, identifying key objectives and goals and prioritising activities to deliver those goals. Pippa's approach to training and development is very open and flexible and she has an excellent ability to understand situations and dynamics quickly within a business or working relationship. Pippa will make use of all information gathered about a business or a set of dynamics and adapt the development program to individuals needs to ensure these are identified understood by the team and objectives to moving forward are clarified and reached. On a personal note Pippa has played a key role in developing and mentoring myself as i have progressed from a Site Manager into a Group Operations role and currently as an Operations Director within the same company. Pippa has helped me by giving clarity to the direction needed and has offered support even if through just a phone call for advice along the way and I believe Pippa will remain a close friend as i pursue my career. I will undoubtedly call and utilise hers skills on numerous training and development opportunities for my team into the future. - Pips 1 A Highly recommended development tool for any business"
