“I have had the pleasure of working with Bina for 18 months when she has helped me develop an L&D strategy for our organisation. Her knowledge and experience has been so valuable, she brings new and innovative ideas and listens patiently to my very limited L&D knowledge! I would recommend Bina for any L&D activity - she is super engaging and really gets it!”

— Kelly Mance, Head of Human Resources, Newmedica

“I have received coaching and personal development training from Bina and I cannot thank her enough. I was initially unconvinced coaching would work and was dubious about the sessions however, she made me so comfortable from the get go. Bina motivated me to find the answers to my own questions and coached me with all the concerns I had as a store manager and in -store trainer by asking me the right questions to empower me to work through the issues I raised. I now know I couldn’t have become the person or employee I am today without her support. I will never underestimate her abilities or a person’s ability to change with the influence of such a passionate, professional and polite person. Truly inspired me to reach for goals and resolve the concerns I have had. I have realised my true potential and moved onwards, in a major part thanks to Bina! Couldn’t recommend her coaching and personal development enough.

Jonathan is a wonderfully talented natural coach. He provided me with practical tools and guidance to find value and meaning in my current work, and identify positives that are often hard to pin down. He encouraged me to face up to tough questions and challenges, and gain confidence in following my strengths and passions, many of which fall outside of the commonly accepted traits of a "9 to 5" finance professional. I found him to be a skilled and intuitive listener, who distilled my rambling thoughts into clear, actionable goals. Working with Jonathan has provided me with a wealth of confidence, focus and increased knowledge on how to situate myself in a career/life I truly aspire to.

'I can't speak highly enough of Bina's ability to both coach and motivate. Having struggled with my own confidence, Bina was invaluable in helping me progress in my career and I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone who wants to be at the absolute top of their game!!'

- Sarla Gopaldas, Store Manager, Specsavers Opticians

“Bina is passionate about L&D, a detailed and thorough project and events manager and a fantastic leader. I've worked with Bina over the last year on a high-profile project for Specsavers and she provided so much expertise, insight and support throughout - I really valued her being part of the project team and she always led the way at the majority of the high-profile events as the Event Lead and did a seamless job! Alongside her role as a divisional training manager, Bina often took on roles within various projects and always managed to dedicate her time to both worlds without letting her work standards slip - a true representation of agile working within a matrix organisation. Her positive, proactive and resilient attitude enables her to overcome challenges and present alternative ideas and concepts in a supportive and insightful way. She's a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend Bina for any L&D, project management or event management role she would desire.”

“I've had the privilege of working with Jonathan for several months. Jonathan has played two critical roles for me - the first as a supporter as I've faced multiple challenges; the second as a challenger of my growth.  His style encourages me to take the space to think and through sessions with him I have had some of my most transformational ideas. On top of this, he makes me feel that the issues I'm facing are valid and worth taking time to solve. Strongly recommended.”

— Andy King, Vice President of Customer Success, Raising IT

Jonathan has led me through a programme of stretching, challenging, and very effective coaching sessions. In a very gentle but clear way, he’s challenged me to re-think my own personal goals – which in turn have given me a much stronger sense of direction. He has also enabled me to find workable practical solutions to a series of staffing, performance and working relationship challenges. In sum these have been pivotal in establishing myself –and a brand new team- in the first six months of my posting. My confidence, clarity and leadership performance have all benefited.
