What Clients have to say…

“Pip gives exactly the right amount of space and challenge to give you real clarity. She deeply listens, reflects and then always asks the perfect question at the perfect time! 

She’s had a huge effect on me personally and as a result the businesses I am involved in, I am much calmer, and have a better sense of purpose and well-being since working with Pip. And that, in turn, has enabled me to be clearer and broker some tricky situations.

Commercially and culturally there have been some massive benefits. We are in a fantastic place – doubling every year for one business, and head of target in another. I’ve got real confidence in these businesses now and where we are headed. There’s no doubt in my mind that Pip has been instrumental in that.”

— John Foster, Asset Fusion

“Pip has really helped us as a business – we have grown 60% since we started working with her.  

She has a real knack for taking the emotion out of things and helping us to pull back and look at a situation from a different perspective. That’s been instrumental in us forming the vision for the business and putting together a growth plan. She has also worked with us on culture and positioning. 

But she has also had a big effect on the directors personally too – I would say we are all a lot more confident. The directors have all moved up through the ranks, so having Pip to give us some guidance and business expertise, sharing tools for tackling various challenges has been incredibly helpful. I’d always be very happy to recommend her.”

— Paul Atkins, Thinking Space

“Pip has an amazing ability to get beneath the surface of something and focus on the real issues. She gives clarity very quickly, which is very helpful. As well as supporting us through succession planning, she also helped us come up with a clear plan to solve various challenges, broken down into manageable chunks.

She worked with us on the branding and positioning of our business, which is the bedrock of everything we do now. I can also say with confidence that we wouldn’t be where we are today if we hadn’t worked with Pip. 

Whilst the business has benefitted, I would say that the biggest impact of working with Pip has been felt by various individuals including me. She gives you confidence and certainty – not an easy thing to measure! But she is a really strong communicator, able to adapt her style to suit the person she is talking to. 

I’d say if you’re considering working with Pip that you need to be fully committed and all in, then you will really reap the benefits.”

— Rebekah Jubb, Bell Cornwell

“I was impressed with Pip right from when I first met her. She is a brilliant listener, but is then fantastic at de-cluttering – cutting through the noise to get to the heart of the issue. Then she reaches into her toolkit and brings out precisely the right tool to tackle the challenge. That is such a great skill.

As well as coaching me, Pip has run some excellent sessions with our team, which they have really enjoyed. As a business we still use a number of the tools Pip shared with me years ago. 

Her biggest impact was undoubtedly getting me to realise I was a business owner, not a professional services adviser with a team. That was incredibly empowering, and really changed my approach to Footprint. She also got me to recognise I needed a better way to articulate what we did and the value we brought to our clients. We’ve now split out our offering into distinct products and services, which is so much better. 

What I would say to somebody considering working with her? She’s a great person and highly experienced too – she’s been there, done it and got the t-shirt!”

— Paul Kempton, Footprint Music

“Pip’s work with the business on defining our cultural values has been transformative. It forms the heart of everything we do now. She has engaged very well with the team, and won them over – that was very impressive.

Personally, I would say we have a good chemistry. She is able to cut through the noise and translate my ramblings into focused actions. Then she very cleverly finds the right tool to help me tackle those challenges. 

She’s also very disciplined – if she says she’s going to do something she does it. That’s something I very much admire as a trait. I don’t think there’s anybody I know who doesn’t get on with Pip, so I would never have any hesitation in recommending her.”
