What Clients Have To Say
I did a short burst of coaching with Francis when there was the possibility of a step up in my career. I wasn’t sure how to prepare myself and even if I had what the new, more senior post required.
Francis gave me clarity and blew away those cobwebs of self doubt that we all have. I approached the selection process with more confidence and was successful.
Through the process he showed me that the answers we need are generally within, and how to dig into our own resources when needed. The time I spent with him has proven to be very valuable.
Francis worked with me as a consultant to BBC Local Radio stations. Later he worked as my coach.
In all his work with me he combined very intelligent insight, substantial industry expertise, excellent attention to detail, full-on energy and great personal charm.
His presentations are smart, polished and inventive.
His approach is very business-like and absolutely results orientated.
I have no hesitation in recommending him.
Francis provided me with exceptional consulting support. His experience of programming in complex, competitive markets gave me the invaluable insight and expertise I needed to push my radio brand to the next level.
His assistance in all areas of programming helped me to create a powerful and focused brand proposition that helped the business achieve its goal of becoming #1 in the core target market.
Francis is easy to work with, a great listener, none judgmental, and a big hit with the staff across the entire business.
