What Clients Say

Leadership Coaching

"After working with you… that boosted my confidence on multiple levels and layers in my life.''

- Taylor Lo, Business Director, Meta

"What you have with Natalie is someone in your corner who can help ways to discuss any situation."

Having worked for my business for several years, my position changed at the start of 2022 when I was appointed Deputy MD. At that point it seemed sensible to work with a coach and I was introduced to several to choose from. In the meantime, the situation changed as my MD left and I was put in the position of leading the business. Therefore, having an external person with whom I could discuss the situation and how I might progress to the full appointment of MD was hugely useful.

I spoke to several coaches and decided to work with Natalie. I had no previous experience of working with coaches so this was a step into the unknown. What made me choose Natalie was that she was here to work with me and make the most of my skills without fundamentally changing who I was. Natalie did not tell me how great she was and impress through her CV but gave me the reassurance that we could work together to achieve my goals. She was also extremely personable and easy to feel comfortable with.

Since we started working together there has been no shortage of things to discuss. I would occasionally come to our sessions with pressing issues while at other times our conversations evolved into other areas of relevance. This helped me deal with issues which I had no experience of and now gives me greater confidence in my new role, especially dealing with internal corporate situations.

After period of time, I was appointed to the role of MD and it had obviously been a great help having Natalie available during this process. What you have with Natalie is someone “in your corner” who can help discuss ways to deal with any situation. She is available at short notice and I genuinely believe she cares for her candidates! She is, and has been, the perfect fit for me.

"She has empowered me with lifelong skills that I use in all facets of my life (professional, personal)."

I engaged Natalie as an executive coach about a year ago. I was navigating through a lot of noise and decided that an investment in ME was well worth it. And I was not wrong.

Our 1st session was an Enlightenment - while I was twirling and swirling in trying to explain what I thought was the most pressing issue, Nat has the knack of getting to the root and just like that, I gained new perspectives and insights to help me take my next steps. Our sessions are never structured and always interesting.

She has Empowered me with lifelong skills that I now use in all facets of my life (professional, personal, dealing with little people) - breathing techniques, acceptance, tapping on my inner EQ, speaking with confidence, recognising the unconscious bias in conflict situations. Nat is not just an executive coach, she’s a life coach and I’m grateful that our paths have had the chance to cross.

"What we got from 1/2 day session with Natalie was worth millions"

We were in search of a facilitator to just help our HR leadership team with some simple physical activities to release anxiety and stress built up after a week long of tough restructuring conversation, but what we got from 1/2 day session with Natalie was worth millions.

In our chase to achieve goals relentlessly, we quite often make our emotional health the collateral damage. While we always manage to achieve our goals and deal with pressure in near term, the long term impact without proper emotional intelligence can be deadly.

Natalie's balanced use of EQ teaching, interactive dialogue, story telling and physical techniques effective put a sense of humanity back into our works and chase for successes. Her command of cultural paradigm and nuances to be appreciated in our interpersonal dealing is also quite reinforcing. I highly recommend Natalie's EQ program to anyone interested in a healthy career.

"She always managed to EXCEED my expectations"

Natalie is a very UNIQUE person! Unique, because she brings a niche to the world of Development, a niche which cannot be learnt without practice.

I have evaluated/ trained/ coached 100s of Trainers/ Speakers/ Coaches in my Career. With this experience, I divide them in 2 categories - Teachers & Practitioners. What differentiates the former from the latter is - Application. Natalie is a clear PRACTITIONER, which shows in the conviction she demonstrates in the training classroom & the Keynote stage.

I have had the opportunity to collaborate with her on Development projects, on all facets of design/ development/ delivery and must say that she always managed to EXCEED my expectations.

A final word, for those who may employ her! It’s difficult to go wrong with her because she knows what she stands for and does not hesitate to say NO, if what you ask of her is not an area of strength (for her).

"Feedback from the audience was instantaneously positive"

I was very fortunate to have come across Natalie as a guest speaker to give our clients practical, interesting, fun and interactive talks and training sessions on a variety of topics.

Natalie gave us practical pointers to take away and her approach is very different from other trainers. Feedback from the audience was instantaneously positive and became Natalie's "followers" right after the first session.

Thank You Natalie! Keep up the good work.

"Natalie is an incredibly talented career coach and by every standard she is the best trainer that I've known."

Natalie is an incredibly talented career coach and by every standard she is the best trainer that I've known. Natalie started to coach my students at Peking University when she was in Goldman. Her experiences and wit make her training classes very informative and insightful. She is very skilful at combining segmented contents into compatible themes. What is worth saying is her good sense of humor makes her class very fun and lively, so it is not at all surprising to see students sitting through her consecutive classes for hours!
