TESTIMONIALS

Struggling alone in the business world isn’t easy; a good business idea isn’t any more than a good idea until it is put into practice, that’s the hard part. Carole’s expertise and understanding has been paramount in the success of Jim Fitness.

Without Carole’s expertise, sympathetic understanding of business problems and understanding of my lack of appropriate knowledge of some of the finer points of business etiquette, I would not be in business today.

I have found working with Carole to be an enjoyable experience, not a chore to be avoided until a crisis needs to be resolved. Carole has got under the skin of my business and understands it as a business commodity. As a personal trainer I look after the fitness and health of my clients. As a business coach, Carole Davidson Coaching is working with me in looking after the health and fitness of my business!

Jim Gregory Personal Trainer, Jim Fitness

At first I was unsure I needed coaching and how it could be of use to me after running a very successful business for 26 years. Having met Carole she came across as a straight forward person able to use open questions to gain insight into what my thoughts were.

I was aware some changes needed to be made but due to life changing circumstances I did not have the confidence and self belief to do this. Once issues were aired I was able to formulate a plan of action of how to progress and what outcomes I wanted to achieve. With Carole’s support I became focussed and progressed changes within the business and had the motivation and confidence to move forward. Carole’s non-judgemental attitude, probing questions, the listening and clarification of what I was saying all assisted me in decision making.

I would say to anyone considering coaching Go for It! – you never know what strengths and resourcefulness Carole and you might uncover – all with the flexibility of delivering the service to meet your needs, from meeting in hotels, at the office and to even walking the dog!

Maryann Huxter MD, Hygiene Cleaning Techniques

I was not sure what to expect from business coaching but was aware I needed to have a plan and clarity. Carole supported me as with the clarity I gained higher esteem and confidence to take the business onwards. Now that I have a plan for the way forward I feel opportunities keeping presenting themselves! Carole’s listening and reflecting back enabled me to clarify what I needed to do. The impromptu emails I received from Carole brightened my day and kept me focussed and on track. I would certainly recommend business coaching sessions with Carole Davidson Coaching for those people seriously wanting to move the business up a gear.

Sue Landon, PR Garage

I am already fairly familiar with the process of coaching but have found that some coaches don’t understand the issues or try to give too many solutions. Carole was friendly and very flexible, a good listener and not overly directive. Carole guided me towards better clarity which led to some ‘light bulb moments! I was able to verbalise the insights I gained in a non-threatening environment and was able to be flexible around my priorities without rigid plans being enforced which suited my style.

I would certainly recommend Carole as a business coach, especially if you are not sure of where your priorities lie or are just not clear of the way forward. Through her excellent questioning skills to gain clarity, we worked with my issues as they arose and I was able to design my own plan to accommodate these.

Fiona Taylor MD, Vital Impact

Our sessions together gave me the opportunity to clarify my objectives and have a very clear action plan of specific tasks to do as well as general lines of enquiry and things to try out. Carole’s questioning technique enabled me to articulate my own knowledge and focus my efforts, she was particularly good at picking up dissonance between what I thought I was saying consciously, and I was really saying.

Carole was able to relay this information as an observation without judgement, so I didn’t feel cornered into defending, but could think it through as an interesting impartial insight – I really appreciated this aspect.

I would certainly recommend Carole as a coach who is able to help you clarify your objectives and to get you moving on achieving them!

Jo Crowson, Business Development Manager, Circomedia, Bristol

Carole has a very warm, empathic, calm nature. She is remarkable at getting me to focus and not drift off in another direction. She has sometimes challenged my reasons for doing something, which at first I found rather difficult, but ultimately I thought was necessary and in many ways liberating. I have subsequently made significant progress in my career and feel I am in a much better position to tackle the future on my own.

Elizabeth Goddard, Training & Development Manager

Carole’s technique is very focussed and direct, which allowed me to make immediate and noticeable progress in reaching my goals. She established rapport instantly, and kept me on track.

Liz Goddard, Customer Services Manager

Carole has worked in the same environment as her clients and she immediately understands their challenges and gets straight to the point. I was impressed by the way she avoided simply telling me what to do, and instead helped me focus my own goals into a clear and individual strategy.
