"Working for and with Virginia has helped me on my personal and professional journey and development, not only as a manager but also as a leader with my own and unique style. It gives me immense satisfaction to impart the knowledge I've gained and see my team grow. Virginia helped me be true to myself while respecting the right of others to do the same."

"Health Care Professional

Challenge
To clarify progress and future goals after 3 years of establishing, and successfully running, a health care practice

Benefits
The entrepreneur achieved greater clarity of his goals for his business as well as the aspects which were important for him to stay personally involved in. Staff were clearer as to what was expected of them and how they could contribute to business success over the longer term. There was a consequent increase in income in all 3 centres and staff training and selection continues to progress on a more confident footing."

"I asked Virginia to be my coach because I was curious about how she helped leaders of executive teams make outstanding performance repeatable. She asked questions and listened and listened and listened. ... I began to see my patterns of language, behaviours, and personal style that clients were referring to when they said "we liked 'that', keep doing it." Now I can make my success repeatable, consciously rather than intuitively, and people I work with understand me better."

Consultant, BPI Solutions

Virginia is extremely experienced and draws upon years of her own work experience and deep understanding of the psychology and culture of business.

I have benefited from practical examples Virginia has given me on how to deal with situations and her wry, pragmatic, non judgemental approach to looking at issues and challenges. I also find the genuine encouragement and positive reinforcement from Virginia very helpful and encouraging.

I have benefited from having such a high calibre coach - which reinforces my belief in myself and creates a virtuous circle wherein I am aware that I am investing in my own development and career.  

I am able to apply a new lens to situations and people now, which is very useful in my ability to navigate and direct situations towards outcomes that best suit my needs and defined goals.

The 'formula' that we developed for approaching work and negotiations is very helpful and applies across a myriad of situations in and outside of the workplace.

I would highly recommend Virginia to anyone who needs good advice around strategy & operations from someone highly experienced, realistic, honest and very skilful at working out a pathway that is challenging in requiring you to do new things, but takes you to the next stage / stop in your journey.

"Virginia helped me identify how and when to utilise my archetypes to have balance in my business practice, set realistic goals and FOCUS on immediate goals while getting to the bigger picture goals. As a result of the process with Virginia, I completed building a website,enrolled more students in the children's art courses, enrolled two sponsors for my special creativity event and completed 2 videos in less than a week.

Virginia has the right mix of focus and knows when to praise to lift up, and when to encourage me to go beyond my limiting beliefs. On top of that Virginia has a wealth of knowledge about business leadership and mentoring, and has been a wonderful role model for me to go by. I found the skills and strategies she has shared with me have been invaluable and I appreciate her presence in my life with gratitude."
