What our clients think

"It was great having Charlotte’s expertise to kick off our leadership day. Her calm tone and excellent guidance really brought Insight Discovery to life”

Director of Digital @ Burberry

"This was my first experience of coaching & Charlotte instantly made me feel completely comfortable and I could be fully open, honest and vulnerable. This was the key to me getting the most out of the coaching sessions. Charlotte has a great ability to listen which encouraged natural self-reflection."

1-1 Coaching client

“We used Charlotte’s expertise to run an Insights Discovery workshop at a recent company meeting with our HQ team.  Charlotte was completely dedicated, engaged, enthusiastic and committed through every stage to ensure what she landed was going to be of value to us.  She took the time to really understand what our challenges were, what good would look like and how she could support in the wider context. 

With a very tight deadline, Charlotte worked with us to craft something that was very specific for our needs, keeping us informed throughout and allowing us the opportunity to share feedback and re-work the plan.  On the day Charlotte delivered with confidence, conviction and empathy which really helped the team connect with her.  Often it can feel quite transactional when we work with suppliers, but Charlotte is in a different league, she genuinely cares about the outcome and the longer-term impact her training will have!”
