“Fiona is the best facilitator I have worked with in 20 years.”.........“Outstanding! The pace was right. Fiona has great empathy and is a good role model for the tools and techniques. She is warm and engaging and showed great discretion in knowing when to digress and when to keep us focussed.”......“I got real and specific value; building confidence to work on weaker relationships my influencing capability. I’ll be working on both!”

Personal coaching by Fiona was a really positive experience - enabling me to understand my own behaviour and that of others, resulting in an ability to make the best of every situation. Highly recommended!

The programme has led to a number of specific impacts for HIE: the creation of a pool of current and future leaders; enhanced strategic thinking and awareness among middle to senior managers; the introduction of a robust and common approach to problem solving; the development of a common language that can be used throughout the organisation and enhanced project activity.

“The Exec team members have been ‘blown away’ by the level of togetherness, solidarity, engagement to our business agenda and understanding demonstrated by the alumni from the High Performance Programme . Their achievements are testament to the connection that you had with them as their coach and I am very thankful for your effort, skill and genuine interest in their development.”
Kieran A. Dunne, Operations Director, Bulmers
Fiona is direct, has real clarity of purpose and is totally results focused. If you require support in cutting through the clutter and achieving results I would highly recommend her.

Wolfson entered into a collaborative partnership with The Performance Collective a few years ago and our first engagement was a Leadership Development Programme. Using a blend of individual and group-based interventions, this leadership programme had real-life challenges thrown into the mix and did what it said on the tin – developed strong leadership skills. Fiona herself brings strong facilitation skills coupled with astute challenge and a real passion for learning and development. All this has translated into robust, comprehensive programmes for Wolfson and a strong working relationship with The Performance Collective.

“I had the pleasure of attending an extended development course prepared, organised and largely delivered by Fiona. I was particularly impressed at how well Fiona managed to meld the course content to relevant personal experience. I was engaged and energised throughout the programme. I am still using the learning gained in my day to day activity. She succeeded in making the learning meaningful for a disparate group of staff with differing levels of experience and understanding. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Fiona again....her insight and ability to challenge constructively is rare and valuable.”

We now know each other better as a team and are much more effective together. At the beginning I found the strategy stuff really difficult, but I am now much more confident that we can continue to use the tools and techniques that we learnt in the future.
Delegate on High Performance Leadership Programme, Eden Scott
The combination of high-challenge and high support, as well as the blending of the strategy and personal skills development had made the programme a success. There were some surprises in the people who emerged as high potentials.
Guy Martin, Managing Director, Eden Scott
“Fiona and her team go out of their way to understand the key deliverables for the business and ensure their interventions are consistently aligned. Flexible, adaptable and always available!”
Christine Penman HR Learning and Development Partner William Grant & Sons Ltd
Fiona’s outstanding skills in communication and organisational analysis combined with her sensitivity to organisational culture and her personal warmth and humour consistently inspire confidence. Her work with us over the past 3 years has been an essential underpinning for effective change management particularly in developing a performance culture. Whilst maintaining her essential objectivity – and indeed no hesitation in probing and challenging - we feel that Fiona is an honorary member of our senior team and has made a vital contribution to our transformational activity and current successes.
