"My time spent with Polly Archer in my executive coaching sessions was
one of the best investments of my career. I had recently been promoted
to a job 3 times the scope/responsibility of my previous role. Polly
gave me the tools, insight and confidence in myself to make the step
change required. The changes that I witnessed in myself were dramatic. I
am now a more compassionate leader, and have changed my communication
style for the better. I am much more settled and focused in my new role,
and the results are starting to show. I received a great compliment
from 2 colleagues today on how I acted with calm confidence under great
pressure! Thanks Polly!" VP Hilton Hotels |
"Tom has added real value during our coaching journey - he created an environment that allows telling insights to be generated from within me and helped me distil these down to practical steps and techniques that I've used each day to become a more effective business leader." CFO-Europe, IHG |

His critical judgment and insights have led me towards better and more effective delegation, attention to the perceptions of others and the importance of thoughtful, sensitive communication.
I have several decades of experience and yet Tom helped me believe that continuing to improve myself as a leader is not only possible but desirable and produces results almost immediately." |
