“Having the chance to step outside the day-to-day of leading an organisation through having regular coaching sessions was one of the most professionally reinvigorating and personally rewarding opportunities that I have experienced.”
Senior Executive
“Executive coaching with Fran enabled me to unpack my leadership style and articulate the value and impact I contribute to my organisation. Her excellent listening, considered reflections, and depth of experience provided me a safe environment to deconstruct my own leadership journey. I completed this suite of sessions more assured of myself and with a plan for accessing my further potential.”
Non-Profit Leader
"Fran is a terrific coach. She’s disciplined and always thoughtful and constructive. She provided me challenging and valuable feedback that I found practical and highly applicable in the workplace. I’d highly recommend her as an executive coach even if you’ve been a manager of people for a long time"
Tony Jupp, Director of Conservation, Australia
“Fran is the quintessence of coaching methodology and excellence in leadership. Her contributions and value as a competency coach and high character mentor have been priceless. Under her guidance, I was able to identify strengths with clarity and ‘feel the fear’ through challenges. Fran’s wisdom has leveraged me to accelerate my leadership journey.”
Yvette Gavalovic, Lead Teacher
“Fran has a unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life and bring the best out of them. One of Fran’s key strengths is her ability to bring people together in a non-threatening way to improve their practice. She brings the best out of the members of a team, by coaching them to leverage their strengths and seek support in areas of weakness. Even during challenging times, she constantly demonstrates enthusiasm, determination, and optimism, leading by example. With Fran’s mentorship and coaching, I have thrived in my role and have gained invaluable insights and knowledge that have translated to improved outcomes for the teams I work with. I highly recommend working with Fran and I hope to do so again in the future.”
Organisational Leader
"Fran, thanks for your follow-up resources and check-in. I have been working on some of the strategies and attending some PDs to cap off a very full, but productive term… I feel there is a positive transformation emerging and your support is fast-tracking it. I am aiming to book in some further sessions… The faculty gave me a surprise Appreciation Day last week, so that was very moving. Small, but achievable actions must be paying off."
James, Head of Faculty
"I have had the great pleasure of being coached by Fran. Through her skilled clear questioning and validations I have come to distil from my messy thoughts what is of greatest importance for me. Fran cultivates a calm and supportive space for sharing, responsively attentive to reassurance when needed. After each session, I always walk away with clear realisable actions to remedy my challenges and advance my career."
Louise, Associate Professor, Australia
"Fran is an exceptional coach. I had the pleasure to be coached by Fran and she helped me to see new insights beyond my expectations. She is a talented coach who creates a trusted space that has the rare, balanced mix of deep exploration, encouragement and accountability to bring about transformative change. She brings to the coaching table excellent listening skills, powerful questions and business knowledge which helped to unlock the perspectives that were holding me back. Fran's coaching style immediately put me at ease and she genuinely partnered with me to achieve the outcomes we set in the coaching session. If you are looking for a highly skilled and effective coach, it's without hesitation that I recommend Fran."
Kate Glover, HR Business Partner
"Being in Europe, it's quite a rewarding experience to spend an hour in the morning with Fran, to start my day having done some powerful work on myself or having figured my next steps out. She can do that thanks to her talent for judicious use of time and silence, her challenging questions and unmatched ability to connect the dots in my thought process. Fran's super power is her ability to adapt. She adapts to my topics that range from deep and personal, to practical, to work related. With the support she provides, I feel like I have a safe space to grow and I could not recommend a better growth partner."
Léti Bertrand, ADHD Coach, France.
