“It is rare for a training course to resonate for a quarter of a century, but Maynard Leigh’s ‘Presenting with Presence’ has done exactly that. I still vividly remember the mental and emotional challenges of the exercises – the nerves and subsequent sense of achievement. Maynard Leigh creates a high-trust environment that allows for true behavioural change rather than just theoretical learning. Having experienced the long-term impact firsthand, I have brought their services into every company I have worked in since.”

“Working with Terry has been a revelation, when I first started my coaching journey, I had little idea of what to expect and was quite sceptical on how this would help me. Through Terry’s guidance, questioning and support I have gained clarity on my leadership style, learnt how to recognise situations and the different tools that I can use in these situations. It has enabled me to build stronger relationships across the organisation. The coaching sessions challenged me to think differently and helped me gain confidence. I would highly recommend taking the executive coaching journey.”
