Team Coaching Clients

"Thank you for helping our team get beyond their mental edge! After our day with you, the team felt a lot more focused and galvanised. There was a real sense of purpose and a desire to achieve that purpose. I think the one-on-one interview prior to the day’s session was invaluable – it meant you really understood us as individuals and how we fitted together as a team. There has been a genuine and lasting impact of the day’s activities – especially with respect to the mindset of the team. For that, I cannot thank you enough!"

"The team work that Hothouse Group did with us was a revelation. They helped our team air concerns that had been lying dormant, distinguish important from urgent and realize when we were engaged in displacement activity. They used their intuitive flair to suss things out about us that we had not been aware of. By the end of it, we all felt closer as a team, clearer about defining our goals, better at keeping our eyes fixed on the key objectives and altogether less reactive. We felt sure we would be more productive, more positive and more effective in forging the company’s future. We have in fact since made big strides, increasing revenue and completing what at the time seemed dauntingly challenging projects."

"As well as achieving the goal of successfully training attendees in the particular modules, the sessions also created an enhanced sense of 'team' amongst staff and volunteers that has persisted to this day. I happily recommend them to any individuals or organisations seeking training in any aspect of human relations."

"Zoe and Leanne from the Hothouse Group spent valuable time with me and my team before, during and after our team session, really focusing on the key needs of the team, what was working well and what could be improved to achieve exemplary performance. I found that I immediately appreciated their direct coaching approach, which has been invaluable to me as a leader. Similarly, the session itself resulted in a highly energised team, excited about the future vision. We came away with commitments and practical steps to help us keep that calm energy flowing in future meetings. I would highly recommend the Hothouse Group to any team wanting to improve their performance."

"Everyone was talking about how much they gained even days later. I also gained insight in some of my own behaviour which I now feel I have a better understanding of. As a qualified and experienced lecturer, I thought Leanne led the group beautifully, holding their eager attention and facilitating a great learning experience."

"I have been working in professional services firms and FTSE 100 companies for more than 25 years with access to the usual development resources. Zoe is exceptional. Her approach to coaching, leadership and personal development is innovative and inspirational."

"Success is what we all want in life in our relationships or our work life. With the increase of “being busy” comes quite often unmet deadlines and unmanageability. That’s where coaching comes to the rescue. These sessions enabled me to conquer the balance of work and play. Leanne offered one hundred percent attention in the moment. I knew she cared. Leanne has integrity and seemed to know how and what to say to focus me."

"When I met Zoe, one of the first conversations we had was 'What's your objective professionally ? Head a business line. How long to get there ? Five years. That's too long, let's talk.' Two years later, I was heading a business line, and she had significantly improved my ability to find my solutions to many personal and professional challenges on the way."

"I saw Leanne to enhance my ability to manage my time. As opposed to a time management training course which taught me techniques to adopt in my daily work, which I was never able to maintain, coaching made me more clearly understand why I worked in particular ways. I learned to recognise patterns of behaviour which were inhibiting me and to incorporate more positive behaviours in my daily life. As a result I have enjoyed positive growth in my professional and personal life which I have been able to maintain. Leanne is very reassuring in her approach. She provided me with the guidance to look deeply at the topics we spoke about and feel comfortable enough to positively and realistically challenge my patterns of behaviour."

"Zoë is like the original King's wise counsel - full of insight, impartial and totally indispensable!"

"Leanne is never quick to rush in or push you towards a solution. She is hugely experienced and you feel that nothing you can say will phase her. She remains strong, objective and focused on you and your best interests and biggest game at all times - without ever trying to 'fix' you or let you go for an 'easy' solution."

"Zoe has helped me see my life and career in a different dimension, looking in to see all that is out there. My confidence has grown as has my way of dealing with challenges, more methodical rather than reactionary. The impact I have professionally has increased exponentially."

“ Right from the very first "chemistry-check" I feel that Zoe got the measure of me and established great trust and rapport. She was challenging and forthright and she didn't leave me with anywhere to hide. But never in a way that crossed a line or felt like it was too much, or was being done in anything other than my best interests. She was also clearly focused on the true performance objectives of my coaching and has helped me make great progress on all 3. So from my perspective her skills in helping me overcome some of the barriers that stood between me and better performance were absolutely top notch. It's been an amazing experience.”
