“A fabulous experience. I’ve learnt so much about myself and made changes that have flipped my life on its head. I never thought I would feel so secure and confident in myself as I do now. You have changed my life, Al. Thank you.”
Eadie Witzenfield, Seymour House
“Al has a very warming, calm and laid-back energy which makes you feel instantly comfortable. He has a unique ability to identify any issues, really drill into them to find the root of the problem and what actions you can take to make changes/improvements. I would highly recommend his Coaching whether you focus focusing on aspects of your professional life or traits in your personal life.”
Kate Nolan–Burgess,
Head of social media, Deadhappy
“Alastair played a key role in delivering our leadership development programme last year. He very quickly understood the important elements of the culture of the organisation, effortlessly grasped the key themes that were to be integrated into the programme and therefore developed a style for coaching that enabled him to have traction with everyone that he was working with. More importantly, his coaching style enabled his coachees to make giant leaps forward in their development as managers and leaders for the future. He made a really positive impact on our business.”
Peter Hollins,
Chief Talent Officer, Iris Worldwide
“Alastair is an outstanding coach. I consider it extremely rare to find someone of Alastair’s caliber and commercial experience in an ‘emotionally intelligent’ field such as coaching. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
James Perry,
Co Founder at B Lab, Founder at Snowball, Chair at COOK
“Al makes you feel a little uncomfortable at first. In a good way. He has an uncanny knack of zeroing in on the issues and before you know it things start happening. We are all inclined to feel we are unique. Al respects this cherished individuality whilst quietly applying pressure. I found his natural confidence and obvious integrity supported the subtle but insistent messages that he delivers through his coaching. Coaching is far easier said than done and Al does it very, very well.”
Richard Hamerton-Stove,
Principle at Capgemini Invent
"Alastair's Fast Fix consultation really did what it says on the box; our brief, focused session got the creative juices flowing and I came away with two key initiatives that were welcomed by my colleagues and, more importantly, are being actioned! A most worthwhile investment."
Helen White,
Director, Public I
“I worked with Alastair to help me focus on my goals. His approach facilitated me analysing my strengths and weaknesses and challenging me to justify my decisions (and even more importantly my lack of decisions!). The process was hugely helpful to me in forming a clear plan for my next steps. The “gap” between conversations was very useful in ensuring that I had thought through the issues raised in the last conversation properly and that real progress was made.
I have no hesitation in recommending Alastair Hill.”
Eric Dunmore,
CEO of Longshots PLC
“Al is a real pleasure to work with - intuitive and personable, ensuring a great outcome on every project he’s worked with me on.”
Chris Freeland,
Executive Chairman at RAPP
“I first met Alastair a few years ago whilst on a leadership away day he was running and which I found immensely enjoyable and inspiring. So when confronted with a couple professional challenges that I felt needed a bit attention, he sprung to mind instantly. Within just a couple of sessions, Alastair had helped me to focus on the source of my challenges and take ownership of the process, introducing some effective tools and techniques that I was able to easily apply to change my situation and mindset for the better. If you are at a juncture in your career, with what feels like an unsurmountable challenge to overcome, or a big hairy goal to achieve, I can't recommend Alastair highly enough.”
Ben O’Connor, Business Director at Aesop & Fable
“I am not a naturally confident presenter and the nerves definitely take over. Alastair dramatically changed the way I think about presenting, combatting the root cause of my fears and helping change the way I mentally prepare. He helped me strip away the negative and unhelpful thoughts and replaced them with confident and positive messages. Suffice to say my last presentation went amazingly well!”
Jessica Anderson-Ramshall,
Head of People, m/SIX Global
“Alastair worked with me as a coach through a very tricky transition phase for the company, and in my leadership role specifically. Alastair brought great intelligence and insight to the issues, teasing out courses of action and helping navigate thorny issues. He is compellingly clear, and also very sensitive in separating emotion from action. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his coaching - great results, extremely valuable - and a great guy to work with.”
Georgie Stewart,
Managing Partner, Grey advertising
“Alastair was incredible in helping me define where I wanted to go in my career and help me draw the roadmap to get there. His insights and understanding were invaluable and certainly gave me a better understanding of how my actions and behaviours impact on my environment. The lessons learned have not only helped me at work, but in my general life as well.”
