I have been working with Gai for the past two years and have found her to be a thoughtful and insightful coach, with a direct style of communication that is warm and engaging. Gai’s ability to communicate in a direct but friendly manner has been very welcome in terms of helping me to be accountable to myself for the actions that we set in our coaching sessions.
As a result of our sessions, I have become more confident as a leader and more able to communicate effectively with my team. Another valuable outcome for me has been working with Gai to identify my values and what is most important to me. Through this I have been able to bring a greater level of mindfulness to my work and achieve more balance between my work and personal life, something I previously struggled with.
One of the things I like most about Gai is there is no fluffy stuff and the raft of tools she has available to support the coaching sessions are practical and easy to understand.
I would recommend Gai to anyone looking for a coach that will cut through the noise and help them to grow as a leader in business and also as a person outside of work, which I believe is important for health and well being and to set yourself up for success.
