Ossian is the most business-orientated coaching practice we work with. Naomi understands that coaching is about results and helps us to track that value through clear objectives and progress reviews and a deep understanding of what I need, having been a buyer of coaching herself. She has worked with a number of our very senior people and we have made significant progress. Naomi also provided team coaching addressing some problematic issues at a very difficult and sensitive time for the business.

Carolann brings a rare and unique skill set to her work. You are unlikely to have met anyone like her before. She is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about her craft of educating and developing people at all levels including senior leaders. She brings a mindset of excellence and growth to everything she does and she expects it in those she develops. She overlays the technical learning and content she presents with commercialism and client-centricity which ensures relevance and impact - and she has a deep knowledge across a vast array of topics and materials which means she can assist people to understand the learning more deeply. She is great fun to boot! I knew of Carolann's reputation for the design and delivery of a globally leading offering long before I met her and I was not disappointed.

Naomi helped me find the courage to swim among the "big sharks" with confidence, honesty and integrity. She encouraged me to anchor my leadership skills in the values that I hold dear. Then, she challenged me to take greater risks to live - fully - by those values. I started having conversations with difficult people that I had been avoiding for many years, defending my decisions and protecting my team. It would have been easier to swim away but Naomi kept me afloat during a far more hazardous journey. It has been transformative, and I am stronger than ever.

Ossian has provided Executive Coaching to executives in our organisation for over five years. I found Naomi exceptionally easy to work with and extremely impactful as a coach. I received excellent feedback, both from the individual clients, and also from their line mangers and sponsors. She combines a thoughtful but empathic style: highly supportive and yet appropriately challenging.

Ossian delivered virtual coaching to a large number of our Senior Executive Assistants. We achieved an enormous amount in a short space of time and found the telephone perfect for this sort of personal development work with the individuals and the geography involved.
