Over the last 8 years, Bryony and Simon have supported me in continually reshaping the focus of our management team at Sportspark. We are now a much more outward looking and more reflective team and as such have been rewarded with improved throughput and some cracking NPS scores reaffirming some great levels of customer satisfaction.  

Strictly People were appointed by South Norfolk Council Leisure Services to assist the team on its transformation to a more customer and commercially focussed future. The culture has been extensively challenged and a new and highly successful way of working is now imbedded across the service. Strictly Peoples unique and engaging delivery maximises the valuable time and funds spent on training and I fully endorse their involvement and effectiveness to any organisation wanting and requiring cultural shift.  

The time I spend with an executive coach is invaluable to both myself and my organisation. The approach adopted by the coach ensures that I am focusing on the right things for my own personal development, adopting an appropriate leadership style for the benefit of the organisation, positively challenging my thinking and bring clarity that aids key decision making. There is no doubt this has brought about real tangible commercial benefits for my organisation and the development of my career. I believe that coaching is an essential part of any senior leaders development.
