Testimonials
James Welch - Security & Training Professional, Veteran.
Simply put, I would not have succeeded in my transition from my military to civilian career without Amanda’s coaching, honesty and continuous support.
Having joined the military and commissioned young, my purpose and sense of self was completely intertwined and indistinguishable from military service. To say that I was under-prepared to exit the service was an understatement!
Amanda’s sheer of force of personality and tireless enthusiasm helped me during the early conversations whilst still serving to bridge the gap in transforming my military experience to competitive, translatable skills for a potential future employer.
Even after I landed a civilian role and had moved into this next stage, she was on hand to challenge and stretch my assumptions. She actively listened to my experiences as a newly minted civilian and saw I may have been just settling and thinking that I was lucky to have been offered a position! In reality I had earned that role, had value and needed to remember that.
Subsequently, Amanda coached and prepared me for a promotion position in a different Sector. Without her tenacious attitude and unwavering belief I wouldn’t have been ready for interview nor performed to get the role.
Lisa Phillips - Regional Managing Director -NatWest
I have had the pleasure and the benefit of a coaching and consultancy relationship with Amanda Curtis over the last 5 years. Mand forms a deep understanding of the dynamics at play, immersing herself in the team so that she feels an integral part of the solution whilst at the same time sprinkling it with her expert magic to help you find the way. You won't hear about Mand's impressive credentials on Day 1 (unless you ask, of course) but, over time, it becomes clear that her adaptable approach & deep knowledge could never be learned in a text book. They are the product years of experience with clients inside and outside the commercial arena. Highly recommended.
Isara Cotton - Head of Direct & Digital Sales - Lombard
Where do I start… Mand is an outstanding individual who has played an integral part in shaping the Lombard leadership and capability culture for several years. Increases in staff and customer engagement can be directly linked to the work Mand has delivered.
Mand has the skill set to coach at all levels of seniority and can do so through turning complex concepts into real and tangible activity, all while promoting connection, collaboration and a ‘safe to fail/learn’ mindset. She has an incredible ability to ‘join the dots’ and help others do the same.
Skills include design and delivery of complex learning and capability plans, digital transformation, technical/industry learning, growth, financial delivery, risk culture, DE&I, I could go on.
Mand has a disarming way of helping people stop, reflect and improve. In a world where many of us are ‘time poor’ it’s incredibly valuable to have a true professional such as Mand, help navigate the complexities of the world. A truly excellent leadership coach.
