Reviews
I would highly recommend Elaine as a career coach. She is professional, polite and uses effective techniques to help with reflective practices. She has helped me learn about myself and my working practices by guiding me through a step by step process that identifies purpose and direction. In the workplace this saves valuable time and helps to maintain customer satisfaction. Thank you Elaine for your friendly and knowledgeable advice.

I had the privilege of being coached by Elaine during a key project, and her support truly elevated my understanding of project management. She has a very practical and methodical way of sharing knowledge, making complex concepts feel approachable and actionable, and she always provided thoughtful feedback focused on growth. I would highly recommend her for any coaching and mentoring role, she's a great asset to any team!
Platform Developer – Large INGO
I am very grateful to Elaine for her empathy and professionalism as she coached me through a pivotal moment of my career last year. I really liked that Elaine was flexible in her approach as I was probing through options and potential pathways. Many coaches insist on following a "recipe"; Elaine met me where I was at. Not only that, but she held a non-judgemental space for me where I could truly reflect on where I wanted to be; and not, as we often do, on where societal expectations might push me to be. Thank you - it is clear to me that coaching is your talent and passion, so I am excited to share this recommendation with our networks.
