Testimonials

“Rebecca helped me step back from some difficult leadership and conflict situations, understand the different people and motivations involved, and think much more clearly about how best to respond.
 
Her coaching helped me develop practical strategies for challenging people while getting the best out of them, and navigating difficult situations towards a positive resolution.
 
I found her thoughtful, perceptive and particularly helpful in turning frustration into clarity and a way forward.”

“Communications is an important skill but I’d be the first to admit that it wasn’t the strongest part of my wheelhouse.
 
However, bringing in Rebecca to work with me and my team allowed us to learn from someone who is experienced and motivating, which pushed us out of our comfort zone and accelerated our ability to develop our own shortcuts to engage others and share our successes. The team’s confidence has improved and they’re now communicating”
 
Head of IT Architecture, Tech Function 
“I met Rebecca soon after being informed that after 26 years at the same company I was going to be made redundant. Rebecca helped me to clarify and begin to articulate my next career chapter. She helped me unpack my motivations, strength awareness, both visible and hidden hang ups and concerns about what I was to do next.
 
Her good humour, conversational style and open and honest approach was refreshing and and exactly what I needed when I was still feeling a little bruised from my recent redundancy announcement. We explored where my knowledge, skills and experience could be best applied and how and why I should also consider pivots into new industries
Rebecca helped me better explain who I am, what I bring and why a potential recruiter should consider me.
 
I found her willingness to flex and adapt her coaching content very useful, it never felt like I was jumping through the designated hoops of a strict coaching programme. Her storytelling and examples from her own career were always relevant to the points we were discussing.
 
Rebecca’s warmth and charm always conveyed that she had the best intentions for me, wanting me to find the answers to my own questions and that half the win was learning that I have information I need to succeed.
 
I looked forward to our sessions, always got something from them and was supported by the write ups that she provided afterwards so that I could review and reflect accordingly.
 
I’m pleased to share that three months after my redundancy announcement, I have secured a new role. It’s very different from the roles I’ve held previously, and I’m confident that without Rebecca’s input I would not have considered it, let alone had the self-confidence to apply and interview. My newly clarified understanding of my skills and motivations broadened my horizons and ambition, helping me enter the next chapter of my career.”
 
CX leader, Retail
“Every Tuesday I look forward to listening to a new video from Rebecca.
 
Sometimes working in a communications role can be challenging and lonely. Trying to ensure that you get the correct message out there in a way that everyone is happy is not always easy and can sometimes feel like you are going mad!  
 
However, Rebecca’s insightful nuggets of communications info, really help to reset your mind – you’re not going mad – and help provide different perspectives that you hadn’t considered before.  
 
Great work Rebecca – please keep them coming!“
 
Project Manager, Life Sciences
“I brought in Rebecca to help launch the new purpose and vision for my Retail Technology Department.
 
She integrated into my leadership team and looked for opportunities within the areas, squads, functions, and met with the right people. This meant that she took an approach that suited the company culture, existing channels, and my communication strengths.
 
She came with new ideas, activities, approaches, and a healthy dose of challenge to ensure we made the best decisions and kicked off the journey right.
 
I look forward to working with her on future projects.”
 
CTO, Fashion Retail
“I was very fortunate to have the amazing opportunity to work with Rebecca closely as my Communications coach. She helped me to explore my unwanted behaviours and develop ways to improve them. Her ability to encourage me was truly remarkable. She invited me to take risks, presented me with questions that make me think about myself, and provided an environment where I felt safe to share. Thank you.”
 
Manager, Management Consultant
“We needed to accelerate digital delivery to make a step change in value creation for the company. Part of that was creating the right environment to ideate, prototype, scale, and ultimately create new digital businesses.Leading such a change, with stakeholders varying from CEO to >1,000 front line staff, across multiple management structures, with differing priorities and against the backdrop of the pandemic, needed deep stakeholder focus and a comprehensive engagement strategy. Rebecca provided the frameworks and rigour to ensure that we got this right, which proved to be critical to the successful creation of our innovation hub.”
 
Director, Digital Function
“When I was starting out my consulting career, Rebecca was a great mentor and coach with communications and helping me develop confidence to deal with difficult client situations. In particular, Rebecca helped me with not saying “yes” to everything (as I very keen to impress junior!) but say “no” and say it with purpose, whilst being delicate to my client’s needs. This invaluable coaching really helped me throughout my career to date and is something I have valued & utilized in my working life. I couldn’t recommend Rebecca more if you need help in the complex world of comms & stakeholder management. Thanks again RSK :)”
 
Junior Consultant, Management Consultant
“As we scaled our start-up we needed to adapt our pitch for a different investor group, and elevate the communication skills of our leadership team to engage effectively with each other and gain the confidence of the Board of Directors. Rebecca refocused our messaging, delivered media training and coached the team, providing them frameworks and tools to succeed.“
 
Start-up Co-Founder & CEO, Energy Technology
“Following a company wide strategy change, the restructure caused significant disruption and uncertainty impacting bothe culture and delivery. Rebecca was brought in to strengthen the team leadership to improve communications, collaboration and lead their teams to delivery.
 
Operating at a senior level, she reset team dynamics, sharpened communication, and—critically—instilled a culture of personal accountability. This drove stronger alignment, faster decision-making, and more consistent execution.
 
The shift was tangible: the team moved from uncertainty to stability, from unclear roles to true ownership, and to a more open, effective cross-functional dialogue. This proved critical at a pivotal moment where disciplined execution and personal ownership was required to support growth and cultural change.”

“Thanks again for a fun and informative evening at Birkbeck. Let me know when you’ll be a guest speaker somewhere – I’ll tag along”
 
Management Consultancy & Organisational Change MSc Student
“Rebecca worked with myself and my leadership team with our communications and stakeholder management needs, while also facilitating workshops and events. She was my sounding board for ideas and managing difficult internal situations, to help me work out my next move and influence challenging colleagues. Thirdly, she helped me grow comfortable being on camera. Before I’d avoid it, but now I confidently engage and I’m unfazed.”
 
Customers & Markets VP, Energy
“I worked with Rebecca as my company was scaling. In order to take my company to the next step I needed to learn how to communicate strategy rather than tactics and talk to the team rather than having one-on-ones. Rebecca helped me understand the difference between personal and group interaction and the challenge of communicating a vision rather than tasks. Rebecca gave me tools to identify the origins of people’s resistance to new ideas and how to defuse it by addressing my counterpart’s intrinsic motivation.
 
What I liked about working with Rebecca is her ability to listen and personalise her advice to her client and the business situation. I thoroughly recommend working with Rebecca.”
 
Fintech,  Founder
“I’ve worked with Rebecca for the last couple of years, during which time she led several comms initiatives for our broader team. Rebecca brings ideas and expertise and has helped shape and guide how we communicate. She listens closely to what we want to achieve, provides suggestions and executes both autonomously and to a very high standard. Additionally Rebecca provided coaching to myself and some of my team, helping me to think more strategically about how I communicate and improving my communication skills. I’m very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her.”
 
Digital Function VP, Energy
“I reached out for support on how to become a better communicator regarding a team problem that I was dealing with. Rebecca helped me become a more effective communicator, her advice was very specific and relevant as well as structured in a way that enabled me to properly put it into practice without any trouble. In addition, she assisted in identifying pain points and red flags. Thank you for your value and practical ideas!”
 
HR Coordinator, HR Function
“As previous colleagues, I contacted Rebecca ahead of my wedding day where I was concerned that I wouldn’t be able  to give a natural and engaging speech. They gave me some very good advice on how to improve my delivery, providing different techniques to use on the day. Thankfully I was able to deliver a confident and personable speech whilst “owning the room” which led to lots of positive comments. “
 
Groom-To-Be, Management Consultant
“Rebecca’s in person coaching is every bit as engaging, incisive and helpful as the entertaining and helpful videos suggest. I came away from our conversation confident in my own ability to manage some tricky comms issues and having been challenged to try some new things.
 
If you are wondering about how you might better communicate then you should get in touch, and watch the videos.”
