Julie is a very engaging individual who always manages to get the most from those attending her course by actively encouraging participation and discussion amongst the group. I have left each module with a fresh and dynamic knowledge of the topic which I have been able to apply directly to my work and personal life.
Julie is an enthusiastic trainer who knows how to keep her audience engaged and ensures that they all participate whole-heartedly in all the sessions and therefore look forward to upcoming ones. Her one-to-one sessions really helped me identify how to approach my career development. I would like to attend more of her training sessions and would strongly recommend her.
We have been working with Julie for several months now and as a result I feel that my business is the strongest it has been, from a people perspective, for many years. With Julie’s advice, guidance and support, we now have a structured recruitment, selection and induction process. We have a clear, transparent reward strategy and we are now embarking on a new performance management process across all my teams to help develop employees and drive business growth. Julie is now a key part of my management team.
Having been out of the interview loop for over a decade, I enlisted Julie's help, support and advice in preparing for a presentation and interview for a Team Lead position at a leading forensics laboratory. I had never presented previously and was incredibly nervous – so much so, that it was affecting my sleep. Julie helped me to focus on the important and relevant points of why I was the most suitable candidate for the job. After her coaching sessions I stood in front of my interviewers and spoke with confidence and belief in myself and in my ability to take on the role. I finished my coaching sessions with Julie feeling amazing about myself, both professionally and personally! I would not hesitate to recommend Julie Leach Associates to friends and colleagues; thank you Julie - your help and advice was invaluable
Julie worked closely with us to design the content of the Personal Effectiveness Programme, so it was exactly what we needed for our team. It’s a five-module programme consisting of workshops to develop key skills that our emerging talent need to help them grow in their careers.
Since working with Gardenia, Julie has provided invaluable help and support to our team. We have worked together on a number of specific projects, including coaching and training for myself as General Manager. Through this training I have gained many new skills that I feel make a real difference to my work every single day. In particular, I feel I have a much better understanding of HR practices and procedures. Our work with Julie is leading to some very positive results for both the staff and the business as a whole
I have been coached by Julie for a number of months now and found our conversations relevant, useful and insightful. I’ve been able to reflect on my current performance in my role and use the techniques and frameworks provided by Julie to enhance my performance and increase my effectiveness. Julie is easy to talk to, listens well and asks questions that really make me think.
