The Impact of Our Work

Trust is the foundation of all good relationships and Confidentiality plays a key role in that trust so I will only provide the home country of the individual who provided the feedback. I have worked globally with individuals, teams and small to large multi-national companies across 8 industries. Full references are available upon request!

Cultural Intelligence Workshops

“These CQ workshops are an eye opener. With the world getting smaller, we are more exposed to other cultures. We don’t all think alike or react in the same way; understanding these differences, not feeling threatened by them, paves the way to smoother relationships both in the working place and socially.” (Canada)

“Though we represent many cultural types, I think we can understand and relate better as a result of the CQ program.  I also wish I could have taken this course many years ago. It would have been extremely helpful professionally. Anne, you are superb at what you do, taking a group who don’t know each other well and helping them collaborate on so many cultural issues. You have my deepest respect and admiration.” (USA)

“Thanks Anne, for a wonderful series of workshops, I very much enjoyed them and your inclusive and supportive approach throughout encouraged and facilitated incredible openness. The openness and awareness among the participants hugely enriched the experience and gave us a wonderful chance to get to know one another – albeit online! “(Ireland)

“I’d love to have done this workshop decades ago, it’d have provided important insight with work and personal interactions.  Nonetheless, it is very relevant now with so much global interaction – and anything that encourages and supports positive relations and understanding between cultures, has to be a priority.” (Ireland)

“I was flabbergasted at how open we have been with each other sharing our experiences and thoughts about the ten cultural values!” (The Netherlands)

“Another wonderful session. Understanding differences helps us grow and broadens our horizons. Thanks for helping me in this path of growth and self-discovery.” (India)

“I need to dearly thank you for the amazing opportunity to discover what cultural intelligence is about. I loved it. I think that the capability to relate effectively across cultures is a very valuable skill to have today and this workshop gave me a very good start impression of what it is all about.” (Italy)

Individual CQ Work with Executives

“As someone working with multinational teams in global companies, particularly in meeting facilitation where I help teams to make strategic decisions, I derived a lot from my CQ report, some of it confirmatory and much surprising, and all of it extremely helpful in raising my awareness and insights into how to get the most out of culturally diverse interactions. Being able to strategize before going into these situations has been tremendously helpful in ensuring the teams I work with can work together in the most effective way.” (United Kingdom)

“We all agree diverse teams will bring better results and the more diverse we become, the more we need to understand and deal with cross-cultural differences. The CQ work done by Anne gives us a clear picture of where we stand regarding cultural differences individually and as a team. We can then work together to create the right actions that will truly leverage these valuable cultural differences.” (Brazil)

Executive & Business Coaching

“I found that Anne was very knowledgeable and easy to speak to. I would say that I’m not somebody that would open up and talk to people but I found this very easy with Anne. This helped to get down to what truly matters to me and what I value in my work.” 

“Anne is a terrific and very talented coach who has inspired me and given me the confidence to deal with tasks as they have arisen. Anne posed some very interesting questions to me at every session that made me look inwards and in turn built up my self-reliance, which I believe is an amazing gift she has!”

“Anne has a great ability to listen and pose some very insightful questions that enabled me to be very engaged and to feel a real sense of 'ownership' to solutions that I was seeking.  I am so grateful that I had Anne as my coach during a very challenging year, she has been a rock of sense and a voice of reason during some very difficult moments and for that she has my absolute gratitude.”

“Anne, Your honest replies and understanding of my issues were paramount to my progressing further in my thinking and actions. It was good that I was challenged in my thinking and encouraged to undertake the tough route to a resolution rather than the easy one! I appreciate your listening ear and your encouragement for what I do.” 

“The coaching came at a perfect time in my career and honestly, I sometimes hear Anne’s voice in my head when I find myself questioning my ability or overthinking things. Thank you for helping me to feel more confident in myself Anne, you're a great coach!”

“Anne, Your support this year has been of great assistance and provoked me to reflect on both my professional and personal life. This positive experience has meant that I intend to continue that journey of self-reflection and self-evaluation on an ongoing basis supported through coaching and counselling and have already put arrangements in place. I always enjoyed our sessions as they provoked me to think and gave me a safe space to consider my path. You have a great gift and I feel very lucky to have worked with you this year.”
