Director Fundraising and CommunicationS, Mental Health Foundation

During Covid my team had nearly doubled. We were coming back into new office spaces and had not worked face-to-face for over 18 months. I wanted to find a way to re-connect.

Following a number of in-depth discussions with Amy, we chose to use the FIRO-B psychometric tool. This provided a cost-effective and engaging approach to understanding team dynamics, helping people recognise where they may be giving out mixed messages and how this could be affecting their relationships with colleagues.

With Amy’s expert support and facilitation we were able to run a whole Directorate session, as well as one more tailored to how Leadership could use the learnings across their teams. I think all of us learnt something about how we may be seen by others that could improve working relationships.

Talent & Development Manager, Marie Curie​

Amy is an extremely skilled action learning facilitator, and has worked with us on our core management development programme.

Due to the pandemic, we had to rapidly adjust what had been a face to face programme to a purely online one and like all of us Amy had to quickly adapt her practice to virtual facilitation at the same time as getting to grips with unfamiliar technology. We were able to continue to offer high quality support to managers through action learning just when they needed it the most.

Feedback has been very positive so much so that we are continuing to facilitate virtual sets. Thanks Amy for your expertise and advice in helping us to make the move to virtual.
