Testimonials
Marcus took me through a series of executive coaching sessions in the first half of 2012. The growth that I have gone through as a result has been more valuable than the sum of all the learning and development in my career to date. Marcus has a unique way of very quickly drawing out your key strengths and weaknesses and designing steps to address them. His style is incredibly engaging and therefore his coaching sessions are always interesting and enjoyable. Having benefitted personally from Marcus's coaching, I hired him to take my team through some group coaching, again with excellent results. I'd thoroughly recommend Marcus and would be happy to talk to anyone who would like to take a reference before engaging him.
Steve Hunt: Head of Resourcing at Thales
I have worked with Marcus Tofts for many years both in his role of HR Business Partner in Unilever and again when he became a Consultant.
As a consultant, Marcus has conducted team building events for me. He has a creative approach to team building interventions, using a wide variety of tools, techniques and business acumen to ensure the desired outcome is achieved.
With a good understanding of people, he has a flexible and adaptable style which coupled with well developed intuition, allows him to read a situation and then encourage, steer or divert conversations. This ensures a safe environment which enables attendees to confidently participate.
I have every confidence in Marcus’s abilities and would be happy to recommend him without hesitation.
Matt Burgess Brand Director Personal Care Unilever
Marcus and I struck a coaching relationship in early 2011 following some events at work. Marcus and I have worked closely on my goals and approach to many problems, and he has tirelessly helped me through to being much more confident, and self aware. Marcus' approach is easy, whilst being hard at times. His attention to detail is amazing. We recently reviewed "where I was" vs "where I am now" and transformed is the best adjective I can use. I can’t recommend Marcus' coaching style and effectiveness enough
Darren Learmonth Technical Director Thales
I can hardly believe that it's only 6 weeks since Marcus began coaching me.
In such a short space of time he's transformed my approach and attitude in such a dynamic way that I can barely keep up with developments.
Always interested, encouraging and bringing out the best in you, he helps adapt your thinking and equips you with massive self-belief, to the extent that nothing seems out of reach.
I can't recommend his coaching style enough. Using a mixture of encouragement and accountability with a calm, reassuring manner, he is an incredible enabler and very knowledgeable about all aspects of business.
Thanks for all you've done Marcus, you're a real inspiration!
