Angela held group dynamics well, stayed task-focused, and enabled honest sharing; the team felt safe and could truly see each other during the session. (Safeguarding Adults and MCA Specialist)

“Angela held the group dynamics and managed the personalities well. She was focussed on the task in hand and led the members of the group in their tasks.

Session was well paced with balanced breaks; I enjoyed the mint/chocolate exercise and reflecting on identity through protected characteristics - thank you for the skilled facilitation. (Named Professional for Safeguarding and Mental Capacity Act)

“For Angela, please may I share the following:

  • Session was well paced with evenly spaced breaks;
  • I enjoyed the mint/ chocolate exercise (and will be using this in my own team sessions as needed!)

Working with Angela through the NHS Leadership Academy Coaching Hub was transformative; from our first session I knew she was the right coach for my leadership journey. (General Manager (Division) Cellular Pathology)

“I had the privilege of working with Angela as a coach through the NHS Leadership Academy Coaching Hub, and the impact she’s had on my development as a senior leader has been nothing short of transformative. When I first signed up for coaching, I reached out to several coaches, but fate led me to be paired with Angela, and from our very first session, I knew I had found the right coach. What truly stood out was the connection we built, especially as we both share Jamaican heritage. This cultural link made our relationship feel even more engaging and meaningful. We began our work by exploring my core values as a leader and how they influence the kind of leader I strive to be. Angela didn’t just guide me through theoretical concepts, she challenged me to be brave and fully embrace who I am, regardless of the environment I find myself in. She empowered me to recognise my worth, reminding me to stay true to myself and never try to change who I truly am to fit into different spaces. One of Angela’s most impressive qualities is her ability to help you self-reflect and arrive at your own solutions. There were countless moments where I’d find myself thinking, “What would Angela do in this situation?” or “What would she say?” Her straightforward/straight-talking approach pushed me to reflect deeply on things I would often overlook. Throughout our sessions, Angela consistently brought my values back into focus, reminding me that they are the golden thread weaving everything together. Now, a year later, as my coaching sessions have come to an end, I am proud to have stepped into a new senior leadership role. I feel empowered, confident, and ready to face the new challenges ahead, all thanks to Angela’s guidance and support. I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone looking to develop as a leader. ” (General Manager (Division) Cellular Pathology

A very good coach—she guided me to look within, identify core issues, and reflect objectively; her approach helps my personal and professional mindset improve. (Recruitment Assistant)

“She is a very good coach. She gently guided me to look within to identify the core of what I brought to the table for discussion which I appreciated. I like her approach and style. She continues to gently challenge me to reflect objectively to improve my personal and professional mindset. I recognise that this is the approach and style I need now to move forward in life. She continues to gently challenge me to be and do better which I really appreciate. I’ve already began to gradually adapt to align with the outcomes of our sessions. Angela is great—always willing to challenge my assumptions and remind me of my strengths.” (Recruitment Assistant)

Having been coached before, I feel I was lucky with Angela—now I sometimes hear her questions in my head, especially when I’m making an excuse. (Speech and Language Therapy Clinical Lead and Professsional Lead - Children)

Some mentioned your energy and humour in a conversation which could be seen as dark and worrying. (Director of Therapies)

“Hi Angela, after you left and we summed up the day, general feedback was “exceeded my expectations”. So overall participants were very pleased.  I think the issue of “feedback early, set expectations, don’t leave things to get worse and do ‘gotcha’ moves” landed very well. The chance to talk and say out loud what was worrying them, also liked.  Some mentioned your energy and humour in a conversation which could be seen as dark and worrying”. (Director of Therapies)
