Start Making A Difference has given me a greater understanding of my colleagues and asks questions that my colleagues never seem to. I believe there is always room for improvement, but finding an executive coach who truly believes and practices the same is a breath of fresh air.

Working with Sarah has been a revelation. She has helped me to achieve clarity during a period of considerable change in both my own role and the financial markets in general. Our sessions have always been open, honest and productive. I always leave feeling that real progress has been made.
-
Sarah is always professional, reliable and, at times, uncomfortably insightful, but never judgmental. The process has helped me to determine and focus on the priorities for the business and develop strategies for achieving our objectives. You do have to engage in the process to get the maximum return back, but doing so produces measurable results. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sarah to colleagues or fellow professionals.

I can highly recommend Sarah's thorough, insightful and individually tailored approach to performance coaching. She makes full use of her own extensive real-world business and life experience to help others to focus on their strengths and acquire the additional skills needed to achieve their goals. Her penetrating but sympathetic questioning style is not always a comfortable experience, but it is an essential and most effective part of the process.

Working with Start Making A Difference helped me re-evaluate my strengths and weaknesses in a period of transition. It greatly assisted in helping me re-think my experience to construct a CV that could be applied outside the law in other contexts, and to focus on what potential new employers are looking for.
-
Working with Sarah was often challenging but always encouraging. She is a coach who focuses on moving people on through clear, structured, meaningful tasks, but she is also supportive in helping clients to reach the outcomes best suited to their personal and professional outlook. I would be very happy to recommend working with Sarah to former colleagues and future employers.
