By mid-2014, myself and my two fellow Directors were struggling to cope with our workload and at the same time grow our business. We started working with John Cottrell in October 2014. Since then John has been instrumental in helping Terrain Surveys create a company structure and ethos that has now put us in a great position to push on and grow the business.

We have been able to pass on a lot of the day-to-day responsibilities to a newly created senior management level, allowing us to concentrate on working ON the business. As Directors, we have more time and our employees have thrived with their additional responsibilities.

Client perspective

I have been coached personally by John and experienced first-hand his coaching skills with clients at all levels from Chief Executive to Line Manager in organisations big and small. He is a charismatic and visionary thinker who can quickly analyse a business situation and then work with individuals or teams to develop effective solutions and action plans that are really owned. He is very tuned into a team’s dynamics and assesses individuals’ strengths and weaknesses. As a consequence, resources are realigned effectively to achieve business goals more quickly. I have no hesitation in recommending John as someone who can really get the best out of an individual, team, or business.

Client perspective

John’s knowledge, advice and input into our business have had a huge impact. Not only has his support, advice and wise counsel really had an impact on us as individuals, but it has also made us stand back and take a good, hard look at our business and identify areas on which to build. I would have no hesitation in recommending John as a person who will have an extremely positive effect on both you and your business.
