We’ve found that our way of working is particularly suited to engineering, manufacturing and scientific companies. However, we’ve also worked with a ballet company, social enterprises, professional services organisation, so we are very portable.
I loved working with Anne. She diagnosed and named the heart of my issues within 60 minutes of our first meeting together. It was wonderful and slightly terrifying – no place to hide! Sessions with her were always clarifying. She was often able to help me completely shift my perspective by asking just one simple question. Although we only worked together for a few months, I can say without a doubt that Anne has helped me take my first steps on the path I need to be on in order to become the kind of leader I want to be.

Anne Owen is one of the top organizational and leadership development consultants I have had the pleasure to work with in my 35 years at Ford. Anne brings a keen understanding of leadership development design and is expert in group dynamics. She has a strong knowledge of organization development and street smarts about the business. I especially appreciate how she pushes all interventions to move the business beyond what it is doing today. She is straight forward in her communications and interfaces very well with senior leaders right down to shop floor people. Her energy is amazing, she has a great sense of humor, and the practicality and charm of her native country – Wales. She is an excellent coach and has helped me to improve in both my personal and professional life. Simply put, Anne brings great value to her clients.

As a result of the coaching I have been able to change my management style. I now have a less threatening style that encourages more dialogue and empowerment. My team enjoy working with me in this environment.
Anne is challenging (in a positive way) helpful, genuine.
I would recommend Anne to other executives / engineers who are also looking to modify their management style.

I left the facilitation skills workshop with a new found sense of self and confidence to be true to who I am. Anne used an approach which put me at the heart of my learning. Yes, I came away with new tools and techniques to use when facilitating but that was just the surface. Anne was attentive, caring, and personally invested in guiding me through my journey of self-discovery, helping me to identify what it is I bring to facilitation. She created an environment which was safe, allowing challenge and stretch to benefit the group. Without sounding over dramatic, that week certainly helped me change gears!

It was such a pleasure to meet with you, not only because it was a very revitalizing experience but as well and most important because it was a ‘human’ experience thanks to your insight, sense of humour and incomparable human touch.
