Arla Foods

“Lynn’s open, honest and encouraging style made me achieve changes in my personal style and behaviour in ways I hadn’t considered possible before.”

Executive Director

Leader Development

Bauer Media

“I was awarded ‘Leader of the Year’ at the Bauer Advertising Awards, and my team also won ‘Creative Team of the Year.”

Dan Jennings

Group Head of Production

Leader Development

The Drill Company

“On a personal level, Lynn continues to challenge me and make me go to places I wouldn’t normally want (or dare) to go. Her ‘hunch’ is almost magical in how quickly she pinpoints what’s really going on! She also provides the feedback, challenge and accountability that others don’t or are afraid to offer when in a leadership position or running a business.”

Susie Burdekin

Director

Leader Development

“My 360 and the sessions with you had a big impact, particularly in making me more sensitive to how members of my team felt about working with me and about my expectations of them (and my patience!) and these are things that I’ve worked on a lot. Thanks for supporting me to be better.”

Alison Blenkinsopp OBE

Leader Development

Bauer Media

“Lynn taught us some great techniques about understanding and changing behaviour and this has been incredibly useful both professionally and personally and is something that will stay with me forever.”

Joy Atkin

Citizens Advice Manchester

“One year on and I can confidently say we have resolved our deep-rooted problems; we’re collectively more positive, more relaxed, more honest and more productive.”

“What I really enjoy about working with Lynn is her ability to challenge whilst being supportive. Lynn’s vast experience and knowledge has enabled me to develop my individual 1:1 coaching practice. She has also helped me to build my confidence greatly when coaching teams. I highly recommend Lynn to others who are looking for a supervisor who can help you pay attention to your coaching clients’ needs and at the same time, your own professional development.”

Dr Claire Harris

Chartered Occupational Psychologist

Signature Programme – Lead with Impact

“The Lead with Impact programme with Lynn Scott has been one of the most effective and enjoyable leadership courses I have been on.”

Professor Julian Chaudhuri

Signature Programme – Lead with Impact

“I’ve done several presentations where I have slowed down my delivery, highlighted the telegram words and I have been short and concise. I’ve received useful feedback that people have been able to understand the key messages and welcome a presentation without PowerPoint, being able to focus directly on what I was saying rather than staring at a screen.”

Haydn Hansford

Signature Programme – Lead with Impact

“If you are thinking about enrolling on the program, think no more. The Lead with Impact program has been the most effective I have participated in. I thoroughly enjoyed the group work and interaction and these were most effectively facilitated by Lynn and her colleagues.”

Tamara Gillan

Trish Patterson

Awaiss Mirza

Signature Programme – Lead with Impact

New Charter

“Throughout the engaging programme, we worked through our individual challenges and were able to get ‘in the moment’ feedback that will stay with us for a long time. I would thoroughly recommend Lynn’s programme to any leaders wanting to work on their personal gravitas and impact.”

Jane Atherton

Signature Programme – Lead with Impact

“I wanted to send you an update on what has been a significant week. Based on our last conversation and on reading your weekly blog posts I’ve been preparing for the conversation we spoke about and thinking hard about what I want the team to focus on during our forthcoming away day.

I made the focus of the conversation ‘how can we work better together?’ and that opened up a wide-ranging, honest and hugely constructive conversation. We’ve now got a clear agreement on tasks he can take off my plate and have autonomy over. This allows me more time to focus on the overall management of the team and strategy development and gives him a challenging project and autonomy. I think we both finished that meeting feeling supported, clear and confident on the way forward.

I’m working to prepare our team away day which, in light of your advice, is going to focus on how we work together rather than what we work on. I’m also dedicating 1 of our existing team meetings per season for us to review this moving forward and set up 2 creative planning meetings per season to encourage collaborative working across the team and mutual support/idea sharing.

Finally, I met with our Chief Executive yesterday. This was the second meeting since my Lead with Impact training and she organised it to ask me if I would like a year’s worth of mentoring with her meeting on a 6-8 weekly basis. I’m gobsmacked! Of course I said yes!

I wanted to update you because all of this progress is because of the Lead with Impact course and the opportunity it gave me to think, to be challenged and to see different approaches. So thank you.”

Gillian Sherwood

Holly Burdall

Group Commercial Manager

Leader Development

Bauer Media

“Some of our leaders have been promoted, they’re generating more revenue, developing and motivating their own people and focusing much more on the important rather than the urgent.

Feedback from the delegates and their managers has been extremely positive. Lynn has a great ability to help leaders step up, take action and become more confident in their leadership roles – our leaders are diverse but she ensured everyone got the support and challenge they needed in very practical ways. Our leaders were talking about this course it created a real buzz around the Bauer Media offices. I would have no hesitation in working with Lynn again and highly recommend her to others.”
