Testimonials

Real People, Real Testimonials!

Mark is an excellent communicator and a fantastic coach and mentor. He is a people person with an emphatic approach, a listening ear, and an honest friendly way about him such that he is not intrusive, and one feels like sharing. He wants to help and that comes across in his manner and method. He has helped me to build resilience and be more self-confident and also to reflect, deal with the negatives, focus on the positives, and think more creatively in my approach. Mark has given me the tools to help me reach my full potential both personally and professionally and, on that basis, I would have no hesitation in recommending ‘Create the Great in You.

I recently had the opportunity to be coached by Mark, I really appreciated the wonderful safe and non-judgmental space that he created during our sessions. His sincere, positive approach and caring nature along with appropriate levels of challenge created the perfect environment for me to explore some issues. Mark facilitated me in recognising limitations I had imposed upon myself and to identify solutions to my challenges. I was extremely happy with my outcomes.

"Create the Great in You has enabled our students to develop a creative independent approach to life. The time spent with Mark and the team has been a highlight of our TY year. Through mediums the students can relate to; such as rap and performing arts, they have flourished in finding a sense of self. The opportunity to express themselves and listen to others has helped develop their bond as a group. Create the Great in You is a positive, interactive, reflective initiative and very worthwhile."
