"Martin continues to be one of the most influential leader and coach for me over the last 5 years. At the core, Martin is an empathetic, authentic, disciplined and achievement focused human being. He is a born leader who is always in the pursuit of self-improvement and care for others. He is an active listener who has an uncanny ability to ask critical questions / raise constructive challenges which result in better business and professional development decisions.

He draws upon decades of senior executive experience, across the globe, to help coach and mentor people across different experience levels with one objective in mind - to push their limits and expand into your potential."

Testimonials

"Martin is an amazing career mentor and someone who has had an immeasurable impact on my career. Martin was my manager during one of the tougher periods in my career and helped me navigate many challenging situations by helping broaden my lens to understand viewpoints I hadn’t considered.
‍
Martin has spent 40+ years in Financial Services with multi-nationals and has such a treasure trove of experiences to pull from in helping others with their own careers. I find Martin to offer a fresh approach to coaching in that his career advice is pitched to all types of people - whether senior executives, middle management, or those earlier in their careers.
‍
Every time we meet up, Martin remembers our last conversation and asks how my family is doing which I appreciate as it shows he cares about the whole person - not just their career. I feel very fortunate to have worked for Martin as I use many of the leadership techniques he’s taught me over the years."

Testimonials

"Martin coached me through a promotion into a leadership role.This new role came with leading 8 direct reports. Martin helped me work through deciding what style of leader I wanted to be, managing up, situational leadership, and handling difficult conversations. I consider the coaching Martin provided me as pivotal to being successful in my new role, as well as future roles, and would be happy to recommend his coaching to anyone looking to improve.

Martin has a great awareness on timing, knowing when to introduce a new lesson which is often through a story of personal experience. Looking forward to seeing how many more professionals Martin will help succeed in achieving their career goals"

Testimonials

"Martin has been my long term career coach / mentor since initially meeting when I interned in his team over University summer break. In this time Martin has been a consistent supporter of my career, through all the ups and downs. Together we have worked our way through 3 promotions an industry change and a relocation interstate.

Martin always makes time to discuss blockers and concerns, providing invaluable advice through his experience. As I have grown and needs changed, Martin's coaching style has evolved, whilst still instilling confidence in my abilities and encouraging me to reach higher!

Given the seniority of Martin, it has always surprised me how accessible he is, a skill in which he always brings his whole self to our meetings and makes me feel my issues are the most important. I would highly recommend Martin more as a career coach and feel very lucky to have him in my corner."
