I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Authority (SFHEA) and have worked at some of the UK's top Russell Group universities. My work has evolved from Senior Lecturer and Researcher to Course Writer, Course Director and Academic Coach for PhD students and staff at the University of Loughborough in London Business School and Nottingham Trent University Business School. After gaining formal accreditation with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council as a Senior Coach with the Institute of Leadership and Management, I established Fiona Wilson Coaching© and have had the privilege of working with some of the UK and US' Chief Executives and leadership teams in Coop, LinkedIn, Godiva and Jeldwen; some of whom have kindly shared their experiences below:
My exceptional clients receive transformational coaching
"Thanks ever so much for the support and coaching you've provided over the last few months. I know they have valued your expertise, challenge and support.
You’ve certainly made an impact and I can see the change. They have really grown into their Executive roles, over the last few months."
"My overall experience has been absolutely fantastic.
Fiona has been able to structure her approach in a way that takes the formality out of the process, and I have a tendency to forget it’s actually a coaching session.
This has helped no end as it has broken down any barrier or uncomfortable feelings and has helped me share without holding back."
"Very open, friendly but at the same time, thought-provoking.
Questions have helped find paths to solutions and some questions challenged internal emotion.
My goals of working to be a more rounded leader are working"
"Fiona was the most empathic and "good vibe" coach session I have ever had... Very delicate and respectful in her feedbacks when needed and very supportive in helping out me to take some different perspectives in my current context. I believe most of the goals have been achieved or are in progress."
"Thank you, Fiona, your coaching has made such a difference to me. "
Cerell and I had a session at a difficult point in her career, where we looked at the dynamics of fear-based behaviours in the workplace. As a result, it helped Cerell to progress upwards and out of that situation to a better and more fulfilling role.
"Fiona recently supported me with coaching to prepare for an interview. Due to personal circumstances, I had to pause my career - caring for my mum had become too much. The session with Fiona helped rebuild confidence in my ability and my experience. It helped me to value and respect myself. I would absolutely do it again."
"The coaching most certainly did help me. It was interesting to realise that all of my weaknesses in my current situation were all external factors. It helped me look at things in a new way, and gave me clarity.
After the session I realised that my current situation is changeable.
The coaching certainly did give me clarity. I know that my plans moving forward are very much for my own mental wellness, alongside my future progression.
Without a doubt would do this again in times of concern or personal doubt.
I love Fi - the miracle mind worker."
"I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was totally surprised at just how much I got from one session.
You are soooo good. You were able to understand from the different perspective, whilst reading my body language but also being able to help give me resolutions. I’ve started the glow manual and feel that has helped give me clarity and direction but also I feel like I have regained a power in myself from the coaching session. I would love to do another one. Thank you so much clever you "
"Overall, I found the experience thoroughly rewarding. I enjoyed the way you presented the questions as they inspired me to discover my own deeper feelings for my future. Your questions were insightful and challenged me to look inward. I was left with a feeling of calm that I had come to a considered decision that aligned with both challenging myself and focusing on where I felt most positive and fulfilled.
Thank you so much for the hour and a half, it was amazing to be coached by you."
"Thank you sooooooo much for yesterday, I can’t tell you how helpful it was, it’s given me loads to reflect on! You are amazing, you really are! You have such a strong and beautiful faith, so in tune to his prompts when he speaks to you."
