‘I am thankful to Romi, who coached me out of a crisis of professional confidence in my career journey.  Romi’s skillful approach, supports me to address my emotional, intellectual and experiential responses to challenges.  Romi has equipped me to be more self -aware and resourceful; she provides safe space to explore issues and concerns as they arise, to rehearse approaches and visualise outcomes.  Romi’s insights, knowledge and enthusiasm inspire focus and determination.

 

DIRECTOR OF CHILDREN'S SERVICES, BOROUGH COUNCIL

I have worked with Romi for over ten years and continue to find her insight and astuteness immensely valuable. Since starting to work with Romi I have moved into increasingly senior leadership roles and now as a Chief Executive I find the need to carve out space for my learning and development both harder and more important. Romi is brilliant at helping me focus on the right things at the right time and exploring solutions to tricky and demanding challenges. I appreciate her direct, person-centred approach and have benefitted (and continue to benefit) hugely from her expertise, wisdom and support.

CHIEF EXCUTIVE,

NATIONAL CHARITY

‘Your insight and support was invaluable in helping me, not only deal effectively with acting up in a challenging work environment that could have pulled me under, but also to refocus and revalidate my values and strengths, allowing me to move on with renewed cconfidence.  Thank you “

 

ACTING CHIEF EXECUTIVE, CITY COUNCIL

‘You helped me to grow in confidence and provided a positive catalyst for change. You are a great listener able to get underneath the issues without being judgmental’

​

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, RESOURCES, LONDON BOROUGH

‘Since working with Romi I have been able to explore my career and gain promotion.  However, this said the strength of my work with Romi has been the time spent understanding myself as a leader and the dichotomous relationship this can have between values and delivery.  This work has been incredibly empowering and has taken me to a place where I am able to explore and reflect on issues or challenges in the moment finding solutions that feel authentic and meaningful to the work undertaken.  More importantly, as I am a neurodiverse leader Romi brings extensive knowledge of the neurodiverse community and how I can use this in my work as a strength as opposed to a being a challenge.  In our 1-1 sessions Romi recognises the bigger picture and encourages me to understand myself in my personal and professional contexts using mindful tools and practical approaches that I can apply outside the session.  Romi will get to know you and your interests and tailor everything from how to achieve your goals down to the nuances of an analogy the reflects you as a person – e.g. I find calm in water, and I sail so a lot of our thoughts and time analogies are related to sea and water.  The final point is the single most important of having a space that is individual and safe in which to explore the big and small issues with equal importance, but one that challenges and pushes my thinking in a place that we share.’

​SENIOR LEADER, YOUTH AND COMMUNITY SERVICE, CITY COUNCIL

Romi has been coaching me as I embark on my journey as Director of Public Health. The sessions are deeply reflective and developmental, using recent real world leadership challenges as the basis for learning.

We have explored authority with compassion, delegation with clarity & focus, influence across various levels and organisations, system leadership for impact, people and change management, deep listening and having diMicult conversations.

It has helped me better understand myself and my leadership behaviours within the context of significant system pressure, including NHS reorganisation, LGR uncertainty and significant changes within the team.

DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC HEALTH,

UNITARY AUTHORITY

Romi was an exceptional executive leader and is now a phenomenal coach. Working with Romi has been genuinely transformative. She listens with intention, asks powerful questions that matter, and helps you see possibilities and options you hadn’t yet recognised.

​

Romi brings a unique combination of her experience, strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and practical tools that contribute with generosity to your own leadership and personal life journey. She weaves her leadership practice with coaching, therapeutic and somatic insights that combine sharp insight, supportive challenge, and genuine care. She creates a space where you can think beyond the context, see yourself clearly, and move forward with confidence.

Romi’s coaching is steeped in generosity and is grounded in humanity, social justice and equity. She creates the conditions for deep reflection and enables you to take confident action.

 

Through her coaching, I’ve gained deeper self‑awareness, and her support has strengthened my leadership, my resilience, and my ability to navigate complexity. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone seeking a journey of meaningful growth. She is a rare talent and a joy to work with.

 

DIRECTOR OF CHILDREN'S SERVICES, BOROUGH COUNCIL

‘You held up a mirror to me in such a powerful way that let me see both my strength and my sharp edges in a clear, uncluttered way. When I reached out to you I could never have imagined the depth and impact of our work together’

​

STRATEGIC LEAD , CHILDREN’S SERVICES, CITY COUNCIL

‘You had such a huge impact on me you helped me realise that some of the qualities and strategies in my toolbox might not be the best way to manage all situations’

​

HEAD OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, UNITARY

Having been a client of Romi's for a few years, I’ve really appreciated how our coaching dynamic has evolved over time alongside my career. She has guided me through several work transitions, accelerating my development as a leader and giving me the confidence to engage eMectively with both peers and senior executives. Romi is an exceptional listener who challenges me to think differently, providing practical strategies that I apply daily getting great results!!!

​

GLOBAL BRAND AND MARKETING LEADER

‘Romi grasped my skillset and style and the shape and size of the issues I was dealing with impressively and with the proficiency that can only come from significant experience.  She did this with what felt to me like gracious and easy understanding of human behaviour and mine in particular!  Coaching with Romi has strengthened my confidence in my knowledge and ability.  I’m more authentic as a leader and more sure of myself as a professional.  Importantly I’ve developed my sense of ‘boundary’ and ‘edges’ of what’s mine to influence and when to be bold about what I think is needed in the services I lead and work in.

Romi has range and authority, compassion and humility, steeped in profound good sense and a manner that makes complicated ideas straightforward.’

 

SENIOR LEADER, MINISTRY OF JUSTICE

'Working with Romi over the past year has been transformational for me, professionally and personally. She has encouraged me to become more curious, reflective and confident, to be clearer about my role as a leader and to be braver in holding my space, but also to know when to let go. Romi doesn't just focus on work issues, she's genuinely interested in all aspects of a client's life, and has helped me to understand how my thoughts, feelings and reactions at work can be learned behaviour from the past. I can't recommend Romi highly enough.'

DIRECTOR, NATIONAL CHARITY
