Over the years that we have worked together we have achieved results that we most likely would not have attained without their help and definitely not in such a short, concise but still enjoyable time. Their knowledge of people and how to get the best out of them is very impressive and immediately wins the respect of the whole team which in my point of view is one of the reasons they are as successful as they are. If you ever want to know more about yourself and your team and how to make it work effectively I recommend that you take the time to talk to them'.

Ulrika Tegtmeier, Managing Director, Iomega Europe and Asia

'They have shown an uncanny ability to get to the heart of the issues and bring people together in a highly constructive fashion. They are astonishingly quick to grasp the issues because they have an almost instinctive understanding of our industry and our people. They hear things that others would miss and they bring about productive change with astonishing speed.

But more important than any of that is the fact that they're great people and every meeting with them is a pleasurable voyage of discovery.'

William Eccleshare, European Chairman, BBDO

'We recognised very early on the need to ensure that the new management team was genuinely a team and presented a united vision for the new agency so that we could capitalise on the energy created out of the merger and ensure continuing outstanding creative standards and new business success.

Max and Anna's contribution has been significant to our success this year.'

Chris Thomas, Chairman & CEO, BBDO Asia

'They show strong insight into human motivation and interaction and combine structural tools with less formal, bespoke individual coaching and analysis. Above all their work has a tremendous practical orientation and you feel there is a determination to help solve your problems rather than just sell consulting. Finally, in areas of sensitivity, were emotions can run high, they combine integrity with a good sense of humour. As a customer we are very satisfied.'

Simon Davies, CEO, Threadneedle Asset Management

'Anna rapidly got to grips with the all-important team dynamic and has helped us all look in the mirror. She has helped us appreciate people for their differences, as distinct from their strengths and weaknesses, unlocking additional rewards of team performance. The ingredients of her success with us lie in the sensitivity, professionalism and humour with which she has handled a team of driven and highly individual individuals and the fact that we have done it ourselves ... with her help.'

Paul Marson-Smith, Chief Executive, Gresham Trust

'There is no substitute for working with a quality team.'

Simon Rees, Chief Executive, MindShare

'A combination of personal coaching, team-building exercises and facilitation of potentially difficult discussions around organizational and strategic issues has helped us immeasurably to focus on the key issues and the implementation in key markets of our ambitious global plans.'

Ed Villani, President, Scudder Kemper Investments, New York

'They were able to help individuals recognise the impact of their approach on others and adjust their behaviour better to suit the situation and environment in a positive way. The results have been clear and visible to their colleagues.

On a group level, their help has enabled a new team to focus on results more quickly and with greater clarity, as well as identify those factors that may hamper team development and results.

At all levels I have found their assistance as supportive and not intrusive. They listen, adapt their approach to the organisation's needs and reflect our needs rather than a prescribed set of potential solutions.

They are also fun to have around!'

David Sachon, Managing Director, Threadneedle Investment Services Ltd.

'Today I am the President and CEO of an investment company in Japan. I am still applying the principles I learned from you.'

Joe D'Onofrio Prudential, Japan

'Thanks for all your help since the merger - you are the only independent witnesses to us setting 'Agency of the year' as an unpublished objective last January - never really believed we could pull it off - but we did'

Paul Hammersley, Chief Executive, Lowe Lintas

'SuperCoach did a lot of work in the early days of MindShare, helping us organise and set goals and get over the 'merger hump'. I rate them very highly.

Mandy Pooler, WPP

'We have just heard that the account group has won an award for the 'Most improved Account Group' in the agency. Specifically, cited were a 'creative renaissance' and an excellent collaborative working relationship with the clients. It is no coincidence that those were the two areas that we concentrated on during our two-day awayday session last May. I am writing to thank you, and say that this prize is also really yours, as you made a significant contribution in helping us believe that anything was possible, and that we could really achieve what we set out to do. You were an inspiration, and the results speak for themselves. I look forward to our next session in March.'

Jane Mathews, Director in Charge, J Walter Thompson

'It was a real pleasure to have you with us at The Compleat Angler at the end of last week. I thought you did an amazing job - you seemed to be part of us and yet, at the same time, bring an invaluable objectivity to our thinking. You gave us real focus and helped to pace the whole thing perfectly. I have no doubt that we couldn't have managed without you.'

Harry MacAuslan, Deputy Chairman, J. Walter Thompson

'There is no doubt that your involvement took our preparation and presentation to a new level'.

Brad Anger, Managing Director, Universal McCann, South Africa

'They have delivered in spades in elevating the sophistication of our new business process'.

David Warden, European Chairman, McCann Erikson

'Your expertise in winning business and understanding how clients buy was more insightful and helpful than we could ever have imagined'.

Damian Blackden, Joint Chief Executive, Universal McCann

Thank you for your astute and constructive off-site a couple of weeks back. I really do believe that some positive, constructive results will be achieved this year if we can all stay true to the commitments we made. Aside from everything else though, the two days were a laugh, so thanks, and let's do it again sometime.'

Derek Day, Creative Director, J.Walter Thompson

'Great seeing you today, Max. It was useful and I feel much better about things. You and Anna really are amazing at helping me understand myself and what I want'

Dennis de Yonker, Account Director, D'Arcy
