Our Clients Say:

  • The benefits I have gained from only a few sessions have far exceeded my expectations and helped me enormously, not only to carry out my role more effectively, but also to improve my approach to my life in general and I would unreservedly recommend the coach I had to anyone.

    AL, Public Sector (Health)

  • A great mix of commercial, organisational and inter-personal experience…thoroughly recommended.

    RB, Legal Sector

  • Exceptional coaching.

    RS, Publishing

  • ​​I particularly feel that my ability to prioritise, focus on the things that mattered in managing my time and the numerous other small hints and tips you gave me beyond just this was so helpful and I haven’t forgotten the many things you said to me during our sessions... the things you discussed with me during the coaching I felt played a huge part in helping me to be successful in my role and helping to secure that promotion.

    MT, Charity Sector

  • If you are seeking [executive coaching] to support you or your staff through challenging changes - or simply to develop personal talent - look no further.

    KH, Telecoms

  • We found Managing Change’s development programme really helpful in bringing together the expectations of individuals with their department managers... We now plan to incorporate the programme into our career development process.

    DS, Legal Sector

  • Helped me achieve the impossible, helping to move me outside my comfort zone in a controlled and measurable manner.

    CP, Technology

  • The sessions I had were extremely useful and helped me achieve a much-needed level of clarity in terms of my own value and the kind of role I should be looking for.

    AW, Publishing

  • Highly recommended.

    CH, Biotech

  • Managing Change helped me in a very supportive way to rethink what I really wanted out of my career. They helped me identify qualities and transferable skills that I didn’t realise I had, opening up new opportunities. A really valuable experience and I would recommend Managing Change to anyone.

    CM, Retail

  • The benefits resulting from Sarah Jaggers’ 1:1 coaching work with South Norfolk Council were clear and we would have no hesitation in recommending Sarah and Managing Change to anyone who wants to get the most out of their individuals. Sarah’s approach really helped staff embrace and lead change in the workplace and also helped staff on a personal level.

    SD, Local Government

  • I've worked with Sarah twice over the past 4 years and she's been fantastic both times. She got me out of my comfort zone and really helped me to open up and make me realise what I need to do in order to develop my goals. I always had complete trust and confidence with Sarah - I'd always recommend her as a coach.

    AW, Publishing

  • It was an absolute pleasure working with Sarah and a valuable use of my time. I really appreciated her clear, practical and astute perspective on my job situations. She sensitively guided me through difficult situations, advising me on potential strategies and enabling me to view issues through different lens. I achieved my goals and will continue to use the strategies we developed in future situations.

    SR, Academia

  • Sarah has helped me improve my confidence on my return to work after a period of long-term absence. Sarah really listened to me and showed empathy. I would definitely recommend coaching to others.

    BB, Law

  • The most amazing experience. I’ve had the best time throughout my coaching experience which supported very much professional development. I am in a better place with the extra encouragement and thought-provoking discussions! Thank you Sarah. Sarah has been the best from the outset. Translating the first discussion with my line manager into 3 simple personal objectives. A great ear and full of great advice, making you stop and think and providing a different viewpoint, challenging you to make your own changes. My confidence has bloomed.

    EE, Property

  • Lesley helped me to exteriorize, put into words feelings and thoughts I probably had already inside me, but not able to clearly express and " put them in order ". She helped me focus on what really matters to me.

    EF, Publishing

  • I found it very helpful to have the time to talk through what I wanted to achieve from the post-maternity leave RTW, particularly as I came back into a role that was new to me and new to the business. Annabel is a great coach, I led the sessions but she helped frame them with leading questions and she got me thinking about things from a different angle.

    KP, Media

  • “I have already recommended Sarah to a colleague. She is warm, thoughtful, supportive, challenging and experienced. I felt very comfortable being my authentic self.”

    AD, L&D Business Partner, Insurance
