TESTIMONIALS

David not only rose to our executive search challenge admirably, he also helped us to attract and secure an outstanding candidate to be the Chair of our organisation. In the process he demonstrated his strategic thinking, empathy, ability to master complexity, as well as handling all the practicalities of recruiting at speed.
Chair of Nominations Committee, Leading Profesional Organisation
As a potential candidate, I found David and his team to be professional and personable throughout the process.
Many recruitment consultants make promises they quickly forget but that was not the case with David. He is a credit to his industry.
A pleasure to work with and highly recommended!


Candidate
David’s coaching has been invaluable for me. Having recently been given a new role with greater responsibility, under his tutelage I gained the confidence to prioritise time spent on doing what *I* need to do to function at my most effective. His non-directive but reflective approach guided me to this realization and supported me to creatively find ways to embed the behaviors. Thank you David!
Executive Coaching Client
David’s clarity of thought and open style is extremely effective in providing the right environment to identify entrenched behaviors and strategies for changing them. The high scores are entirely deserved, in many areas I do not feel there was anything more that could be done.
Executive Coaching Client
It is very, very rare that I offer an endorsement. But I will be honest that David, in response to some very detailed asks, produced focused, relevant, achievable recommendations. It was a delight not just to be given the usual stable of individuals, but to have some real thought behind what I wanted.
Executive Search Client
I have known David for several years and have found him always to be very professional and extremely thorough in his approach, with excellent attention to detail. He is well connected and combines good knowledge of the market with strong research capabilities, as well as being discreet and highly personable. It has been a pleasure to know and work with him.
Executive Search Client
David is a thorough, tenacious, meticulous and inspired recruitment specialist. He gets to know his clients and the needs of the organization and maps that against his excellent set of contacts and research. He follows through with both client and candidate. David is very personable and works well with everyone.
Executive Search Client
David has always proved himself one of the most competent, knowledgeable and professional practitioners in his field. He has sourced a number of excellent executives for our business and I would have absolutely no hesitation at all in recommending him.

Right from the start of our search project David demonstrated enthusiasm to really understand our organisation and the requirements of the role. He tested and challenged the brief and made sure he was clear before accepting the assignment.
David remained personally engaged throughout and demonstrated flexibility and openness at all times. The outcome of the process was a diverse and very well-qualified choice of candidates. At shortlist stage all three candidates were appointable, and with David’s support, we were able to secure an outstanding first choice candidate.
My board commented very positively about the high quality of the candidates that they met as part of the selection process.
David differentiated himself and The LSL Group in two key ways. He has deep experience and understanding of our sector and so could add value through positive challenging. Secondly he was highly flexible – the solution was crafted to exactly meet our needs.
Having recently concluded our search, I can also add that David was a pleasure to work with, nothing was too much trouble for him. It proved to be a highly successful collaboration and I happily recommend David and The LSL Group.
Chief Executive, International Professional Body
David helped me to deal with urgent and immediate issues and to plan out my longer-term goals and challenges. He provided an excellent sounding board, encouraged a number of alternative approaches and provided practical tools in dealing with operational and strategic issues. David helped me to think through the much bigger organisational issues and support my personal development. He has helped shape my future role, my ability to analyse organisational & people issues and armed me some invaluable insight about myself, that I wasn’t aware of.
David’s approach is one of empathy, great listening skills, challenging the client to think differently and providing them with the tools to help them progress both personally and professionally.
Executive Coaching Client
As an individual new to coaching, I began the process slightly guarded and fearful of exposing my vulnerabilities. Within a work setting, exposing vulnerabilities can wrongfully be perceived as a weakness and move organisational thinking to what people think should be said rather than based on what needs to be addressed.
David’s approach to working with me and encouraging open and honest dialogue enabled a relationship of trust that allowed for self-reflection and the opportunity to identify route causes of the challenges that I identified within a work setting, allowing me to progress and commit to goals based on reality.
Within this coaching experience, David has helped me to focus and sharpen my skills and approaches towards influencing and structure in my work. David has also helped me to prioritise time to think and reflect, in the early stages of coaching David helped me to recognise that I hadn’t been taking time out to reflect on my development and brought barriers to our sessions – this really helped me to focus on what I wanted to get out of this experience and become vulnerable and invested in the process of coaching.
Executive Coaching Client
I sponsored a member of my team to go through a course of executive coaching with David. My team member spent a lot of time doubting her abilities and put too much pressure on herself to deliver within her role. This constant self-doubt was exhausting, causing her stress and stopping her from being able to prioritise and delegate to others. It was also really important for her to concentrate on her own development which had been put to one side for too long.
By working with David, she was able to take confidence in her achievements and capabilities, and really think about the value that she brings. David has done a fantastic job in supporting her to renew her sense of self-belief and find tools to manage her self-doubt. His manner is kind, calm and encouraging, which was exactly what was needed in this scenario.
The change in my team member has been transformational. She is now much more confident and focused on what needs to be achieved, rather than feeling as though she needs to do everything. Thanks for your support with this David.
Executive Coaching Sponsor
Being offered the opportunity to be coached by David, has been the best thing for me. Four months ago I was lacking in confidence and questioning my own ability as an HR professional. David’s, approach, empathy and good listening skills have helped me to reflect and understand my value and through the coaching process he has supported me to develop techniques to maintain that confidence when faced with challenging situations. I feel that I have gained so much from the coaching experience and would highly recommend David.
