Working with Duncan on my career goals and aspirations has been truly transformative. He has the right tools and approach to support me on my journey of self-discovery. He listens attentively, encourages reflection, and isn’t afraid to challenge your perspectives when it’s necessary to guide you towards the changes you want to achieve.

A significant milestone in this process has been my experience with the Positive Intelligence programme, which Duncan recommended. I’m grateful to myself for keeping an open mind and trying something new.

The 6-week programme is designed to help individuals identify their personal mental blockers. In simple terms, it helps you recognise the negative thoughts and inner voices that sabotage your progress. I learnt so much about myself - some insights were expected, while others were surprising and even hard to accept at first. However, as the programme progressed, I realised that there are straightforward methods to quieten these negative thoughts and shift focus towards our full potential.

The programme explores when and how these negative voices first emerged. But, unlike therapy, it doesn’t dwell on why they appeared—instead, it focuses on how to manage and live with them as adults.

Thanks to my work with Duncan and the Positive Intelligence programme, my confidence and self-esteem have improved significantly and now I am on a steady track chasing my desired career path. I highly recommend both Duncan’s coaching and the Positive Intelligence programme! More...

As soon as I first spoke to Duncan I knew he was the person who was going to be able to help me. I have a very fast paced mind, but his tone and considered questioning slowed me down immediately.

I have been seeing Duncan for a few months. I am a clinically trained professional and I wanted to upscale my private business. I have found it such a helpful process. Duncan clearly understands my sector. He is able to help me think about how to go about expanding my business. He also is able to help me to think about things that may be making this harder. He has an approach that develops my thinking also he facilitates reflection. He can help me to think about what I need to focus on and what I need to adapt. He can offer his own experience which I need as I have never done this before. But all this is offered to suit what I need. I would highly recommend him. My business is developing and I have made a lot of operational progress, when before I started with Duncan, I thought about it. More...

Duncan has been a great listener, attentive and strategic coach for me. I am a 35yr old woman that felt stuck in my career at mid-management level, with high aspirations but no tangible way to progress in a company led by men. I wanted to understand how to work better with the existing senior leadership and how to become a better manager myself while paving the way for my junior team. The work I have done with Duncan has been fundamental to better understand what success looks like for me and celebrate what I have forged this far, and in a matter of 5 weeks I can already notice a change in my self awareness and confidence with incremental benefits taking shape for my team.

I was pointed in Duncan's direction during a particularly challenging time in my professional life, struggling to balance the demands of work with my personal well-being. Duncan introduced me to the PQ coaching framework, and honestly, it was a game-changer. The PQ framework offered me tangible, practical tools that I could apply daily, making a significant difference in how I managed stress, decision-making, and my overall approach to work-life balance.

Through the PQ program, I learned strategies to boost my mental fitness, enabling me to respond to challenges more positively and effectively. The exercises and techniques shared by Duncan have not only improved my professional performance but also enriched my personal life, giving me a newfound sense of clarity and purpose.

For anyone feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of their career or seeking to enhance their professional and personal development, I can't recommend Duncan's PQ coaching enough. It's an investment in yourself that pays dividends in all aspects of life. More...

Duncan is the most influential mentor I have worked with since I have been developing simulation models for the dental and medical sectors. It was through our regular monthly zoom coaching meetings he was able to understand, and challenge many of my own assumptions and beliefs. When I eventually travelled to the UK for my 1st business trip, he introduced me to a leading expert in my sector, who ultimately confirmed and validated what I needed to do to break into the US market. You cannot imagine how much I have been able to grow my company and my networking abilities as a result of Duncan's support and network. If you are fortunate enough to have Duncan's professional time like I have it could be transformational. He is a mentor that can get a full understanding of your business and goals and he will help you to push your limits in your company. More...

As a fellow coach, I know what to look for in someone who is helping you to get clarity and make progress. Duncan is great at this and was an excellent thinking partner allowing me to really focus and make the positive changes I desired.
