"I just wanted to thank you for the management development courses you have provided for us over this last year. The feedback from everyone who has attended them has been extremely positive. The team are definitely working better together and most individuals are definitely showing that they are thinking about the effect that their behaviour may have on others, and changing their approach if necessary. We will certainly be in touch again if we run similar workshops in future, and if you need any client recommendations or references for future work then please don't hesitate to contact me.

"Helen's drive and enthusiasm launched the first lunchtime BNI group in the North - which within 6 months was 7th out of 38 in the performance rankings. Post launch Helen's people management wisdom was invaluable to keep us on course for spectacular growth. Without Helen, we would not be where we are today.” "

"Inside Story are specialists in their field supplying high quality, value for money interior design to discerning clients. Within my role, I have so many hats to wear, first and foremost designer, sales person, purchasing manager and project manager - and whilst achieving great success so far, time was not on my side, with so many tasks and responsibilities I was aware I needed some assistance in planning our future.
I employed the services of Helen Bissett of Budding Futures to assist in defining a clear strategy for the business success, the meetings were fun and very informal I was asked a whole range of questions in order for her to gain a clear understanding of my aspirations, personally and for the business, any limiting thoughts of my own were challenged and unravelled and I was filled with great excitement and enthusiasm at the realisation that my goals were achievable.
have subsequently put into practice the disciplines we discussed and from my own personal experience I would highly recommend Budding Futures to anybody who has the passion to realise their dreams and ambitions.

"I am Patrick Horton of One Off Drawing, providing Architectural Services for domestic Planning and Building Regulation Applications. Shortly after joining the BNI, I met Helen Bissett of Budding Futures. I was impressed by the personal development coaching that Helen offered and felt that I needed her services. Over three sessions, Helen helped me to evaluate my goals, and set out a personalised development programme, developing a clear plan of action, helping me to become proactive rather than reactive. Helen has given me the wakeup call that I needed. I have had a huge boost in confidence and self belief. Thanks to Helen's coaching I feel revitilised and ready to take on anything. I now feel that I can achieve my goals and aspirations. I have no hesitation in referring Helen Bissett of Budding Futures."

"Kevin Green Photography provides photography for Weddings, Civil Partnerships, portraiture and Events.
I recently commissioned the services of Helen Bissett of Budding Futures as I acknowledged there were areas of my business I wanted to strenghen, From the outset I didn't really know what to expect as I had no prior experience of what business coaching and mentoring was all about. Very soon into my mentoring with Helen I began to realise that one of the biggest challenges for me in business was my own personal development and the importance of having a clearer vision of what I want to achieve for Kevin Greene Photography. Although businesss planning, marketing and advertising are all vital aspects I now believe that creating a shift in my own mindset; a better belief in what is possible is crucial.
Helen exceeded all my expectations. Helen's exceptional interpersonal skills enabled me to challenge what needed challenging most; me. Helen's relaxed and motivational approach encouraged me to consider what was 'holding me back' and to embrace and fully employ my ability and personal qualities that set me apart from my competitiors, This has enabled me to focus on what's important and make decisions about the future direction for the company.
I am now convinced that my vision for my company is clear and this excites me so much. This has been possible through my contact with Helen of Budding Futures. Her expertise is an asset to any company and so, with confidence, I recommend Helen to any business.
Kevin Green"
