DIRECTOR, GLOBAL POLICY & ADVOCACY AT BILL & MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION

Considea invested in understanding my team very quickly, worked closely with me on designing the retreat we needed, and then delivered a thoughtful, insightful two-day event that helped us address exactly the issues we needed to cover to be a better team.  And along the way, we all enjoyed working with them.

HEAD OF GLOBAL QUALITTY SYSTEM & PROCESSES, GENENTECH

Howard and his team worked with our leadership team to plan our annual leadership conference for our top 75 leaders, and to improve our leadership team's performance. Based on the work we started with Howard and Considea, we now have very tangible results to show.  In the follow up survey, the engagement scores from our leadership team and the top 75 leaders showed phenomenal improvement--up 20-30 percentage points across numerous drivers! What I really appreciated about working with Howard and the Considea team is that they really focused on how to help us achieve successful outcomes.  They stayed totally focused on that and tailored and adjusted support to meet our needs.  I highly recommend them!

SENIOR EXECUTIVE AT A MAJOR MULTI-LATERAL ORGANIZATION

Monika and Howard are great advisors, and I get tremendous leverage from Considea. They think through what needs to get done and where I can provide leverage, and then they bring it to me and make it seem like it was my idea!   I trust them completely to do what they need to do.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AT TOWERSTONE PARTNERS

I first worked with Howard almost ten years ago, when I was Chief Operating Officer, EMEA, for the iShares business at Barclays Global Investors. Howard was then instrumental in creating large-scale workshops and away days for the entire iShares business, which transformed the way we worked as a team and set a solid foundation of culture (values and behaviours) for the entire business. He also worked with the senior team as we grappled with our business strategy. I quickly established a high-trust relationship with Howard, which has resonated throughout my career since. Sometimes years have passed without contact, then at key moments I have picked up the phone and clicked back in like it was just last week. Over the past few months, Howard has provided me with a sounding board for strategic decision making during a time when significant changes were happening. The life of a CEO, whilst surrounded by dozens of people, can be a lonely existence when those people look to you for direction - having Howard there, probing the motivations and consequences of key decisions I needed to make, was invaluable. Howard also gets my highest recommendation as an executive coach. He has a rare ability to distil down a complex business problem or relationship to its core components. From this, we could quickly cut through to what decisions needed to be made. 'Cutting through' is probably what Howard has best helped me do. Howard has showed content expertise, emotional intelligence, and most importantly an honesty in assessment. I would not hesitate to engage with Howard again; in fact I fully intend to!
