Testimonials

‘When I first started working with Bec Development I was concerned that this would be a box ticking exercise and doubted whether or not I would gain much.  Despite my initial cynicism I am happy to say that I have gained a considerable amount from my coaching sessions and would recommend them to anyone working in a pressured corporate environment.  The key benefits being: having an intelligent and articulate foil and someone to help facilitate your own ideas and solutions."

Will Ramage, Director of Trading, Clear Channel

‘When I started my coaching sessions with Helen, I really didn't know what to expect from the process.  Now I can't imagine what it would be like not to work with her. She has enabled me to improve my performance by helping me to better understand my own approach to work and the way I interact with others.  She has also helped me to manage specific challenges such as building a new team, managing a difficult report and improving my work/life balance.  With Helen on my side I know that I can deliver, and that's because of her supportive approach and her ability to help you get to the heart of what is preventing you from moving forwards.'

Claire Round, Marketing Director, Random House

'In coaching, Helen Tiffany has a natural gift of empathising, yet taking a clear and objective view of situations and manages to get right underneath the skin of a coachee very quickly.  She creates a safe environment, always respecting the client and confidentiality - but most importantly she helps you and supports you in finding your own solutions and makes you feel relieved, listened to, loaded with new techniques and as a consequence more confident and ready to take on your next challenge.  Among all of this, Helen still manages to bring humour into all her development programmes - I cannot recommend Bec Development highly enough!'

Beatrice O'Brien, Head of Learning and Development, Starcom MediaVest Group

Being a new manager my company set me up on few training course's with BEC Development to help me with the upcoming hurdles I was going to face.  The courses were extremely helpful and always packed full of information and advice.  As I got more and more into my new role I was struggling and sinking fast with the workload and dealing with the team.  Helen could see I was overwhelmed and was getting to the point of admitting defeat.   I did think my boss had made a mistake in appointing me but Helen could see the potential even if I couldn't, all I needed was a little push in the right direction.  So from there I started getting 1:1 coaching sessions.  When we would meet I could talk through the issues / problems I was having with the job and where in the past I was told what I wanted to hear, Helen is always able to make me see it from both points and give me sound advice.  Not always giving me the answers but making me think through and guide me in the direction I need to go and find the answers.     

My team have noticed the change in me and how I do things which has improved our relationships and made the team stronger.  I now stand back and think first as it's like Helen is always in the background guiding me, sounds mad.  The manager I'm now becoming is down to Helen and I want to say a big Thank you to Helen and BEC development for all your help and support over the last year.
