What our customers say
"This course went way beyond what I expected. I had an amazing experience. I was visible and I was listened to and I think that is very hard to achieve in any training. I felt really supported and safe. I now use the skills in large public sector organisations, in focus groups, in networking, in managing conflict, designing interviews and in career work I do in schools."

ILM Level 5 Certificate in Coaching and Mentoring
"Marian, you have done it! Clean Approaches for Coaches is an essential handbook for coaches, counselors, managers, teachers, parents - for all who influence and lead others and choose to do so impeccably and with a clean approach. David Grove gave us access to the treasure of using metaphor to find meaning and to create lasting change. This book is the step by step, specifically HOW to make the best use of that rich treasure in a practical and productive way. The book is methodical, detailed, specific and inspiring - much like Marian's training programs. You are gently led deeper and deeper into the subject, acquiring knowledge and understanding in layers. David Grove said that metaphor mediates the interface between conscious and unconscious processes. Marian’s book is a valuable traveling companion into both realms for client and facilitator alike. Wherever you learn, coach, teach, grow and develop yourself and others, this book will guide you in your exploration of this deeply respectful approach to human change and development. "

Clean Approaches for Coaches
"What I liked was the light touch that Marian had on the training. She was there as a guide and facilitator. I was watching people go from day one to where they are now - it seems as if they've done it themselves, and I know they haven't, it just looks like that. The training has given me another space to go to when I'm facilitating so that I can step back and have a good clear look around at what's going on, and make sense of it all. I can then start to ask some questions that go with the logic."
