Testimonials

We have worked with Salomons Consultancy on a number of occasions over the last 6 months and have benefitted greatly from their knowledge and experience around Psychometric Testing.  We have used the testing as part of the appointments process for a number of senior posts within our organisation and it has been very helpful to have the insight into individuals that Psychometric Testing provides.  Posie and Chris are very professional in their work and a pleasure to work with.  We would have no hesitation in recommending them for this area of work.

It is fair to say that my personal and professional development has rocketed since engaging with the Salomons consultancy team and that my career has progressed significantly, thanks to the changes in self that have resulted from the courses, assessments and action learning sets that I have attended.  The  diverse set of resources made the journey incredibly interesting for me  and  Chris’ dedication and experience ensured that I penetrated the façade that I present to the world, which unquestionably led to real, impactive, positive and permanent development and change.  Chris and Posie are positive, inspiring, experienced and challenging, which is a perfect combination. for those who want to  progress, and the personable and professional way that they deliver their services ensures an excellent experience every time.

“ We have developed a great partnership with Salomons Consultancy who have supported NHS Grampian to create effective processes for Executive and Director assessment and selection. Their style is collaborative, with a good attention to detail whilst always remaining objective.”

Gerry Lawrie

Head of Workforce & Development, NHS Grampian

I have worked with Posie over a number of years and this has provided me space to explore current challenges and has helped me identify and deliver solutions throughout.  When appropriate this has involved use of recognised tools to clarify issues and relationships; and has included opportunity to engage work colleagues in a facilitated session. The greatest benefit has however been the opportunity to discuss the need for change and to then achieve and demonstrate improvement in whatever situation is under discussion. I have no hesitation in recommending Salomon’s Consultancy whether for personal coaching or for supportive challenge at an organisational level.

Director of Workforce, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust

Posie Maitles is a superb coach and mentor. I was introduced to Posie as part of a mentorship arrangement to take the 16PF test and walk through the analysis with her and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is client centred in her posture and gracious, thorough and robust in her approach. As a coach she seeks to draw out self-awareness of both gifting and potential, and then to help practically chart a course of personal development that leads to growth and improvement in areas of both strength and weakness. She is tough enough to challenge but gracious enough to do it in a way that brings understanding and leads to motivation and not de-motivation. She is greatly encouraging and brings wisdom and life through her work. As a client this approach has boosted my own self-awareness and effectiveness, and I am experiencing the benefits in both work and personal life.

“I have worked with Posie and the Salomons team closely since early 2020.  Of course Salomons have been professional, responsive, customer centric and dynamic in providing their service.  What has been most impressive however is that, in a relatively short time,  they have built trusted working relationships.  The Salomons team are willing to offer their expertise to support the delivery of great outcomes for my organisation, and that has been invaluable.”

Linda Douglas

“We have always found the Salomons consultancy team well able to adapt to the specific needs of our organisation, recognising our objectives and drivers and responsive to the changing landscape as required. Wherever possible, in my experience they prefer to use real issues and projects as a platform for development and I think this has been a key strength.”

I’ve worked with Posie and Chris from Salomons Consultancy for a number of years and would highly recommend them. They helped us design, develop and deliver a training course which has been one of our best.  Their flexible, encouraging but challenging approach means that they deliver the best for the organisation and the people receiving the training.
