Success Stories

Some feedback from our clients....

I was introduced to Mike at a point in my life when I had started to lose confidence and belief in what I was doing and why I was doing it...a downturn in business and a couple of difficult conversations with team members had dented my confidence and I was starting to wonder whether I was the right person for the job. Working with Mike completely transformed my outlook, happiness - and my ability to do my job. Through conversations with both me and my CEO he was able to get right to the heart of what was driving my loss of confidence - and from there he quickly helped me go from understanding the problems to identifying and implementing the solutions. What I particularly loved about Mike was that, while he listened quietly when he needed to - letting me speak and asking the right questions to help me get to better understanding of my issues ... he has also provided me with broader frameworks and ways of thinking that I now put into practise to help me lead the business in a way that reduces stress and enables me to be true to my values as a leader.

I've been working with Mike for nearly three years on a suite of leadership development programmes for new to senior Managers. Professionally, I always look forward to collaborating with Mike because of the energy, passion and experience he brings to every engagement.
Mike has a fantastic range as a facilitator - his natural sense of fun brings a lightness of touch and humour to the learning, yet he can be challenging and directive when needed.
I have been lucky enough to see him in action as a coach; he asks insightful questions to get to the heart of the issue for each person he works with. His 'super power' is his ability to understand people's self-limitations and build confidence.
Personally, I just enjoy having Mike around and hope we get to work together for many years more. It's always a pleasure.

Senior Manager, AT Kearney

"The development of colleagues is key to our success in managing the challenges presented in the NHS to ensure the best care for patients. Working with Mike and his team was thought provoking, professionally challenging (in a good way!) and above all enlightening. The programme was truly collaborative with Mike and the team listening and engaging to ensure the programme met the needs of those in attendance. At no point did we get the sense this was anything other than bespoke.

The impact the development programme has yielded includes improved confidence of those involved and enhanced collaboration (in particular strategic approach) across NHSE/I and HEE to maximise learning from other areas in the region.

I would definitely recommend Mike Mullins Consulting Ltd to develop and support your teams. I am in no doubt their approach is carefully curates the correct package for each unique team.

Deborah Manger Deputy Dean, NHS Health Education England

Mike is a very gifted individual and an absolute pleasure to work with. He brings a unique depth of experience from his work in and outside of the NHS coupled with an unwaveringly thoughtful and constructive approach. It has been a delight to work in partnership with him in creating and delivering our bespoke leadership development programme. Mike brought a valuable innovative approach to the overall design of our Leadership Development programme. For example how we might engage with our critics, strengthen working partnerships with external stakeholders and build leadership capability focused on our key organisational challenges. The delivery team Mike lead has consistently received exceptional feedback from programme participants about the quality of facilitation. Our future leaders felt empowered and supported by Mike's engaging coaching style.

Michelle Stansfield, Head of HR, NHS Digital

Mike was my personal coach when I attended Genesis Park, the PwC talent program. Mike's personal coaching had a profound impact on my self awareness, confidence and direction as a leader. On a day-to-day basis I draw on the learnings I had from working with Mike. His contribution to my development has lead to a number of successes since.

Simon Cuthbert, Partner Assurance, PwC Australia

I worked with Mike when I transitioned from consulting back into industry. Mike is an experienced and intuitive coach who has great interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence. He was highly recommended to me and I would also highly recommend his work. A real coaching professional and one I plan to work with on a regular basis.

Dominic Fielding, Head of Compliance, Conduct & MLRO, Heartwood Wealth Management, part of the Handelsbanken Group

Mike has the perfect coaching style; a blend of experience, empathy, curiosity (and directness when required) that helped me immensely. I really enjoyed working with Mike and would not hesitate in recommending him to others

David Edwards, Chief Marketing Officer, Vistra

Mike will make you feel more empowered to take on the world. He's astute and has real depth, able to understand what you're about and where you're coming from. He combines this with an innate ability to bring an objective dimension, enabling clients to see themselves more 'holistically'. Mike provokes and stimulates, asking tough questions - in a warm, collaborative style - which was incredibly effective.
