Personal Growth
Success Rate
I met Kevin at a transitional time of my own personal and professional development - I had ambitious growth plans and was looking for advice and experience to help me on this path. I was seeking a positive, constructive and independent sounding board with whom I could talk through my plans for personal and professional development and growth. Kevin has a great knack of being able to see straight to the heart of any issue and asking probing questions. I leave each meeting feeling that I have solved any issues and have a better view of my opportunities by receiving very astute guidance through coaching. Kevin's mantra is simple but one that I believe accentuates the positive experience I have received from his coaching - he has made me a better version of myself.

I took on Kevin as my coach and worked with him quarterly for 3 years. He is a very good listener, caring and a great coach. When I first worked with Kevin, I lacked confidence, had little or no direction in my life. Because of my sessions, my confidence has hugely grown both personally and at work, I have greater self-esteem and have even been promoted to a senior role at work. I have become a better version of myself as a result and would thoroughly recommend Kevin.
Kathryn Ditchfield
IT Director
I have nothing but positive feedback about Kevin, my 1:1 meetings have been nothing but beneficial not only personally but from a business prospective, a supportive and professional mentor.
Chris Atkins

I have employed Kevin`s services as a coach over several years. During this time, I believe I have changed, both as a person and as a business leader. The difference Kevin has made to me and my business is remarkable. He is a true professional, this combined with the thoughtful and caring coaching is the secret of his success.

Kevin is simply one of the best guides I have ever met.
Phil Wright
CEO
My 1-2-1 mentoring has really helped me understand what drives me, the actions I need to take to improve my business, and how to develop me as an individual. Kevin is an excellent listener and is great at getting straight to the point, He also doesn't allow you to shy away from the big decisions
David Forrester
CEO
When I was experiencing personal issues with a key family member it affected my self-confidence and was putting a strain on the family in general. I turned to Kevin to help me, I was sceptical at first, but Kevin immediately made me feel at ease and we very quickly built a powerful connection and mutual trust. Over 6 sessions he helped me get a different perspective on managing myself and others, to break patterns that were not serving me well and build my confidence. The outcome was remarkable, we are now a tight knit family group and I am thriving with my new-found confidence. I can’t thank Kevin enough.

My business was going through a downturn and potentially was going to close. I couldn’t see a way out, a friend recommended I try a session with Kevin and so I booked in. He gave me clarity on my goals and vision, helped me with the strategy to grow, guided and mentored me through the tough decisions, and held me accountable for my actions. The business has turned around and now has great prospects and is enjoying growth for the first time in many years. I am sure that without Kevin’s, coaching, mentoring and guidance that this would not be the case.
Ian Fraser
Business Owner
In the last two years Kevin has mentored me through some of my most challenging personal and business situations. His approach is supportive yet challenging, and always without judgment or opinion. With his support I’ve been able to add an arsenal of tools and techniques to draw from, and I can’t put a price on the number of ‘light bulb’ moments that I’ve had since working with Kevin. I can highly recommend him to anyone seeking a life / business coach.
Nicola Trussel
Marketing Executive
Initially, I started working with Kevin as my business coach. However, I went through a particularly difficult phase in my personal life which had a devastating impact on me. Through this period, Kevin was very supportive, his coaching was sensitive but challenging and nurturing at the same time. He helped me to rebuild my life, regain my mojo and manage my state. Kevin has great understanding and empathy with any situation presented to him and instinctively knows what approach to take to walk you through the challenge and deliver you safely on the other side.

“We all want to be the best we can. It takes a little insight to know what to focus on to improve the way you work and how well you perform. Kevin’s support for me at the Cathedral Archer Project in 121 coaching has been quite simple and yet so effective. Do I have the drive and passion for the work I do? What are the key areas for me to be concerned about and invest the most energy in? And once I have identified those things, what tasks will I do that leads to the outcome I want? The answers to those questions need to be mine. Essentially that is Kevin’s skill, helping me to think through why, what and how I will go about developing our charity. In to the mix he brings his own experience of starting and running a business and the learning that has changed his own life, learning which has helped him to think about healthy, purposeful workplace cultures that all employees should benefit from. I heartily recommend Kevin’s coaching. “
Tim Renshaw
CEO Cathedral Archer Project
Kevin always asks thought provoking questions that lead to me making firm decisions about work and life. He then makes me accountable, so I can follow these decisions through to conclusion. Due to coaching I am better equipped with some invaluable skills that let me look at challenges in different what’s thus being able to make meaningful solutions. I am a better person and leader today due to the coaching sessions I have received from Kevin.
Rebecca Aldren
CEO
Whilst I had experienced coaching on a variety of training courses, having a personal coach was, for me, somewhat a daunting step to take. With a demanding professional life which involved a lot of travel and time away from home, and my personal time extremely squeezed, I was sceptical that I would be able to commit to coaching sessions and being so overloaded would just not be able to make benefit from the interaction. However, working with Kevin as my coach one of the best things I have ever done, both as a professional and critically as an individual. I am not exaggerating to say that for the first time in decades I have a reasonable work life balance, in large part achieved through the coaching process; have achieved some of the most challenging things to happen to me in my professional life and achieved an enormous personal dream of a major relocation without it adversely impacting on my role, domestic circumstances, or personal life. From the outset Kevin has sought to understand my professional and personal goals, and helped me refine them, develop my actions and find in amongst the overcrowded demands of life, a path which has help me get to grips with achieving improvement in areas I would have struggled without his insight and coaching approach. He’s acted as a sounding board, helped me clarify complexity and held me accountable for what I’ve said I will do. This has been with a supportive, personable and empowering coaching style, the generosity to also share his own experience and life story.
Cassandra Brown
CEO
Kevin’s advice in our 121 coaching sessions has been invaluable, whether we’ve been discussing personal, professional or family matters. He is always smiling, positive, helpful and constructive, but he rarely accepts the easy answer or the apparent truth: far from it. He has a disarming, friendly nature and during mentoring sessions he is perceptive, insightful and has great experience and advice to bring to bear on many business issues and personal questions. Most of all, Kevin’s NLP and open-questioning encourage the person being mentored to find their own solution to the problem they have experienced. He merely facilitates their journey with surprisingly apt comments and thought-provoking questions along the way. The space and time to think and openly discuss confidential and sensitive matters is essential to modern life, especially for business leaders. Kevin allows us the opportunity to speak honestly about topics which we cannot with most people, and his gentle but firm process always leaves you feeling satisfied that you have a better idea of how to achieve the goals you’re seeking. I always recommend talking about issues, private and professional, and there is no-one better to do that with than Kevin Kerley.
