What our clients say

Supporting Senior Executives in their Professional Growth

I’ve engaged Peter on a range of issues at Shell and at McKinsey & Co, notably in supporting senior executives in their professional and personal growth. He brings a remarkable and, in my view, quite a unique range of skills to his facilitation and development work, tapping into the rational, emotional and physical realms to inspire people to generate deep insight and unlock their potential. Leaders find that Peter quickly connects with them personally, easily grasps their context, and is fun to work with.
