What Our Clients Are Saying
My interactions with Steve have truly been game changing. Our first session was over 6 years ago when my former employer engaged him to provide leadership coaching to several individuals on the team. After I left that role and co-founded Novum in 2017, Steve has been integral in providing the guidance, reassurance, and accountability we needed to successfully build a values-based company and assemble a team of talented, passionate, collegiate people. Steve’s role has evolved into a formal leadership position at Novum. His role as our Senior Business Partner continues to flourish in step with our company’s growth and success, and along the way we have become great friends. As a mentor, coach and friend, Steve earns my highest recommendation.
Steve raises the benchmark for professional coaching and mentoring. From the very first session, Steve was personable, relatable and humble enough to provide me with the opportunity to critically reflect on my professional and personal journey with complete comfort. Steve will motivate and inspire you to expand the boundaries of what is possible. He genuinely cares about making a difference and his influence on your growth can be felt personally, professionally and organisationally. Joining my journey at a time when I was struggling to be my best, Steve ensured I became aware of my core values, balancing my levers and how to be an effective leader of myself in order to effectively lead and influence others. Steve challenges you to be accountable for your own development and provides you with the appropriate tools and framework to achieve your goals. Since commencing my journey with Steve, my career has realigned with my ambitions, my team has benefited enormously and my ability to find balance in my personal life has improved immeasurably. I hold Steve in the highest regard and recommend his coaching and mentorship to all aspiring leaders who want to make a difference.
Over the years I have been on many management courses and coaching sessions. Being coached and mentored by Steve has been the most effective to date. It has changed the way I approach my day to day work as well as my personal life at home. Steve’s approach to coaching and mentoring made these realisations clear and concise. I have already seen the benefits of this coaching and would not only recommend Steve’s services but encourage you to seek out Steve if you are committed to make positive changes to yourself and your business / employees. My team have also been the beneficiary of this coaching and I can say it has made a massive impact to our effectiveness as a team as well as our engagement. Thank you Steve.
Steve’s coaching has been the most beneficial experience in my working career and I have developed skills that I will take with me as my career grows. He changed the way I thought of coaching from a results driven approach to a journey of self development and realization. Within the first session, I felt like I was able to trust him and open up. He provided insight into my communication behaviours that I was not aware of and how that would effect how people receive my message. As I was having issues with training a new employee, Steve’s was able to provide a framework of knowledge, run through examples of difficult conversations and guide me through areas to focus on. I was able to convert my uncertainty to useful planning which helped me manage those difficult conversations. Every session was tailored to my developmental needs and there were action points after each session for me to work and reflect on I would highly recommend Steve to anyone as the skills developed can be transferred to any aspect of your life.
I first met Steve Riddle some 15 months ago, and instantly felt comfortable. I have been working with Steve since then on the CoachStation mentoring and coaching program. It is through these programs and Steve’s; passion, enthusiasm, professionalism and knowledge, that has enabled me to be more self-aware, a more inclusive leader with improved capability to influence and interaction with others. Focusing on the strengths of others and that of my own and with Steve’s open honest feedback this is enabling me to be a better person. Steve has had nothing but a positive impact on me personally and professionally and for that I am truly grateful. He has the ability to; listen, understand, engage and challenge you to achieve success. An absolutely pleasure to work with.
Having never had an ‘official’ coach before, I wasn’t sure what to expect and wondered if the team or I would value from the session. A year on and I couldn’t recommend Steve of CoachStation highly enough. Rarely do we meet people that are genuine, professional, have perspective and a delivery style that brings out the best you, the best team, the best all round, but I found it in Steve from day one. With a talent of being able to question without offense, the knack to challenge team behaviours with a desire of seeking to understand, in turn the team and I could grow. Simply outstanding! From my regular one on ones these past six months Steve has allowed me to personally gain clarity on priorities, what I value and how that aligns to a team with significant cultural history.
