What Clients Say

“We were so fortunate to have David Powell facilitate some very powerful workshops for Lloyd's where he completely held the attention and focus of 46 senior managers. He is a truly amazing executive coach and facilitator. David has now structured his empowerment approaches into online toolkits and coaching programs. I highly recommend David and his work to any organisation”

Dame Inga Beale
Former CEO Lloyds Insurance Corporation

“David Powell is the most inspirational, strategic thinker and facilitator I have met. He worked with our company over many years and had a profound influence on shaping our strategy. His innovative techniques resulted in deep engagement and lasting impact on corporate memory.”

Michael Watson
Chairman Canopius Group

“As a Managing Director for a FTSE 100 business in London, David was one of the few people I would engage to work with my sales teams. As a result, I had the advantage of a completely empowered team of sales executives and the lowest turnover of staff in the entire organisation. I have yet to experience another facilitator who can energise a group the way that David can”
