My challenge was that I didn’t dare express myself in English.
In spite of knowing I speak quite well. I felt everyone around me is much better and I’m just not good enough.
I’m an expert at what I do, but if I look unsure, clients will think our company’s not professional.
Event organising is very different to buying something off the internet.
How you present your business and sell yourself counts for everything.
Trust is really key to winning more business.
I was unsure if communication coaching was what I needed.
I thought my problem was English knowledge. That I should just go for an English course to learn a very high level.
I'm so glad I invested in working with Matt, because during our sessions I learnt my problem is not what I thought it was.
A self confidence rather than an English speaking issue.
From the start I felt safe, could be honest and share things with Matt.
It’s so important because without this trust and openness, it wouldn’t have worked.
It was fun and this helped a lot.
It was very surprising because I thought it would be uncomfortable to speak about my fears and challenges, but Matt made it just so natural.
Working with Matt, we now have several international clients, which we wouldn’t have before.
I’m now confident to communicate.
It’s opened my mind to see I have more strengths and I’m better than I thought.
Now when a new client writes to me in English I don’t feel worried and stressed out about when I meet them and have to speak.
Yes.
To someone that’s never tried coaching, I’d say if you want to truly change something in your life you have to dive in and be really open to it.
