What my clients say

Dyllis helped me to explore my options at a particularly demanding time in my career. She is an engaging, attentive and challenging coach supporting me to ‘be braver sooner’ by leaving long-term employment to undertake an MBA – Dyllis has quite literally helped me to change my life!

I wholeheartedly recommend you get in touch with Dyllis to discuss how coaching can help you to achieve your potential. Good luck!

Alex McAnulty Head of Services, Norfolk Coalition of Disabled People

Dyllis has helped me, through her supportive but gently challenging manner, to overcome low levels of confidence and self-esteem, and think much more positively about the future. With the aid of DISC profiling Dyllis has helped me to better understand myself, inspiring and encouraging me in my quest for meaningful work. Dyllis is very professional and pleasant to work with, and I would recommend her for personal development coaching.

I worked with Dyllis as my coach over a six month period as I was interested in looking at my personal development and growth with the overall aim of determining which career direction I wanted to go in and then obtaining employment.

Having never had a coach before I didn’t really understand how it worked and when to expect to see results. Dyllis has exceeded all my expectations.

I would describe Dyllis as an approachable, professional and very dedicated coach. Quickly understanding me – my way of thinking – then encouraging me to find clear strategies to success.

Dyllis has effectively provided me with a series of tools and a clearer understanding of personal change and growth which have helped me become a more successful, driven and positive individual.

I have recently achieved full time employment in my current chosen career and Dyllis has also supported and encouraged me to pursue volunteer opportunities in a field which I may wish to consider changing to at a future date.

I would recommend Dyllis to anyone interested in personal development as I have learnt first-hand how beneficial coaching with her has been.

Dyllis helped me decide where to direct my energies at a time when I was bewildered by the range of possible directions open to me at an early stage of my career. She showed me a structured way of determining what sort of career path would best fit with my values and skills, and encouraged me to set concrete goals that brought me closer to that path.

Throughout the process, Dyllis was patient, considerate and encouraging. I would also highly recommend the DISC profiling that Dyllis offers: it has given me a new way of thinking about the way I communicate with others in the workplace, and I’m looking forward to trying it out.

Tom Seeking Career Change and a New Direction

Thank you so much for conducting the Myers Briggs Personality Profile with me.

It helped me identify my natural behaviours and those I have learnt to adopt over my years in business. Confirming that I am able to adapt in different situations and use my learnt behaviour rather than my natural behaviour when it is more appropriate.

You delivered the Personality Profile in a very informative manner, giving me all the information I needed to complete it. The discussion after completion of the Personality Profile was invaluable, helping me identify that following a period of chronic illness I am actually the same person I was before the illness. You also allowed plenty of time in order to complete the Personality Profile and even had some extra time at the end to give me some coaching regarding an impending house move. During this coaching you helped me identify the behaviours I was using to make my decisions and that I could use some learnt behaviours where necessary to complete the task. This coaching was invaluable.

All in all it was a very useful exercise, delivered in a professional and friendly manner, allowing me to complete the exercise at my own pace.

As part of my Masters in Assistive Technology, I had to complete a work based learning module (WBL) implementing a change in adult social care, drawing upon both project and change management experience and theory as well as a wide range of evidence based practice for Assistive Technology. The WBL module required that I identified and worked with a mentor and coach. As I had read and been inspired by an article Dyllis had written on this very subject, I thought Dyllis would be my perfect coach. I was delighted to discover that as well as writing an excellent article, Dyllis is indeed also a professional coach, and agreed to work with me!

I had considered working with a coach previously over a number of years but never actually made the leap. So I was delighted that I did, and wondered why I hadn’t done it sooner! Over the course of a 6 month period, Dyllis coached me in a number of professional areas, including the development of my personal skills and effectiveness, in particular around listening, leadership and communication. Dyllis’ style is friendly and professional, formal and structured around achieving specific goals that I identified as being important to me or my career development. And always flexible where things never ran exactly as planned. The result is that I have renewed my contract with my customer, providing a further 6 months of consultancy, and I am also continuing with the coaching!

Richard Haynes Interim Assistive Technology Commissioner, Northamptonshire County Council

Dyllis is a rare and exceptional coach. As a high achiever and someone who is just starting on their first business venture, I was seeking a coach who could match my fast pace of learning and rate of progress.

Dyllis superseded all my expectations. She was professional and objective, yet patient and empathetic. Due to the current demands of my newfound career, I found myself having to multi-task to a great extent.

Dyllis did a fantastic job in helping me maintain my focus and drive. I felt that I was engaged in a truly collaborative process, and I left each session feeling enthused and energised.

Thank you Dyllis, for all your help and support.

Dr. Maya Dillon Ph.D. Founder and Director of Ex Sociis Ltd. Corporate Executive and Personal Performance Coach

I would highly recommend Dyllis to anyone looking for coaching around professional or career development. Dyllis can guide you through discussions around past experiences and allow you to reflect and build upon these identifying the positives.

Dyllis can work with you to identify future goals and specify how you will achieve these, developing a focused plan for future career development. I found each of my sessions with Dyllis to be an enjoyable experience and I continue to use the actions form each session to build towards my long term plans.

Rowan Horton Development Manager

Excellent business coach.

The opportunity to take redundancy spurred me on to start my own business, but going from employee to employer took me to unknown territory and I lost a bit of confidence.

I met Dyllis at a networking event and immediately liked her. She has a great coaching manner which made me feel empowered and confident again very quickly.

My business is now doing very well and is way ahead of projected forecasts. If you’re reading this considering whether to contact her or not… please do… she’s amazing.

Rebecca Houston Founder, Desire Marketing Ltd. Visit client website

Working with Dyllis over the last few months has really helped fast track my progress in a range of areas we have worked on. Quickly establishing a good rapport and understanding of how I work, Dyllis’ coaching style helped me gain clarity, understanding and direction.

The dynamic of working with a professional outside of the Business was a leading factor in choosing DF Coaching. Having a number of sessions also worked for me to help commit fully and maintain focus.

Thanks again Dyllis and I look forward to working with you on future projects.
