Coaching services | Dyllis Faife Coaching

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.

Dyllis Faife is a great coach. She is patient, committed and concerned. I value every session that I have had with Dyllis and feel that she has made a real difference to my life.

If you want to move forward in your life and want support to help you find your way, Dyllis is a fantastic solution. My self-confidence has increased and this means I am now able to take a more flexible approach to life and am more confident and proactive in my decision-making. The changes in me have led to an improved home and professional life.

Thank you Dyllis.

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 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!

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.

Thank you for the Myers-Briggs personality profile you did for me. The whole process was professional and every step was clearly explained throughout.

It was an interesting process and Dyllis took the time to discuss each element in detail with me. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to anyone.

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.

I started coaching sessions with Dyllis in order to help me through a challenging period at work. I was impressed by how quickly Dyllis understood my situation and during our first session I was already making progress in putting together some strategies to address some of my challenges.

During the follow up sessions we were increasingly able to increase the scope of our discussions, and within 6 months I was able to handle a variety of work situations much more effectively than I ever could have hoped to, it has been an extremely worthwhile and rewarding exercise.

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

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.
