Having first met Declan in 2019, I honestly believe my life has changed for the better. He has guided me towards improvement in my career, my personal relationships, my sport and my study. I have a better balance in my life thanks to his valuable guidance.
Private Coaching Client
I’ve only seen Declan for three consultations, and I can honestly say I have found him fantastic! His approach is really unique. Initially I found the idea a bit disorienting, no pen or paper and out walking the cliffs of howth. He clarifies a simple, practical strategy in order to move forward. My practice has doubled within 3months of seeing Declan.
Private Coaching Client
I had the pleasure of working with Declan on a couple of projects and I have to say his energy and technical knowledge in working with high performing teams is outstanding.
Head of HR
Declan great job – your speech was one of the highest ever feedback scores we have gotten for any event nationwide in the last 3 years!!!
The Executive Institute
I attended a session Declan gave for Law Society Finuas Skillnet- – Strategies for Success. He had 100 lawyers of all ages and levels of experience on their feet participating in an interactive, engaging and thought provoking presentation. An excellent presenter.
The Law Society of Ireland
Thanks very much Declan for providing the AT&T team with a fantastic discussion about High Performance and getting the very best out of yourself. I’ve no doubt that the session will prove invaluable to the team going forward.
Corporate Team Manager
Declan has an incredible ability to connect and engage with people which assisted in making his workshop to be very interactive. Declan’s three step process to enhance your engagement, wellbeing and take control of your own career has proved an invaluable tool in helping me achieve greater fulfilment in both my career. and my personal life..
Corporate Team Manager
I found Declan after listening a podcast where his passion for what he does really resonated, so he was the first to come to mind when I sought the help of a coach to develop my leadership capabilities. He has a calm and steady presence which creates instant rapport and a feeling of safety. After our first session I felt more in touch with my strengths and inspired to move forward.
Corporate Team Leader
This is one of the best and most useful, practical courses that I have done. The tools that I have gained during this course will enable me to approach even the most difficult of situations from a more positive and understanding perspective. I would highly recommend.
Programme #1
Really enjoyed working with Declan who was so motivating. Also found the rest of the participants very willing to engage openly
Programme #1
I felt the course was very professionally delivered yet still in a relaxed fashion. Plenty of time was given to discuss and analyse the concepts being presented. Thank You.
Programme #2
This is a very worthwhile programme and has equipped me with a greater lens and insight into how I think and perform.
I am more aware of how I can adapt to perform better and how I need to understand and be flexible with other members on the staff.
Programme #3
“From start to finish I found the course excellent; Declan brought a modern and exciting approach to coaching with excellent material including both theory and practical examples. I look forward to working with Declan again in the near future.”
