Chris Kenber Business and Career Coach

I approached Chris recently as I had come to a crossroads in my career whereby I was not enjoying what I was doing but wasn't sure what the next step would be.I had a million ideas floating about in my head and it was keeping me up at night!Talking to Chris really helped me to narrow down and determine what my next step would be. Through honest, frank and challenging conversations alongside some great tasks and homework we got there in the end and I now have a renewed sense of direction - one which I was not expecting when we first started working together!I would urge anybody in my situation to speak to Chris. Opening up to someone who is unbiased, willing to listen, and ask the right questions is invaluable.

Chris has helped provide direction as I consider a possible career change. He has taken some very vague ideas I had about possible options and helped me see a clearer picture as to what each of them would entail, as well as providing me with other options to consider too. His guidance has been really helpful in giving me clarity as to what my next steps are likely to be.

Working with Chris has been a transformative experience. He has provided invaluable guidance, helping me discover what is truly important to me both in a career and in my personal life. With his expert advice and techniques for the future, I now feel confident and motivated for the next step in my career path. I am extremely grateful for the direction Chris has given me and can’t recommend him enough.

I was always sceptical of the need for a coach, perhaps it was because I thought my business wasn’t big enough for such things.How wrong was I! Having now spent a year with Chris I really see the value of an ‘outside’ pair of eyes and ears looking into the business. This has definitely been a good investment, and that’s how you need to view it.Our efficiency has improved, relationships within the company have improved. Perhaps most importantly I feel I approach business decisions with a lot more confidence.

Chris has recently helped me plan a switch in careers.I approached him to help me clarify and articulate what my next step looked like and to narrow down my vague ideas of life after my current career. Chris was most accommodating with my schedule and happily agreed to cross-timezone Zoom meetings outside of normal hours. Throughout our three sessions Chris kept me accountable with well thought out homework assignments which had me doing the thinking for myself. During our sessions he would cleverly direct the conversation and ask probing questions many of which I had not thought of or had not clearly thought out prior.Chris' style of coaching is a well tuned balance of gentle but direct questioning coupled with great accountability.I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris and would happily recommend him to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation thinking to themselves what exactly do I want to do next"."

Chris is an excellent coach! He has really helped me find a direction with my career and decide what I want to do next. I approached him as I was at a career crossroads and wanted a complete change in career however had no idea where to start as I had found myself in this position before. Chris is very empathetic and a great listener who over the course of the sessions helped me set goals and find where I wanted to get to. I would highly recommend Chris as a career coach and will definitely go back to him in the future if I need anymore assistance.

Chris listened carefully to my personal circumstances, plans and goals and was able to offer excellent guidance and provide me with tools to make better career decisions. These were useful during the coaching sessions, yet moreover have given me a framework for making future career decisions in an informed and structured manner. Chris challenged me without ever feeling critical and guided me to discover the best course of action for me. Thanks Chris!

Chris has been instrumental in helping me launch my own business over the past few months. His advice, support and coaching has helped me maintain focus on important matters. Chris can also move me past areas where I could easily get distracted and swamped. Our sessions are structured, enjoyableand positive. Most of all, Chris is motivational. I would thoroughly recommend.

Have been working with Chris for a few months and have found it tremendously helpful. Chris has been brilliant at helping me navigate some big decisions and I couldn't recommend him enough if you're looking for balanced, reasoned and non judgemental guidance on your career decisions.

I’m so pleased I decided to invest in some time with Chris. I had achieved what I set out to with my career and had also been having some doubts about what to do next. I was at a point where I needed to stop and reflect, to try work out what the future plan could look like.Getting the experienced external view from Chris was such a worthwhile exercise. Over the course of three sessions, he asked me questions which I simply wouldn’t have asked myself. Committing to three meetings with him also meant that I propelled my own thinking process further, as I had to meet him with some well thought through responses. It focused what had previously been some unstructured and drawn out thinking from myself, into a well considered set of priorities and actions to help me make better, more informed plans. There was a great balance of conversation, reflection and some exercises to get to some elevated thinking which I regard as extremely important output. The process even made me take time out with my wife so we could reset our wider goals, something we just wouldn’t have done if I hadn’t undertaken the guidance of Chris.I’m extremely happy that I took the time to seek the coaching of Chris as it has made me approach my career (and life!) goals in a more balanced and effective way. If you are thinking about it you are half way there, I would recommend you go ahead and start the conversation as it will benefit you longer term.
