I found him to be the most effective and insightful coach that I have worked with. That’s significant, as I have worked with many. His style creates a safe space for sharing deep insights and his thoughtful questioning and follow up notes are catalysts for increased awareness and often jolted me into new and more effective ways of thinking.
I believe the success of this event was influenced by the host, Padraig O’Sullivan. Pod is a refreshing enigma in the corporate world: a brilliantly complex mind coupled with warm, open, humble and enthusiastic curiosity. A paragon for these times.
Padraig is the coach whom any senior executive would benefit from. As a world-class coach, he supports his clients by asking the perfect questions to allow the best answers to reveal themselves. He was the ideal coach to guide me through a significant professional and cultural transition
Having worked with Padraig for 2 years, he has provided invaluable support and guidance. Padraig has never told me what to do, but instead offers a different perspective. He asks the hard questions and helps reframe each situation to uncover the real opportunity for knowledge, organisational development, learning and self-improvement.
He is a true thought leader. I always come away from our time together feeling inspired
Padraig was an outstanding executive coach for me, dare I say, a successful leader but contemplating my own set of key questions & development challenges. We connected easily & focused on the outcomes I was after. He is an incredible listener, highly insightful, honest & experienced in his counsel & coaching. The program was more helpful & defining than I'd imagined.
Padraig understands leadership and understands how people can come together to collectively succeed in the work environment. His powerful insights and logical advice has been of immense benefit to me and the teams I work with.
Padraig has been brilliant in working with several members of our Executive team He is focussed on providing a coaching experience that delivers commercial outcomes which is a real strength. I have experienced coaches in the past that are great for the individual concerned but fail to also deliver company results. He is rather unique.
My time with Pod always takes me one leap forward – He has helped me to lead at scale with an awareness of how best to apply myself to the existing environment whilst also influencing improvements in the environment."
