Testimonials

I have worked with Nick over the last six months initially to address comments in my annual review but what I got was a much deeper understanding of how to address the symptoms and an increased confidence in myself.

At no stage did I feel Nick just rolled out boilerplate solutions. All suggestions were personalised to me and the points I was looking to address. This just makes it much more understandable and actionable.

If you get the chance to work with Nick, grab it with both hands as you’ll be better in more ways than you thought possible! I can’t recommend him highly enough.


Mike Colato, CFO, Cinven
We have benefited enormously from involving Nick in the recruitment of almost all of a new executive team over the last few years. He took the time to get to know the organisation and the existing leaders and produced insightful, targeted and bespoke leadership profiles of candidates tailored to our requirements. His perspective played a big part in every selection decision, and we have assembled a great leadership team with complementary skills and collegiate behaviours as a result. I would strongly recommend Nick to any organisation recruiting senior leaders - he will help you make the right choice.

Professor Sir Ian Chapman, Chief Executive, UK Atomic Energy Authority
Nick adds a lot of value by avoiding the generic, near-automated assessment traps of other service providers. He sets his assessments in the context of a profound understanding of the search brief and was of tremendous value to us as we looked to appoint a CFO and Board Director. I would recommend Nick without hesitation.

Eoghan O’Lionaird, Chief Executive, Fisher & Sons
I've worked with numerous coaches during my career and had some very positive outcomes but none has really got as close as Nick to helping me fully understand myself, my true inner motivations and how to overcome the various obstacles that they inevitably present. Nick asks questions of you that literally take your breath away - they penetrate the soul!! What develops is a raw honesty that helps you fundamentally re-program your thinking, emotions and behaviour. I would strongly recommend Nick for any senior leader who knows they could achieve more and fulfill their lifetime's ambitions.

Chris Dee, Director of Food and Home, Harrods
I’ve appreciated the work we’ve done together. I find Nick to be insightful: he’s given me a way to think about ‘things’ differently and to think about different things.

Angela Salt, Chief Executive, Girl Guiding
I had coaching with Nick in 2020. Lots of development experiences are positive but I always think the true measure of success is how much of it stays with you into the future. It is amazing how much of what Nick and I discussed comes to mind at different times. It was one of the most insightful and powerful pieces of development I have experienced in my career.

Fiona Wallace, Global HR Director, Cundall

NHC provides fresh perspective to leaders. With over 15 years of assessment experience, Nick is known for unearthing psychological traits which are not immediately forthcoming in interviews or references. He then benchmarks these traits against critical success factors for a role or culture, identified by his clients. This allows him to provide accurate assessments of the benefits and risks of making a hire. Across our projects, Nick’s evocative biographies provide rigorous analysis and profound levels of insight for both clients and candidates.
