What's so important that you have to 100X it?

Richard has the great ability to see through the noise and distortion around a problem and pick out the signal that's hiding underneath. He zeros in very quickly on the heart of an issue and points out what levers can be moved to change things.

As a co-Founder and CEO, I've experienced many shifts since my executive team and I started working with Richard. For example, I've become better at coaching my team and we've become better at avoiding procrastination when it comes to complex and ambiguous initiatives.

I see three distinctive benefits of working with Richard. Firstly, his strong business acumen means that we very quickly zoom in on the key issues. Secondly, the Xquadrant toolbox is very practical and simple and helps accelerate decisions or make management decisions. And thirdly, there's a real focus to move beyond 'an interesting or inspiring conversation' and create real, lasting change.

My work with Richard and Xquadrant has allowed me to get things from the idea stage over the completion line. I've become more conscious of what's holding me back and have become better at prioritising action. I'm less distracted and less stressed. Above all, I think it's my extra confidence that's felt by my team. We now speak the same language: we have the same priorities, the same focus on where we're heading, and how we get there.

Through Richard's support I've become more confident and more assured in the delivery of key strategies. The support is highly customised and I wouldn't get the same level of challenge if I were to have those conversations internally. I'd definitely recommend Xquadrant to anyone who wants to focus on bigger, more strategic issues and have a bigger impact in their role.

My time with Richard for the Leadership Intensive was immensely helpful and insightful. I learned about my tendencies in high stress situations, how to be more liberating in my leadership and how to observe patterns of my behaviour that need work. I’m confident that you will find it equally insightful as well!

The biggest benefit of the coaching programme is that the sessions have helped me think bigger and bolder in how I approach my role and interact with others. There have been many more tactical learnings, which I can use day to day, in terms of being a more effective leader, but this would be the biggest overall benefit.

I would recommend Richard's coaching to anyone in a position of management and/or leadership, especially in high growth, when orchestrating and nurturing the efforts of a team is crucial to its success and sets the foundation of a long-lasting culture.

I had taken on greater responsibility in my role so wanted external counsel to talk through my leadership approach. I was initially hesitant about my ability to open up, but I quickly found myself at ease with Richard. He challenged my thinking, helped me reframe situations, and lifted me up. The answers are always within us but it takes real talent to help pull them out. Richard gave me the tools to equip me for my next level of responsibility: I now feel ready for my next big challenge! I would definitely recommend this process to anyone looking to raise their game and think bigger.

With Richard's help I'm now focusing much more on strategic subjects. I'm much better at saying 'no', having reduced my people-pleasing tendencies, and I'm crystal clear on how I can contribute at the highest possible level.

My work with Xquadrant has helped me quickly grasp the essence of the situation — Richard quickly adds value on different business situations, at a personal or a team level. I also have a better understanding of people and how to get the most out of my team.
