Martin Gower

"Martin Gower has worked with Cuno Europe on a number of strategic business initiatives and has been an invaluable contributor to our success. Martin has the ability to quickly understand our various diverse business sectors including Healthcare, Fluid Processing, Food & Beverage and Water group.

 

As a business coach Martin has helped us fine tune our business plans, developed poor performing staff and energize our senior management team. His contribution to our business from day one has been highly professional and an important part of our overall success."

Business development Director
3M/Cuno Europe

"When it was first suggested that mentoring could be a useful tool for me in my highly charged business I was both sceptical and open minded enough to go along with the many personal recommendations of colleagues. It took only 2 sessions to realise that the high value time with Martin Gower was going to be so productive, and it might have been just 1 had I not been so defensive.

Martin opened the door for me to develop skills that I didn't know I had. He distilled years of experience in similar industries and situations into every session. Partly psycho analysing our business strategy at the time and partly working in detail on action plans my company rapidly fulfilled its best potential. I went on to use Martin Gower as a coach for recently promoted line managers, and to inspire senior executives facing specific challenges. The great thing about using Martin was his thoroughly professional approach to my business; it was as if he had been running it for as long as me".
Brod Bass
Managing Director
H. Kuhnke Ltd

"From 1999 to 2003. I was the beneficiary of Martin Gower's extensive coaching and mentoring skills. Due to his wealth of experience gained in a variety of industries there was rarely a challenge Martin had not already faced.

Martin engendered a great team spirit amongst the senior management team and was a strong advocate of an open door policy. He helped break down defensive barriers and encouraged a "can do" philosophy.

Martin also ran several 3 day residential management development courses using a variety of developmental tools including intensive role-playing exercises. His enthusiasm and professionalism left a lasting impression on me whilst his own presentational skills are first class."

Jan Whitaker

"Thanks a million for mentoring me through the Graduate Programme. As a result of your personal encouragement and feedback I have been a more confident individual at home and at work."
"Following some relationship difficulties as a Manager at the BBC I found our mentoring sessions not only lifted my spirits they actually showed me that I was in fact a very capable individual and it was just a mismatch of styles that was causing the problems. I have since been very successful both in my business and personal life."

Bernadette Taylor

"Bernie managed to drill down to the crux of the problem very quickly, and within two sessions had managed to resolve many issues which were blocking my career path, even turning some into opportunities. I have now been promoted to a new job which has opened up even more possibilities than I had ever imagined! She has shown me a way to manage my own career and has advanced my career prospects more quickly than I could have managed alone. An invaluable experience."
