nLIVEn

As I approach my first anniversary of using nLIVEn’s services, I am very pleased with the level of professionalism of my experience as a client. nLIVEn is a calm yet creative place that I always enjoy coming to.

I had the pleasure of working with Glenn for a couple of months and I noticed an immediate positive impact to the quality of the work he contributed. I hired Glenn to help me fine tune and tweak a book I am in the process of writing. My goal was to work with Glenn on adding some filler content but I quickly realized, thanks to Glenn's knowledge and level of expertise, that there were several key structural points and tools missing from the manuscript which I never would have discovered had it not been for Glenn. Glenn has a very high drive for results. Aside from having a great breadth of knowledge across various problem solving strategies, Glenn's attention to detail has never been compromised. His approach in getting to know his clients on a personal level and his ability to understand the importance of holding his internal and external team members accountable so that timelines are not at risk is what separates Glenn from his competition. He is among the most highly skilled in developing relationships and he takes the time to understand his clients needs and wants. Glenn is an articulate and polished professional and I look forward to working with him again soon!

I was at a point where I did not want to get up in the morning and go to work, which was strange - as it was my own successful business. I had no energy. I was feeling lost.

nLIVEn’s Professional Partnership Program facilitated a lot of reflection, which got me thinking on a more fundamental and philosophical level. We worked on articulating my dreams into a vision - crystallizing what I am really passionate about. It was an evolving process where some of my original dreams were replaced with a bigger vision.

Fast forward a year and I am happier, engaged with my business again and feel lucky to have my business. During the past year Glenn’s guidance was invaluable when I had a number of unexpected issues arise. Tapping into Glenn’s vast knowledge and experience guided me to learn that these issues were actually a blessing in disguise.

I had tried coaching before, which didn’t work as I had no connection to the coach as I did not respect him, and felt it was just a ‘job’ to him. Glenn has a real passion and interest in coaching, which is second to none. This make him a great resource for executives and entrepreneurs.

If you are open minded and know you can’t do it all alone, the brain power and ideas you can get from other people will prove invaluable. If you are not lucky enough to have such people around you and / or you are looking for an independent and objective point of view, Glenn and the team at nLIVEn would be a really valuable addition to your team.

Anyone who is serious about achieving a big scary decision, taking the next step in their business / career or following their passion would benefit from engaging with nLIVEn. Expect gentleness to encourage reflection, but the kind of firmness that doesn’t allow you to cop out when things get difficult or too hard.

Glenn and I first met at Harvard University where we worked together in several small group activities. I was able to observe and learn from his extraordinary capacity to quickly understand concepts and theoretical models, and to translate their essence into very practical business language. His clarity of thinking is amazing and will enrich any conversation. I recently asked Glenn for a "spot coaching session" to help me move on a project for a multinational client I am working with. Thirty minutes invested with Glenn from nLIVEn proved to be extremely powerful!

Prior to working with nLIVEn, I lacked clarity both personally and somewhat from a business perspective in relation to my future aspirations. The 12 month Professional Partnership Program I undertook provided me with clear insights and skills to challenge myself to achieve new heights in my thinking in both areas. A truly inspirational program resulting in the clarity to confidently and actively plan my future pathway forward, particularly over the past 5 years. I’ve since referred a range of CEO / MD colleagues to nLIVEn and have been thrilled to consistently see similar professional outcomes achieved.

Glenn has helped us at Real First Aid cement our vision and strategy moving forward. His technique of helping us work through problems as opposed to giving us the answers, has ensured that we are learning to critically analyse all facets of the business and make the best decisions, even when we are not sitting in front of him.

Glenn has a calm determination that helps him get the very best from the people he coaches. He is patient, objective and wise.

I have known Glenn for over 20 years - we studied a couple of subjects together when I did my MBA at the Melbourne Business School. It was only in the last couple of years that I have engaged Glenn's professional services through nLIVEn. I am really pleased that I have.
Glenn is an excellent listener, with a knack of picking the areas that need drilling into. He is a deep thinker, but very much focused on actionable outcomes. He is very widely read, excellent at taking the best elements of different concepts, and combining them into a practical framework to address the issues at hand.
My first project I brought to Glenn was to help me when I was approached by a headhunter for a role in the UK. He was an excellent sounding board as I worked through my options.
Having just stepped into a CEO role after a 28 year career in one company, I have engaged with Glenn for a 12 month Professional Partnership Program.
As you might have guessed by now, I highly recommend Glenn. He is excellent to work with, professional, and thought provoking.

We recommend working with nLIVEn to build and grow your business. We did the 12 month program and enjoyed the process and felt we achieved our objectives.

I started working with Glenn when I needed to make an important decision regarding my career. I had been invited to become a director and shareholder of the company I work for, as part of the succession planning process, along with transitioning into the Managing Director role.

I knew I needed some independent assistance to work through a process of clearly considering the opportunity, to ensure I consciously made the correct decision.

Glenn took me through the important process of clarifying my vision and values. He ensured everything was covered - from both a personal and a professional perspective.

nLIVEn have a great selection of programs. I was impressed at how I felt the program was so tailored to my requirements. I really enjoyed the personalised one-on-one service nLIVEn offers.

Glenn is a knowledgeable, strategic thinker who can help you get clear on what it is you need to do and then importantly, focus on doing it, even when it stretches you to venture into unfamiliar territory.

To get the most out of working with Glenn you need to be willing to create a clear vision of what you want to achieve. nLIVEn has great tools and masterful techniques to support you to clarify where you want to go. Then, you must be prepared to do the work and deliver on your promises to yourself. With the support and encouragement from nLIVEn, this becomes deeply rewarding as you see your vision through to its fulfilment.

I just wanted to thank you for that beautiful bottle of Moet & Chandon. John and I will save that for a special occasion. It is one of our favourite champagnes that deserves thorough enjoyment.

I also want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your belief in my abilities. You have been able to get me to focus on the business in a way I was to be made believe I couldn’t do. I never thought we were worthy of any award and you have made me think otherwise. I don’t really care if I don’t win because I have a team around me that believe we can and that means so much more to me.

I am so very grateful. I can’t wait to see were we go for 2014/2015 but I believe it will be as exciting and challenging as this year.

I've had the pleasure of getting to know Glenn in 2011, but most importantly, utilizing his service as a career development coach. His unique service has brought clarity to what I want to achieve, both personally and professionally and allowed me to develop a career roadmap, highlighting the various milestones I will cross on my way to achieving these objectives. I would highly recommend Glenn to anyone wanting clarity and guidance in advancing their personal and professional aspirations.

As a small business owner I was referred to Glenn Williams by a mutual acquaintance - having considered using a business coach a number of times in the last few years I was glad to have found someone with such a depth of experience. Glenn has an excellent ability of pulling apart problems and piecing together solutions that otherwise seem somewhat insurmountable!

Glenn combines his diverse commercial experience with an innate ability to coach business people to be the most effective version of themselves they can be. I'll state with conviction, Glenn is Australia's best business coach.

Completing an internship with nLIVEn was a huge opportunity for me. Glenn really takes the time to listen to and consider the different perspectives of his team. He assigns tasks and projects that match the strengths of different people yet stretch and develop their capabilities. Having a professional coach as my manager and mentor certainly fast-tracked my personal and professional development.

Glenn has a wide experience in education, business and life and as a result is well placed to engage, advise and coach people through many and varied circumstances and possibilities. Glenn is a team player and a thinker, with his ideas often coming from outside the box. I can recommend Glenn for his commitment to people and organizations, personal integrity, teamwork and providing leverage and value.

Glenn has a great ability to think outside the square and challenge you to perform well beyond your comfort zone. His sources of information and business contacts enables rapid progress to be made on the chosen projects. A must for anyone wanting more out of life and business.

I have only been working with Glenn from nLIVEn for a month or so and already I have been very impressed with his professionalism and personalised approach.

As a startup business and not having a lot of experience with business planning and strategy, his advice and assistance has been extremely helpful to date and as such I have already referred Glenn onto other contacts of mine which is a testament to the quality of his work.

Glenn has also taken an active interest in helping me grow my business, introducing me to allied service professionals and people within his network, that has already lead to new clients for my business. Working with nLIVEn provides a tangible, measurable return on investment, not just another expense to cover each month.

I will be continuing to use his services moving forward as I believe he will be a great asset to my business.
