“Lenna has a provided a much needed reality check and helped me reset my aspirations and the confidence I have.

“Lenna has been instrumental in guiding the launch of my portfolio career. Her mentorship is characterised by a patient and thoughtful approach, ensuring I got the best possible start in my new career path. Lenna's challenging and inspiring style pushed me to explore my full potential, encouraging growth and self-reflection.”
Gus Morse, International Business Development Manager
“Lenna’s CV was one of three I was sent by a company I was doing non-exec training with to choose a mentor. We weren't able to talk to any of the candidates so I had to use my intuition - I'll be honest it was the professional nosey parker that caught my attention. In 3 sessions I went from being slightly daunted by my new role as NED/Board Advisor to recognising my transferable skills. She was also extremely understanding and supportive of my ADHD.”
Helen Valentino, Director
