Personal Career Guidance Testimonial, June 2020
Client feedback from a 49-year-old, retiring Police Sergeant
“Lis took me on a journey of exploration, through 1-2-1 phone meetings, email conversations and even being flexible in her approach to arrange a 1-2-1, Covid-19 social distanced meeting. The meetings have proven to be priceless.”
