“I lead an organisation with a strong reputation and that is generally recognised as a high performer in every sector metric. I wanted to move on to a new elite standard - a standard not sought within my sector. Floyd has become an integral part of this journey.

 

Floyd brings a challenging approach based on deep insight that forces you to confront every area of complacency. He offers a rare blend of lived experience and deep research allied with a passion for extraordinary levels of clarity. He brings a methodology that is emotionally appealing and professionally stimulating. He leaves no room for average.

 

Floyd is working across our entire organisation. He is a critical friend to our Top Team and is having an astonishing impact. We are revealing our real ambitions, our anxieties and our fears. We are working through these as individuals but also as a team. We are becoming stronger, more resilient and ever more ambitious. We are totally committed to our journey. The rich potential of the most talented team I have ever been a part of is being realised. Compass for Life is engraining into our organisational culture and narrative.

 

We have committed to a long term relationship which will expose nearly 20,000 people in our organisation to Floyd’s passion and drive. I have been leading large complex organisations for 20 years and have never experienced anything with this rigour or impact. It will touch every child in our schools, every person on our payroll and reach out into the communities that we serve.

 

If you really want to explore elite, if you really want to look in the mirror and see the best version of you, if you are really bold enough to start the journey of high challenge and high support then Floyd is your man. He will be your coach, your mentor, your navigator and your agent provocateur. He will help you with the skills you need and he will create the environments to test them. 

 

If you are going through the motions Floyd will call you out. Be very sure that you are really committed to being elite.”
