I have followed, laughed and screamed at Steve Allman's insights for many months (for free) like the rest.  Two weeks ago I invested in a 1 to 1.  Just me, and my challenges.  I got more way more time, and actionable advice than I expected in return for my investment.  I was challenged, AND got some empathy along the way (both were needed).  A number of suggestions have already seen the light of day (well, they became part of a Board paper) and are taking us forward.  If you love the public, no cost, 'LinkedIn Steve Allman', then I urge you to work with the private version of the same person!  It will be worth every penny.

Steve’s training at our away day for The Cowshed Charity was an incredible experience.  

His humour, unique ideas, friendliness, and ability to make us think outside the box left a lasting impact on our team. 

Steve created an enjoyable and inclusive environment that empowered us to embrace our strengths and explore new possibilities. 

We are immensely grateful for his exceptional guidance and highly recommend him for transformative training experiences.

I’d been following Steve Allman on LinkedIn for a while. His posts were funny but also brutally honest about leadership life in a charity. I bit the biscuit and have just completed 6 months coaching. I thought I had a big question about my future - I felt I couldn’t cope being a parent and a charity CEO and was doing neither well. Turns out I needed to address my exceptionally unhealthy work ethic, pace and boundaries. Fast forward 6 months and this so-called biscuit guru has got me to the point where I can mostly coach myself. I’ve also got a stack of practical tools to help me manage myself and others better. The most important lesson though was that you can’t have a home brain and work brain. Something I’d convinced myself was possible. I had not addressed some personal life stuff and it was influencing all my relationships. I was second guessing my own gut instincts and obsessing about the perceived impact on others putting my own feelings, time and happiness last every time. And the harsh reality is that there are those that will take advantage, even in a charity. I never thought I’d have a coach let alone one that made me both laugh and cry in the same hour, Being a CEO can be lonely, the sense of responsibility you have for your team, beneficiaries and community is intense. It’s rare anyone checks in on you. Steve has been in it, seen it all and reads between the lines like no other person can. Having space and time to be listened to, supported and guided is game-changing. To all those charity CEOs or leaders out there, get a Steve. Lucie Muir, CEO, Wildscreen
