The Team’s Clients – past and present

Throughout their careers, Lead to Succeed team members have a track record of delivering tangible results for a range of organisations – from boutique to Blue Chip – in a wide array of locations and roles.

“Jackie has been an invaluable mentor to me, helping me assess opportunities, evaluate priorities and continually develop my leadership skills. She has a direct approach and one that encourages self-examination, a positive outlook and effective strategic thinking. She is a real agent of change with people and their capabilities very much at the forefront. It has been a strong and effective relationship over several years, greatly benefitting my development and career. It has now expanded to support other members of my senior executive team. Through sharing her knowledge, experience and techniques Jackie’s focus on leadership skills supports my executives through the constant change and challenges they face in their roles.”

Garvin Medera – CEO, Caribbean Airlines

“Jackie has been my leader in a number of companies but more importantly has been my coach and mentor for more than a decade. Jackie has a ‘sixth sense’ when it comes to identifying what people are great at and then building them up to deliver their best work. One of the benefits of working with Jackie is that she’s been there and done it at the most senior level of big companies therefore her coaching and mentorship has deep and rich credibility. The biggest compliment I can pay Jackie is that today I still use her approach to building teams, strategy and focus on execution, I follow the blueprint I took from my time working for Jackie and it works, every time!”

Bill Hutchinson – Director of Consumer, Virgin Media Ireland

“I have really enjoyed working with Jackie. She’s so knowledgeable, has bags of experience and pushes you to think differently. She’s enabled me to question some of the things I do, in a space that feels safe and supportive. She’s challenging, without ever being antagonistic, getting the balance of challenge and support spot on. I have made many changes on the back of my conversations with Jackie, some small tweaks, some bigger changes, and all of them have benefited me positively. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jackie to anyone who wants to improve their leadership skills.”

Zoe Burns-Shore – Director of Customer Experience, Yorkshire Water

“Jackie was engaged to lead and deliver the customer experience as part of Digicel’s multi-million-dollar Fibre-to-the-Home programme in the Caribbean and Bermuda. She was highly successful in delivering results and, impressively, in bringing people with her all the way. She is passionate about working with integrity, strong and effective performance, providing opportunity and realising potential. She helped recruit and develop senior executives and teams within Digicel and her mentoring approach benefitted both the individuals and the organisation. Key to Digicel’s strategy, she and her team left our local teams self-sufficient to run their operations with the benefit of shared learning and expertise.”

Denis O’Brien – Founder & Owner, Digicel Group

“Working with Milly has been the best thing – she is a huge inspiration. Instead of teaching you to act, as many in her profession do, she brings out your authentic voice and enables you to speak from the heart. The transformation is incredible and the process was great fun too!”

Insa Klasing – Company Operations Director, KFC

“Francois was engaged to lead and deliver a merger integration management assignment for Jim Beam Europe. He led the team working on the carve-up acquisition of a substantial part of Allied Domecq in Spain, including leading whiskey, gin and sherry local brands. A big thank you from me for your unstinting work, challenge and help throughout the merger … you have added a great deal of value … and also sensitivity to the softer side of dealing with periods of great change and uncertainty for individuals. I very much hope to work with you again.”

Philip Mills – European MD, Jim Beam
