What clients say

"Tricia did an outstanding job in leading the delivery of the Policyholder Communications workstream at Aviva.  Her attention to detail, tenacity, professionalism and strategic input is second to none.  A totally safe pair of hands who I would always make first pick on my team.  Always calm, she is a superb self-manager who adds terrific value and experience to whatever she is involved in.  She is also a great team player and a very supportive colleague."
Andy Locke, now at Rolls-Royce plc.

"Many thanks for all your help, advice and support throughout this project.  We would have struggled to get this far without you; and now have a solid foundation for the rest of our project."
Chris Mawdsley, Chemicals Regulation Directorate.

"Tricia combines creative qualities with pragmatism and common sense.  She has an ability to project manage communications projects in a no-nonsense way that inspires confidence.  She is very calm under fire.  Tricia is that rare creature: a consultant of such quality and loyalty that she becomes a colleague, rather than a contractor"
David Richardson, Serco Local Government.

"I worked with Tricia at Norwich Union (now Aviva) and didn't hesitate to contract her when I needed support developing the website for LINk.  Tricia always delivers excellent work that is extremely well thought through and complete.  She asks intelligent and insightful questions and is a great sounding board. I have no hesitation in recommending her."
Heather Hughes, Sheffield LINk

"Tricia has provided both press and communications support for me.  She is a highly professional and great lady to work with - I have no reservations recommending her."
Fiona Auty, National Physical Laboratory

"In the short time that Tricia worked with the internal communications team at Prudential, she made a positive difference to the team's perception by internal clients, particularly the HR and Finance functions.  Tricia quickly navigated her way around complicated systems and relationships, getting to the heart of the matter and delivering valuable strategic and tactical advice as well as tangible campaigns.  Highly professional, approachable, practical and fun.  Tricia is generous with her knowledge and insights and was a great pleasure to work with."
Cathy Augustine, Prudential

"I have consistently valued Tricia's opinions on matters of communication, both internally and externally, above many others that I have listened to.  In addition to having the all important knack of common sense I have found that she also has the personal communication skills necessary to ensure that I am listening!"
Dr Pelham Hawker, formerly Johnson Matthey plc.

"I asked Tricia to help me both at Glaxo and, more recently, at the Coalition for Medical Progress.  It was a joy to have a consultant who you knew would represent you well with a wide range of key stakeholders.  Tricia took the brief, made its delivery practicable and then did the business.  Much appreciated."
Philip Connolly, now at Merial UK.

"Tricia joined the business at a particularly challenging time.  The business complexity could have been overwhelming but within a short time she was able to grasp the key business challenges and diagnose the communications issues.  She has a pragmatic and realistic approach, which is very effective.  Tricia is not afraid to challenge or ask those difficult questions, however her style is considered and supportive and this enables her to get her point across without creating a difficult situation.  She made strong relationships at every level of the business from the shop floor to senior management by literally working alongside people to understand their issues, perceptions and expectations.  As a result she understood the culture of the business and its key drivers.
Sonia Heaton, formerly Lex AutoLogistics
