I worked with Nigel Scott at Baxter during the last six years. Most recently I worked with him on a very large project to improve the return of a key business unit within Baxter. Nigel played a major role in developing and implementing the turnaround strategy for this business. Two key aspects of this initiative were project and change management. Nigel was responsible for leading and coaching multiple teams and team members across Europe, including the core project team and the country commercial teams who were ultimately responsible for delivering significant change around their customers, organisations, processes and systems. I would rate Nigel's capacity to lead change to coach and motivate individuals and teams as very high based on my very close interactions with him. (Baxter Healthcare)

I have been in business 33 years and it was very thought provoking in some things that I have overlooked. The best introductory seminar to business coaching that I have attended. (Priority Newstrade & Mailings, Salisbury re. 6 Steps Seminar)

It opens your eyes and makes you think in many different ways. Everything is achievable as long as you plan and make goals. Thank you for making me positive and looking forward to great things in 2009. (Baskerville Gymnastics and Fitness re. GrowthCLUB 90 day planning workshop)

I have found the course invaluable - my husband remarked that I am now a "Manager" and I feel I and the business can only move on from there. Thanks Nigel. (re. ActionCLUB Group Coaching)

I called upon your consultancy service in August 2006 with a clear brief: analyse our sales and marketing practices and make recommendations as to how we could introduce a methodology that could increase sales to our existing customers as well as generate profitable new business. Our sales and marketing team rigorously applied your processes and recommendations, starting at the beginning of 2007. As a result, both sales and our customer base have significantly increased with no diminution in margins. What is just as significant is the growth in motivation and focus in the sales and marketing department. As the saying goes, 'nothing succeeds like success'. The company investment in your time and expertise has proved very worthwhile. (Translation Management)

We started working with Nigel early in 2008. Our view was that our company was doing well and that we were in possession of a good asset, albeit one that we had to work hard at. Nigel's first action when we started working together was to analyse our net profit trends where he identified a diminishing trend in both our net and gross profit percentages and values. Following this, Nigel helped and taught us strategies to reverse and improve these positions. We have also worked together to establish medium and long term goals, both personally and for our business, including what we need to do to achieve the ultimate goal of selling the business. Working with Nigel has been beneficial and enjoyable, I would have no hesitation in recommending his knowledge and benefits to anyone. (Campak)

Before I started working with Nigel, we relied very much on "gut feel" when making decisions. We had very little transparency into the business - what was working, what wasn't; what was profitable, what wasn't. We now have much more information available to us about the business, so we can quickly assess what is working well and what isn't and decide what changes are needed at the time. This has allowed us to focus more on our profitable activities and waste less time on the unprofitable activities. (Walford Timber)

Since working with Nigel over the past three months, we have improved our way of thinking and our working structure in the business making it more streamlined. We have now seen the need to have documented procedures in place not just for us, but for our staff too. We have also been made more aware of how important it is to keep track of more in-depth everyday financial activities like cash flow and that's not all - the list is endless! Nigel has made us realise that we need to work on our business and not in it as such. We have now allocated the relevant time needed to action our goals and to create lead generations and move our business forward. The results are starting to speak for themselves - thank you Nigel.

In December 2009, Debra D said about ActionCOACH

As can often be the case with a "family" business, which is growing quite rapidly, we found ourselves frustrated with putting in place all the needed processes and measurements to ensure our growth is manageable and sustainable. Nigel has been a brilliant "mediator" keeping us focused and driven in setting achievable goals. Nigel brought a very analytical thought process in helping us interpret our financial results. These exercises were very helpful in setting up our Key Performance indicators and allows us to monitor the progress of our company in a concise and meaningful way, wherever we are in the world! He is a thoughtful, intelligent and objective voice, critical to any entrepreneur committed to sustainable growth. We consider our investment with Nigel both monetarily and in time to be the best move we could have made for the future of our company. (Fabric Architecture)

Our sessions with Nigel Scott from ActionCOACH have been invaluable. He has helped us to clarify our goals, to set targets, to look at ways of increasing our margins, our sales, and to establish systems for testing and measuring different methods of marketing. In all his dealings with us, he has always been professional, approachable, businesslike and friendly. He has encouraged us to set up business systems and generally to organise our business. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who is prepared to put the time and effort into making his coaching worthwhile. (The Healthy House)

We started M.POWER 12 years ago and have fought to survive every year. We've been working with Nigel for the last three months. In that time his input has transformed our business. We'll turnover 250K this year and our action plan and forecasts for next year are to top 400K with an equally impressive effect on our bottom line. I cannot speak highly enough of him or his work.
