I can thoroughly recommend Marion Graham as
a learning coach. Marion has worked with the
Agency for several years with many different
groups ranging from the Management Board to
specific work teams. Her contribution always
leads to individuals and teams feeling invigorated,
motivated and positive. Marion's professional
approach involves using novel and intriguing
ways of making people think differently about
challenges and change.

Company Name - Patchwork Theatre
Client Name - Gillian Annetts
Job Title - Artistic Director
Marion has coached me to realise the importance
of 'me' and the need to invest in 'me' - in
fact investing in 'me' is totally acceptable!
My sessions with her have allowed me to recharge
my batteries and take control of my life in
a more positive and forward thinking manner.
Moving out of your comfort zone can at times
be a little unconfortable, but only by taking
these little risks can life become exciting
and refreshing. There are still a few twists
and turns, but I am starting to meet challenges
head on and actually quite enjoy them!

Company Name - Dream Therapy
Client Name - Scott MacFarlane
Job Title - Director
As the head of a business I find it extremely
challenging to be able to find others who
can help with my own reflection and development.
Through her unique coaching style Marion allowed
me to echo on what is important in my life
and assisted me in developing a framework
for every day life challenges, you know the
stuff that you never get a manual for!! I
was delighted with my coaching which re affirmed
to me it is acceptable to fall off the wagon
now and again, it's just how quickly we get
back on that counts!

Company Name - Scottish Court Service
Client Name - Ann McArdle
Job Title - Sheriff Clerk Depute
When I first met Marion I was immediately
struck by how positive and friendly she was.
First impressions can sometimes be wrong but
with Marion my first impressions of her remain;
she is passionate, compassionate and one of
those people who make a difference and a mark
on your life forever. Marion makes life seem
magical and worth looking forward to. In a
way she fills you with a child-like enthusiasm
for even the mundane things. She coaches you
to take responsibility for yourself, a trait
I think some of us lose as we perhaps rely
too heavily on others for our happiness.

Employment Advisor
Routes to Work
The benefit I received from coaching was that
it allowed me to focus on "me" but
not in a selfish way, it gave me the encouragement
to look at things and see what I hoped to
gain, what road I wanted to travel and that
perhaps the biggest obstacle on that road
was my own doubt and my own uncertainty and
that ultimately I am responsible for my own
future.

Company Name - ScottishPower Learning/
Princes Trust
Client Name - Julie Forsyth
Job Title - Prevocational Programme Coordinator
Marion is a real find! She is one of the very
few people in life who can really relate to
and, more importantly, coach people from all
different walks of life. She is an inspiration
and encourages everyone to live life to the
full, cope with the things you cannot change
and take control of the things you can. Marion
sees the WOW factor in each and every individual
and has the skills to help them to see it
too. She can communicate her message on many
levels enabling individuals previously not
open to the concept of change to assess their
role as an individual and as part of a team.
Marion helps to develop self confidence and
self belief, encouraging her clients to be
proud of the person they have become and the
contribution they can make. An absolute star!

her clients in such a way that they can only
benefit from her coaching style. The world
is a better place for Marion Graham being
