80:20 Performance Solutions Ltd

I first made Toby’s acquaintance professionally about seven years ago and from the outset found him to be extremely reliable with a very honest, straightforward approach to dealing with his clients. His knowledge and expertise have been invaluable to me over the years and we have worked together closely on many occasions.

Our business relationship has developed so that I always know I can approach him for advice and support on any number of issues and that his consultative style will enable him to truly understand what is needed and offer bespoke and intelligent solutions to address those issues.

 I admire his integrity and flexibility, always putting the needs of his clients first, believing that the client relationship is paramount. This is also reflected in his very competitive fee structure. It has been great working with Toby and I trust him completely, knowing that he will always do whatever it takes.

I have utilised the services of 80:20 Performance Solutions numerous occassions over the past 10 years, in a variety of professional capacities. In each instance Toby has provided me with intelligent solutions that were tailored to the situation and environment. He quickly grasps the essence of the problem at hand and has always provided me with sound advice including invaluable open and honest feedback.

I have found working with Toby enjoyable, informative and beneficial for the companies I have been representing as well as for myself on a personal level.

I would not hesitate to recommend Toby to others as he has always put providing good effective solutions ahead of any other considerations and these days that’s a rare thing to find.

Toby has repeatedly demonstrated the capacity to provide valuable insights into development needs and to structure appropriate solutions geared towards achieving positive change. His ability to challenge people whilst maintaining an encouraging style helps people quickly progress beyond their comfort zones.

Having someone on board who can bring a unique perspective to the table has been invaluable.

I first contacted Toby, of 80:20 Performance Solutions, following a referral from an old colleague and friend. In setting up a new division to my business there were numerous difficulties and staff issues to overcome. The impact of a good business aware consultant such as Toby is massive.

I've recommended the services of 80:20 to previous business partners for coaching and training, they've also been impressed by the incisive approach and ability to give clear direction.

I have now worked with Toby on numerous projects and anticipate doing so again in the future.

Gary Roberts, Partner, Cheshire

The training and coaching provided by 80:20 Performance Solutions was a revelation and has allowed us to much better understand how our customers think and respond to the way we structure our services.

The most important thing is that we can apply what we have learned and it makes tangible differences to the bottom line of our businesses. Highly recommended for providing sensible 'out of the box' practical solutions.

Susan O'Neil, Director, Liverpool 

I was looking for someone who could lead the process, assess what was required and I was comfortable working with.

There was ample time made available to get everything out in the open and initial open discussion helped identify the real issues making subsequent exercises more effective. Follow up calls and emails provided good ongoing support.

Gavin Nixon, Head of Quality

I would recommend Toby for his down to earth approach and the ability to completely understand his customer’s requirements.

I found the profiling service cost effective and very detailed.

Melanie Nourse

As I recognised at the time I was very 'stuck' unable to make decisions about my future and had started to think that my career and future prospects had come to an end.I couldn't motivate myself to make take any action as I thought it was all a bit hopeless.

I was fortunate to experience the 1-2-1 new code NLP, I didn't really recognise the immediate benefit but I realise that since then I have had more energy and enthusism for tackling my situation, so much so that I have found a new business partner and am actively working on two potential business ventures.

All supported by a subtle but significant change in my state and attitude.

Thankyou, I really appreciate the extra support that you have given me!

Toby has provided a number of training and coaching workshops for my professional association and each time has managed to illcit rave reviews from attendees. The positive feedback from his workshops has led to us retaining him to deliver a series of sessions to managers.

He has an aptitude for building rapport with his audience and imparting practical skills and techniques and approaches to team performance which are now being put into good use by those same managers in dealing with their teams. If you have performance issues in your team, no matter what the level, Toby will bring fresh approach and expertise that will inevitably lead to improved results and outcomes.
