WORKING WITH JOHN DRABBLE:

“John has great experience at a senior leadership level. This knowledge for me was important, because that is something I can relate to and it makes him someone whose opinion is valuable. The one common thing about all our sessions is the way they end; with me having a skip in my step, while feeling mentally drained from the intellectual and emotional exertion. For me the key trait John has is his ability to identify a weakness that you are trying to hide or gloss over.
