What clients say about Untapped Potential

★★★★★

I feel incredibly fortunate to have had Charlie’s support as a coach and mentor over the past five years. His guidance has played a hugely important role in shaping not only how I lead, but how I think, reflect, and grow within sport. Charlie has consistently challenged me to raise my standards, encouraged me to step outside of my comfort zone, and supported me through both the highs and the more difficult moments. His ability to balance honesty with encouragement has helped me build confidence, resilience, and clarity in my leadership. As I move into the next phase of my leadership journey, I know I do so with a much stronger foundation because of his influence. The lessons, perspective, and belief he has instilled in me will stay with me, and I’m genuinely grateful for the time, energy, and care he has invested in my development.

“A great coach not only shares knowledge but inspires action, and Charlie excels at this. He holds people accountable in a supportive fashion, encouraging progress without pressure. His integrity, professionalism, and authenticity create a safe space where you are made to feel comfortable being challenged and motivated to improve. From a personal and professional perspective, I have found Charlie to be an exceptional business mentor and coach. Having explored self-development through powerful questioning and reflection, I found his impact on me to be both immediate and lasting. He is highly skilled at breaking down complex problems, making them manageable, and building confidence in those around him. Having spent hours navigating emotional intelligence, psychology safety and imposter syndrome, I found his feedback to be clear, constructive, and intentional. I would argue that what sets Charlie apart is his ability to listen with empathy and criticality. He doesn’t just hear challenges, he takes time to understand them before posing questions that penetrate the barriers created by low self-confidence, failure and rejection towards uncovering solutions that are both practical and empowering. His guidance is never a one-size-fits-all anecdote, instead, he considers the person in front of him and tailors his approach to meeting your challenges. In doing so, I would say that he identifies strengths and addresses your development areas with honesty and respect.”

“Charlie has been providing career coaching and guidance to me for several years now, and the sounding board that he offers is a consistent and safe space that I keep coming back to time and again. My career was at a stalemate and future path uncertain 4 years ago. When I first started working with Charlie, he provided me with the constructive feedback and space to learn for myself that I had been hoping for but not fully realised that I needed until I started seeing the results. I found my spark again, and a renewed drive to develop and work to the best of my ability, all whilst receiving the encouragement, reassurance and honest input that I needed to allow me to reflect and grow into a well-rounded leader. I highly recommend Charlie and am very grateful for all the time and support he has given to me”.
