I cannot express enough how transformative and life-changing my experience was attending Kate Marshall's Thrive course. From the very first session, I knew I was in for something special.

Alan McConnell Director of Analytics & Business Systems

Kate's Thrive program transformed my approach to education and training, benefiting both my professional and personal life. It sparked a self-development obsession, leading to weight loss and increased activity. This program has significantly enhanced my self-awareness, structure, and confidence. I enthusiastically recommend the Thrive program for those seeking professional improvement.

Michael Hewitt Corvus

As my role transitioned from senior management to genuine leadership, I sought a practical avenue for developing my skills and understanding the unknowns of my new position. Skeptical of traditional qualifications, I aimed for authenticity and tangible, applied learning rather than pure theory. Additionally, I sought to build a network with others on a similar journey.

Phil Clarke Director MCS

Kate made the day great with a well-paced, constructive presentation that was challenging in a good way, including engaging exercises that delved unexpectedly deep into the personal, leaving me with valuable takeaways for future practice.

Paul Pinson

Impressed by your delivery despite travel challenges, I wouldn't have guessed the stress you endured in the past 24 hours. Thank you for staying true to your mission with professionalism and inspiration. Kate is among my top 3 presenters, delivering fabulous sessions. Your awesome effort to be with us is appreciated. Your delivery of clear and timeless messages is truly inspiring. Thank you, Kate, for being an inspiration.

John Watkinson

The hands-on session provided valuable personal insight, leaving me thoughtfully provoked and eager to explore more questions. Kate's inspiring content and fantastic delivery, combined with a well-balanced mix of theory, discussion, and action points, created a smooth and engaging experience. The session, marked by insightful moments, featured a great mix of slides, flip charts, and just the right amount of handouts.

Frank Esson

Really thought provoking session. Promoted self awareness and left with an action plan of how to start making changes in my life and professional career. Came out of the session with a much more balanced and confident outlook and determined to implement some of the learning immediately.

Gary Weston

Kate's excellently run session was truly inspiring, showcasing her authenticity and impactful delivery. As one of the best speakers in my 4 years at Vistage, she engaged the entire group with her personal experiences and life choices. The retreat, marked by outstanding engagement and charisma, highlighted the undeniable appeal of in-person meetings demonstrated by Kate. While some participants suggested more clarity on objectives, Kate's adaptability, warmth, and fluency in running an inspirational day were remarkable. Overall, it was very good and relevant to everybody.
