What people say about working with Cynthia

“Solution Underwriting Agency has worked with Cynthia Mahoney on many levels of our business, her professionalism, candidness and communication style is outstanding. She is prepared to ask the ‘difficult’ questions to get the best outcome for our business. As a result of Cynthia’s facilitation and coaching our teams and leaders are performing at a much higher professional level – we now have a ‘new’ language to identify behaviour and team dynamics that will help us navigate our growing business.

Cynthia has provided the tools we needed to establish our strategy, mission and vison for the future, we truly value her input to our organization and would recommend her services to any business that wants to take their business to the next level. “

– Anita Lane, Co-director and founder, Solution Underwriting Agency

Helped me to really redefine who I was and where I wanted to go

I asked Cynthia to coach me at a time when I was at the cross roads of my journey. It was the very best decision I could have made and without a doubt it helped me to really redefine who I was and where I wanted to go. It also helped me to see myself both through my own eyes and those of others. Her style is friendly and caring and her gentle prodding helps you get the most out of the sessions. Thanks Cynthia for helping me find authentic “me” again.

— Di Bowles, Dairy Farmer, Mead

“Cynthia has always been available and willing to go the extra mile for us. Her content and resources are absolutely outstanding, every principal and skill is backed with science and research. Cynthia’s presentation style is honest and casual and she has an incredible ability to immediately build rapport and trust and to help people be their best. It takes a special person to be able to step into a new team and immediately create an environment of openness and honesty to then equip and upskill in such powerful ways.

Cynthia’s training is now an integral part of our culture and the learnings are not a quick fix, but are helping to grow and develop our organisation to be a better version of itself in a way that we could never have imagined.”

– Tristan Ellett, Customer Relationship Director, BigFish Technology

“Executive Coaching is a delicate balancing act that Cynthia does so well by establishing sound boundaries and a safe environment for each of us to work within. This allowed me to be vulnerable with the confidence that the information was respected and utilised for construction progression. Covid-19 did not impact on the sessions in any way – we got straight online and got on with it. The pre- and post session follow-up that Cynthia provides are invaluable.

I found the time spent working with Cynthia immensely challenging at times but very rewarding. I can highly recommend her as a coach and/or mentor.”

– Miffy Gilbert, CEO, AusBerry Farmers Marketing Group

“I have gained professional and personal insights using Cynthia as a leadership coach. She has a natural style about her, that truly challenges you to reach higher and understand your unrealised potential. The benefit of having Cynthia sit with you to unpack your personal barriers and realise that your own potential is truly within. I recognised where I needed to focus my energy, for my team and for my organisation, to gain greater work satisfaction and identify other opportunities to realise my true leadership style.”

– Lisa Keedle, Executive Officer for Emergency Management, Yarra Ranges Shire

“I sent three of my staff to the Kickstart Your Leadership Program which Cynthia designed and facilitated for the Nursery and Garden Industry Victoria (NGIV). I thought it would be useful because business is first about people. I need my senior staff to have the skills to get the very best from all the people they interact with – their teams, customers and suppliers.

My people returned reinvigorated and excited to try new ideas and I noticed a new buzz –conversations about the strengths of team members, team structure, value of feedback, personality types and the importance of clear standards. This Leadership program is a great initiative bringing together and training current and future leaders of our industry. ”

– David Matthews, CEO Proteaflora
