Some of the great clients we’ve worked with.

“We couldn’t have won our 5 year contract without Alex’s amazing guidance and support, simple as that. She pushed us all out of our comfort zone and encourage us to generate truly innovative, pitch-winning ideas. She honed our message, cut through the fluff and offered amazing clarity and insight when we couldn’t see the wood for the trees. During pitch rehearsals Alex’s feedback proved essential to our success. At the eleventh hour we made huge changes to the structure and flow, and thanks to her honest assessment we nailed it and won.”
— Gabby Cook, Creative Director, BBC Sport

— Dorothy Byrne, Head of News and Current Affairs, Channel 4

Alex and Linda are brilliant facilitators, session planners and creative thinkers. They know 100s of ways to get people to generate new ideas, while ensuring everyone in the group feels valued and is heard. They are able to constantly adapt to changing needs and energy levels, and help to foster a relaxed, positive and creative space. Importantly, they’re also great at pinning people down - so that great ideas turn into plans and action
— Ben Beaumont, Amnesty International
Leading Ideas have the unique ability to take firm control of a room bursting with strong personalities and guide them through the creative process, in the most charming and diplomatic way. Their facilitation helped deliver fantastic creative ideas. The marketing teams have found the experience exciting and hugely rewarding.

Leading Ideas’ coaching was invaluable. They helped us create a focused and inspirational pitch and left us with real confidence when it comes to selling ideas.
