Feedback from clients

“Diana modeled the values that as a group we agreed were highly significant. She made us feel we were "at promise" and that she cared about us being able to fulfill our promise to be effective with others.”

“ I understand many more things now, including the importance of preparation, the importance of energy levels and the importance of what you are bringing to those in the position of listening to you, and how to do all of this for best effect.”

In one word, Diana is PASSION! I loved how Diana interacted with the group and got everyone involved. She is the most effective and engaging facilitator I have ever worked with. What energy! Incredible! Diana has a superb delivery of moving information. I can "feel" what she says. Awesome connect of Leadership and Art.

“Having the storyboard in my head was the key and gave me the confidence to speak without notes and let me VOICE really speak! …There will be many more occasions when I will need to make an impression - but now I know what I am capable off - all I can say is bring it and a very big big thank you to you! “

Andy Green, Director, Faithful & Gould


Diana has turned my whole public speaking performance around – my confidence has stepped up a level but most importantly Diana taught me and demonstrated to me that my concentration should be on the audience and not myself. I was shown how to talk with passion and purpose, to treat the audience as individuals and to present a structured ‘story’. I would, without hesitation, recommend working with Diana Theodores, no matter what level of skill you have with public speaking.

Over the years I had gone on all the usual courses available but nothing seemed to crack the real issue for me. Diana taught me techniques and more importantly ways to think that I had never come across before…I feel a real change now in how I come across in meetings and presentations.

"Despite having spoken publicly to large audiences on many occasions in the past 20 years, I decided to work with performance coach, Diana Theodores over 2 days to prepare for a major keynote address. I wanted to finally overcome the last self-limiting remnants of nerves and thinking that still have the ability to spoil my time, days before a speaking event.

I enjoy Diana’s style which is direct, vibrant and totally alive. She is the most extraordinary challenger and at the same time, most dedicated champion for her clients, if my experience is anything to go by.

Diana takes no nonsense, yet managed to create trust and credibility with me within minutes. She somehow managed to hold self-belief on my behalf at those moments of real doubt, and pushed me beyond anything I had tried before.
Through our work together I managed finally to understand what really works for me, rather than anyone else, and to use it and more importantly trust it, with great success.

Above all, Diana is kind hearted and human - thank you again."

Diana Theodores brings really vital and contagious energy to her work that makes it virtually impossible not to engage fully in the subject in question.The uniqueness she offers to teams lies in her ability to offer each one of us an irresistible invitation to expand and realise our potential. Diana’s ‘Creative Development for Coaches’ programme at the IMI was a unique and enriching experience.

Working with Diana was extremely helpful. I now have a different impact on meetings and much more inner confidence.
