Client satisfaction is key to our success - here's what our client say ...

David Loughenbury

"Dave is an excellent CIO, COO and IT consultant. Fact-based, realistic but ambitious, comfortable with existing and emerging tech. A valuable voice in any senior team, not afraid to challenge the over-optimistic or encourage the uncertain. Track record of coaching colleagues in both technical and leadership behaviours, leaving a network of personal supporters. A pleasure to work with."   John Perks Life Companies Chair – Just Group

"Dave has that rare combination of technical, strategic and interpersonal skills that combine to deliver effective and efficient change and transformation at both a business unit and enterprise level. He has the ability to make the complex seem simple and the cultural awareness to take lead his team through seemingly impossible challenges. Dave is an inclusive yet driven leader who will no doubt outperform expectations in any role he is placed in."   David Wright – CMO

"David delivers every time. Through his combination of interpersonal skills, personal drive and insight he leads his teams to great results. I would hire David again given the opportunity. It was a real pleasure to have him as part of my senior mangement team."   David Rhodes – Business Change Director, Aviva

Andy Ford

"Andy is a very experienced Change professional, who brought a wealth of experience operating at a very senior level to his role at YBS.  Very quickly, he was able to influence the Senior Management Team, and implement improvements to the change function, with the outcome being an enhanced delivery capability.  Andy's previous experience also enabled him to positively influence the process and governance around change initiation and delivery, resulting in a more developed, mature function.  Andy supports challenge (where appropriate) and instils this in his direct reports; he also has a great grasp of business priorities and stakeholder management. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andy, and look forward to working with him again!"   Matt Lee
