Testimonials
What some of my clients have said about working with me
“Rebecca has been instrumental in helping me gain confidence and raise my profile within my organisation. She has a knack for making people feel at ease, leads by example, and is especially skilled at helping people see and make connections. Having worked as an engineering and environmental consultant for over 20 years, she has career experience that puts her in a unique position to understand the coaching needs of people in the consulting business. In 2015 Rebecca was a national finalist in the Westpac Women of Influence Awards for her mentoring and leadership work in support of women in engineering.

“I am happy to recommend Rebecca Jackson as a mentor. I worked with Rebecca for a year, during a time that was both personally and professionally challenging with a lot of uncertainty about my career path. During each session, I would come to Rebecca with a high level of emotion and a challenge that felt enormous and complex. She would guide me in distilling the issue down to its essential elements and developing effective strategies to move forward. In every one of our sessions, she provided clear thinking, intuition, and empathy. Either acting as a sounding board or actively providing advice, Rebecca was instrumental in helping me to navigate challenges and consider my career options. I still use the strategies that I learned in my sessions with Rebecca, so the benefits of our mentoring relationship have continued well beyond the year that we were working together.”
L Nugent, Environmental Consultant, Christchurch
“Rebecca mentored me while we were working together in an engineering and environmental consultancy. I had never been in a formal mentoring situation before but from the very first conversation Rebecca had my trust and I knew we were onto a good thing. Rebecca is considered, empathetic and professional. Her experience is wide ranging and she uses this to demonstrate key ideas. Rebecca never preaches or instructs, she asks the right questions and helps you find your own solutions. Particularly focused on helping women grow in business, Rebecca was deservedly nominated as a finalist in the Westpac Women of Influence Awards for her mentoring and leadership work in support of women in engineering.”
