Varje session har gett mig inspiration, varit utvecklande och stödjande i mitt förändringsarbete som ledare och människa. Mats har på ett strukturerat sätt och med tydlig empirisk fakta väglett mig i många viktiga frågor. Möten har alltid varit professionellt förberedda och har också innehållit mycket värme och humor. Jag har gått från sessionerna med en "feel-­‐good" känsla och med nya frågor att fundera över. — Delägare, Ernst & Young, Sweden, Inc

Mats har med sin breda bakgrund och erfarenhet, sitt stora engagemang och sin hängivenhet fungerat som en mycket uppskattad coach och bollplank. Programmet har givit mig en verktygslåda för att utvecklas både som person och i nuvarande och framtida yrkesroller” — Kategoriområdeschef, ICA AB “Mats has been a very valuable resource for us in developing our management team. Mats is a very good consultant, he quickly grasps situations and makes a crystal-­‐clear analysis. He has an unusual mix of a sharp brain and humble kindness” — Annika Holmius, Director of HR, East Capital "Having already recruited a strong team, performing at a high level, our challenge was the need for increased leadership capacity. To provide the necessary tools and self-­‐esteem to face this challenge we introduced Mats amongst all our leaders. His program delivered above expectations, not only did we mange to enter the ”larger” organization successfully, we also kept vital processes intact and strengthened our corporate culture with increased job satisfaction as result" — Patric Palm, VD, Hansoft AB “I have had the privilege of being coached by Mats, at a time where I needed to do a difFicult transition in my professional life.

And whether I am successful in the future or not, I will pay him regular visits as an adviser.” — Senior Project Manager, Bain & Co “I came in contact with Mats when I was about to leave my job and was looking not only for a new one, but also, for a change in career path.

Kombinationen av djup människokännedom och "ex-­‐konsultens" strukturerade logik-­‐ och faktabaserade perspektiv i en annars stundtals något "Flummig" värld av coacher är mycket kraftfull. Mats är en mycket bra coach både i med-­‐ och motgång, som gör mitt liv bättre!" — VD, svenskt medtech bolag ”Mats has been a good partner in developing our processes including recruitment and talent inventory.
