What clients say about Sophia
Consultancy
Lyn Allen [Practice Manager]
"Sophia provided consultancy in the set up of a new Mental Health Service for Karori Medical Centre. Her approach was completely professional and detailed, ensuring that this new service was quickly embedded and available for our patients. Sophia has also provided mentoring and coaching for several staff members through periods of change. I recommend Sophia and her services to any person or company who can see the future but not the way there. Her skills in guiding change are exceptional. "
Executive Coaching
Tania Smith [Head Of Finance at Summerset Group Holdings Ltd]
"I first worked with Sophia when my CE offered coaching to support the ELT leading through a time of change for the organisation. She has also subsequently supported me in a new role in a new organisation. While I had some ideas of what I would like to receive coaching on, I really feel somehow Sophia just knew what I needed, even when I didn’t really know myself. She has an amazing ability to listen, question, and draw out the issues. She offers insights about myself and others which makes sense of situations and put them in perspective. She is very perceptive, both in getting to the crux of an issue and assisting me to understand myself better. Sophia has given me tools and insights that challenge me to think differently and develop myself wholeheartedly, which I continue to apply on a regular basis. She has made me a better leader, manager, partner and parent. I have recommended Sophia to others who have had had similar results and I strongly recommend everyone has a Sophia in their life!"

Nicola Curac [Executive Manager at New Zealand Defence Force]

Sophia’s experience, professionalism, insight, coaching and guidance has helped me in not only a professional way, but also in a personal way, in many other facets of my life. Sophia’s expertise is impressive! Not only a natural-born coach and influencer, she provides an excellent model for how someone at the top of his/her field should look, sound, and relate to others. I strongly recommend Sophia to anyone who wants to unlock more of their career potential. "
Career Transition Coaching
Danielle Campbell [Program Manager at Ministry of Social Development]
"Sophia Weithaler's coaching quite literally changed my life! Thanks to the professional development sessions I had with Sophia, I was able to determine what it was that I wanted to do in my career and achieve and put together a plan for how I would do that. Two years later I am on that path having realised that the goals she helped me set are more than pipedreams, they are achievable and that is exactly what I'm doing today, achieving my career goals with a positive outlook and approach. "
Professional Development Coaching
Steve Sim [Chief Digital Officer at Ministry of Justice]
"I worked with Sophia for a number of months through a time if organisational change, and leading up to a role change. She provided coaching and insight on effective senior interactions, leadership and presentation at board, and a number of other areas to help with confidence and presence, ultimately leading to a successful interview process. I highly recommend her for her insight and her effective mentoring approach."
Personal Coaching
Amber Flynn [Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment]
"I started working with Sophia during the course of a very taxing project. I thought my initial goal was managing stress and burn out, and how to manage an eventual transition. Sophia helped me so much more than that - her coaching has been a transformational experience that has facilitated positive change in all facets of my life. Sophia’s intuitive ability to get to the true core of your concerns and behaviours is incredible. Her supportive and caring approach created a safe environment where I could work through the changes I needed to make. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone who is ready for change and wants to grow on both a personal and professional level."
