DUNCAN PURVIS
Facilitator, Consultant, Coach
"Duncan is a thoughtful, positive and skilled facilitator and coach, who I have been working with on individual and team development for the past year. He is flexible and adaptable and has a vast amount of experience, knowledge and tools to draw upon to get the best out of people. I have learned more about what is important to me as a professional, improved relationships with my colleagues and learned techniques to navigate challenging behaviours/ conversations. All in all, Duncan’s support and expertise has been an invaluable asset to both myself, and the wider team, especially at a time of change and uncertainty."
Programme Manager
"Duncan strikes a brilliant balance with his sessions. He very clearly lives the charity sector and genuinely wants to help.
His pre planning approach was really supportive and clear. We had a clear back and forth and he quickly got the measure of our needs.
The day session he ran was so well received by our leadership team and the board of trustees. The feedback was glowing. The content we gathered was really rich and the follow up notes were really speedy"
CEo, Charity Sector
"Duncan - thank you so much – both for your efficiency in following up and for your skill in keeping us on track last week.
​
You helped us cover a lot of difficult ground in a short space of time – navigating us from theoretical into practical and back with ease – and humour!
Much appreciated by us all and I look forward to taking forward the plans we agreed.”
Philanthropy Advisor
"I loved working with Duncan. I was dreading working on the marketing plan for my company and had been putting it off and off. Duncan coached me through, leaving me positive, energised and, most importantly for me, totally motivated. I went in with a rough idea of what to do, and a resentment at having to do it, I came out with a clear plan, deadlines, and enthusiasm for completing the task. Duncan is such a positive and energising individual. It has been a real pleasure to work with him he has such a lovely way about him, and he really helps you achieve the results you want"
