Our experience working with the SEVEN team has been excellent. SEVEN is a solutions oriented organisation that bases its recommendations and programmes on deep listening and discovery to understand the key issues and the relevant pathways to transformation at both the individual and organisation level.

It has been a pleasure to work with SEVEN at all stages of the development and delivery of the first Executive Leadership Programme offered by the Law Society Finuas Skillnet Programme – which is now in its third year.
SEVEN delivers excellent reliable programming year on year. Johanna Fullerton and Olivia Rourke lead a team that is responsive, flexible and creative. Our participants consistently report their appreciation of the quality of the programme content, as well as the excellence of the facilitation team.
We partnered with SEVEN so that participants would become more aware of their leadership potential and be empowered and equipped to lead others with confidence. Participants have reported that the leadership work completed with SEVEN has resourced them to bring about real changes in the way they engage with teams, colleagues, managers and their sector.

We engaged with SEVEN in order to provide a distinctive talent experience that is tailored to our leaders and their individual requirements. This was delivered via a collaborative approach between SEVEN and Deloitte that meets both business and individual expectations and promotes a learning culture within our Firm.
Johanna and her team are very professional and credible – they bring a great deal of expertise to projects. They strive to understand our business, our culture and ways of working and that is important to the success of our projects.
We chose to work with SEVEN to support the development of our senior leaders as they progress with the firm and to provide external coaching to support our leaders and our future leaders. The result is that our business is now focused on the developmental needs of leaders and considers how to support progression.

They applied good process and we were impressed with the caliber of their experts.

We partnered with SEVEN on a number of diversity & inclusion initiatives because they are openly recognized as leaders in the field of organisational psychology. SEVEN has worked with a large number of our staff over the years, including at a very senior level. We find their interventions to be very positively received, informed and considered, which is valued very much by our people.
Our goal at the outset of our work with SEVEN was to develop greater support for our senior women in the firm, particularly assisting them as they transition through a maternity leave. Having partnered with SEVEN and seen much change as a result, our senior women feel valued and supported.
These initiatives and resulting changes send a message throughout the firm and to the market, that we understand maternity is a challenge requiring support and careful management to ensure that women’s careers continue to progress.
We find Johanna, Olivia, and the rest of the SEVEN team to be very efficient, trustworthy and dedicated. Working with them always ensures that we deliver to our staff at a very high standard.

I have worked closely with SEVEN to support one of our leadership teams in continuing their development journey as they grow and manage a rapidly expanding business.
Our engagement with SEVEN was a big success with universal positive feedback from the leadership team and a request for a continued relationship so we can keep making progress against our development goals.
I also feel we have strengthened our relationship as a leadership team by having the time and space to spend time identifying what is truly important to us.
The service from SEVEN has always been outstanding. Johanna listens to our observations and what we want to achieve and quickly comes up with a simple yet effective approach to deliver to our needs.
We have seen direct positive change from our work with SEVEN. We identified key priorities and owners for each. We have also agreed how we will deliver against these targets and hold each other accountable – this is a clear change in behavior versus how we have operated in the past.
