Damian possesses a sense of openness that in turn helps others open up. Not only is he completely non- judgmental but he is being honest and open about his own experiences and his own path, setting the example of how to let go. Yet he can bring you gently back to track by being truly present. You will have one hour to yourself with someone dedicated to YOU. It is obvious that he is giving his 100% during sessions and his sole goal is to make you move forward. You will feel seen and heard and understood but by someone who wants to see you grow and is not afraid to challenge you or let you sit in your emotional comfort zone.

Leadership coaching with thryvv is so much more than I expected it to be. Through focusing on the present moment of the conversations the coaching relationship itself becomes a big part of the story that makes growth and change happen. It is transformative but also real, personalised, 'for keeps'. Damian the founder of thryvv knows so much and shares that knowledge intuitively within a wonderfully supportive environment.

Companies commonly invest vast sums on a new way of working but do not invest in the journey it will take employees and transition managers to get from point A to B. The Finance Transformation program provided the framework that I needed to feel confident as a champion of change within my organization.
