Nicole keeps you on track, holds you accountable and is always available as a sounding board when problems arise, as a solo business owner this was invaluable. Nicole is also very well networked, so able to recommend solutions and trusted people to assist with other areas of the business. I highly recommend working with Nicole.

I've had the pleasure of working with Nicole for over 1.5 years, and she has truly changed my life—not just on a business level but personally as well. When you're a small business owner, it’s hard to separate the two, and Nicole understands that balance perfectly. When we first started working together, I didn’t realise how little structure I had in place. Nicole guided me through improving my processes, setting KPIs, and building stronger customer relations.Her knowledge and approachable nature made all the difference. She has a way of helping you figure things out on your own, while providing the right guidance along the way. Thanks to her, my business has transformed, and I’ve grown immensely as a person. I can’t recommend Nicole highly enough!

Working with the ‘always upbeat’ Nicole, is truly rewarding as well as exciting, interesting and fun. It is a pleasure to work with one who knows her business so intimately and who has such passion for all she does. Her energy and enthusiasm never cease to amaze me. She is an outstanding trainer as I evidenced both in the training room and in the brainstorming and perfecting of the storyboards for our training modules.

As an instructor, she ranks amongst the best that I have had the privilege to work alongside, and as a supervisor she commands the respect and love of her subordinates.

Nicole has had a few sessions with us now and we always look forward to her return! She is a breath of fresh air and has really enabled us to step outside of ourselves to reflect on where we are and where we’re going individually and as a team. The personal reflection and group discussions following her sessions have been most enlightening and have actually helped our team come together much better. I would highly recommend Nicole for both Business and Life Coaching capacities as we feel our team has benefited substantially from her skills.

Nicole’s people skills and her ability to provide inputs to project teams are of the highest order, and she always exhibits unquestionable integrity and work ethic, which made for a trusting and highly productive relationship

Nicole is such a talented business coach with a perfect combination of qualities and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is professional, sincere, warm and does an amazing job of listening to you and therefore being able to tailor her coaching services to ensure that you meet the objectives she helps you to define. I have come away from my series of sessions feeling so much lighter, more focused, with some direction and excitement about the path ahead. Thank you Nicole!

I recently worked with Nicole as a coach for my business. Before this I did wonder why people would actually use a business coach, now I know why. Nicole has helped be set goals, stay focused on what needed to be done and kept me on track. Whether a start up or growing business Nicole has a superb skillset to help you on your journey to excellence. It is easy to get overwhelmed when in business but having Nicole allowed me to remove the clutter and stay grounded. Highly recommend Nicole as a business coach at any stage of your business.

Within a very short time of working with Nicole, she had shown herself as an associate of unwaveringly consistent high levels of integrity, discretion and collaboration. Nicole is someone who will always hold a space of respect for those she engages with, whilst being able to hold her boundaries. These attributes are priceless in any organisation.

Prior to my time working with Nicole, I had tried several different business programs that all promised the same result – increased sales. However, when it came to implementing their top technique to achieve sales, I failed miserably every time. Cold calling had never been my area of expertise, this all changed however when I started working with Nicole of Tikumu Consulting. In our regularly sessions, Nicole unpacked the art of discovery of what I either as Chartered Accountant or Business Advisor should be asking prospective client as open ended questions in order that I put them at ease and feel that their problems are not unique but by working together they would come out with both a healthier business but also more fully informed

Now 3 months on from our original coaching session, my mindset towards cold calling has shifted and my approach to undertaking a cold call feels a lot more authentic, which has resulted in an increase in sales turnover.

Throughout the process Nicole was encouraging, patient and always willing to offer alternative approaches to reach an outcome that I was comfortable to adopt.
