Clients

I have worked with a large number of clients in both the private and public sectors. I’ve been hired by big listed companies, government departments, start ups and SMEs. I adapt my style according to each client. Here’s some of their feedback: 

 

” … powerful and insightful training in a direct and engaging way. Even after just a few hours, my team were fired up and equipped with lots of new communications tools”

Mark Flanagan, (former) Head of Strategic and Digital Communications, 10 Downing Street

“..it was as if I’d been seeing everything in black and white – and suddenly I could see everything in colour. I could see the potential of what radio could achieve. Scott Solder gave me the single, best piece of advice I have ever been given. I’ve applied it to my TV work, I’ve applied it to my personal life …”

Iain Lee, broadcaster, ‘I’m a Celebrity’ & TalkRADIO, speaking on air in January 2018

“Scott has an incredible way that brings out the best in people and situations. He is incredibly knowledgeable, super bright & yet zero ego. A senior level communicator who has helped our exec team overcome personal & professional blockers”

Lesley Kemp, Head of Learning & Development, Auto Trader PLC

His knowledge of psychological tools and techniques were invaluable in drawing out the nature and purpose of this historic and highly complex organisation. His style of facilitation is professional and energising and he is highly adept at engaging every member of a team whilst maintaining momentum.

This piece of work enabled the leadership team to move forward towards defining its ambitions for the next 15 years.

I highly recommend him to any person, team or organisation looking to articulate clear goals or to be more effective in reaching them.”

Kate Smith, Head of Corporate Strategy & Performance, City of London Corporation

“We valued the independent and challenging perspective Scott brought … and his recommendations for the communications function in implementing [a government department’s] vision and mission. I am grateful for Scott’s consultancy and very much hope to draw on his expertise, reliability, competence, sense of humour and professionalism in future reviews of Government communication departments in Whitehall.”

Michelle Cupples, Deputy Director, Government Communication Service Professional Development, Cabinet Office

” We asked Scott Solder to help the senior partners at our London based investment bank communicate with and serve our clients better. This was not purely altruistic – happy clients mean more fees! Scott gave us a tour de force of human relations and developing client empathy. Highly recommended”
