Speakers: Shuai Yuan, Senior Manager, EY
What was your experience being coached?
Shuai Yuan: Hi, I'm Shuai, a Senior Manager at EY. I recently worked with Victoria as my career coach. And honestly, it's been a really positive experience. Victoria is very easy to talk to and genuinely cares about helping you figure things out. She didn't just give me advice, she listened, asked her questions, and helped me see things from a new perspective. I left each session feeling a bit more confident and clear about my next steps. If you're looking for someone who's supportive and actually gets what you're going through, I definitely recommend Victoria. I'm glad I had the chance to work with her.
How did Victoria help you?
Shuai Yuan: Victoria listened deeply and tailored her approach to my very specific leadership styles and my leadership development goals, making each session feel relevant and personal. She asked thoughtful questions that helped me clarify my priorities and see new possibilities in my career. Her support was practical and encouraging, helping me feel more confident and clear about my next steps. Her style was very warm, empowering and focused on my authentic growth as a leader. I left each session with actionable strategies and a renewed sense of purpose in my professional journey.
How would you describe Victoria's approach in three words?
Shuai Yuan: If I were to describe her approach in three words, I'd say supportive, insightful, and empowering.
What about coaching with Victoria surprised you the most?
Shuai Yuan: Honestly, the biggest surprise was how much clarity I got on my own thoughts. Victoria didn't give me answers, she helped me find them. And once I could hear my own thinking, I started reading the dynamics in meetings and with clients way more accurately.
What makes coaching with Victoria worthwhile?
Shuai Yuan: Victoria helped me get real clarity on my own thinking, so I'm not just reacting, I'm making decisions that fit my goals. Her questions and feedback really helped me see patterns in how I work and interact, making it easier to read the room and handle complex dynamics. Her style is very supportive and honest, so I feel very comfortable opening up and tackling through topics. After each session, I walked away with practical steps, not just theories, so I can see the progress in my day to day work.
