Profile
Welcome,
I coach people like you to overcome life's stress, confusion and emergencies confidently and skilfully and create an abundance of all good things in your lives - self confidence, fulfiling relationships, rewarding career/business, financial freedom, clarity, focus, purpose, health, fulfilment, love, joy, strength, creativity ...
I'll let one of my clients describe what coaching with me is like:
"Madeleine is an exceptional coach. Over the years I've received coaching from some of the biggest names in NLP, business and personal development. In my estimation she's up there with the big boys.
Very quickly she expanded my thinking way beyond the limits I had set for myself and not only gave me practical step-by-step advice that moved me forward in my career, my business, my personal relationships and my personal development. She also revealed to me the things I was doing in my head that were preventing me from enjoying the success I'd already achieved.
In a very short time, and as a direct result of Madeleine's coaching:
- My confidence soared
- I secured an interview for the job of my dreams
- I got really clear on a part-time business I wanted to build
On top of all this, the process, wisdom and expertise she brought to the coaching allowed me to make changes in myself that deepened my relationship with my girlfriend, improved my interpersonal skills with colleagues at work and most important of all, given me an ongoing realisation that this whole journey is exciting and enjoyable." Ben Green, Manager, Cambridge
Training, Qualifications & Experience
I have successfully coached over a 1100 managers, professionals and business owners (privately and through their companies) during the last 12 years of running a coaching practice, to achieve more wealth, greater self confidence, more rewarding career success and business growth and more fulfilling work and personal relationships. You can see more testimonials in 'Further Information' below.
Professional Life Coach trained by The Coaching Academy (graduated with 'Distinction')
The Coaching Academy courses are approved by the ILM. in the UK. This coaching tool box has given me the skill to guide you through amazing conversations that help you get the awareness, mindset changes, resources and answers you need to over come challenges (whether they be 'good' news ones like a promotion or 'bad' news ones like a divorce) confidently and skilfully and enjoy creating the life you really want. This enables you to move more quickly from stressful problem mode into exciting solution finding.
NLP Master Practitioner and Trainer trained by Topher Morrison on ABNLP approved courses.
This NLP tool box allows me to enrich your coaching programmes by:
giving you tools and techniques you can use for a life time to deal with difficult people and situations in win-win ways; helping you create change more quickly and at the deepest levels; accelerating your personal, career and business success - enabling you to go from strength to strength; making it easier for you to make wise decisions; clearing negative past experiences quickly and building natural self confidence.
Accredited to carryy out FACET5 Personality Profiling - I like to use this FACET5 personality profiling tool to enrich your coaching programmes because it: gives you objective feedback on your strengths as a person and a leader (this builds your confidence); highlights your areas for development that will give you better personal, career and business success; helps you to understand yourself better - taking away stress and confusion; helps us identify the communication skills you need to get the best our of your work and personal relationships with others - especially people who are not like you; gives you insight into what would motivate you in a career so that you can make informed career decisions; and gives you advance information on what an employer might find out about you if they use profiling to help them select candidates - so you can be better prepared for interviews.
Trained in Accelerated Business Growth Coaching by Peter Thomson International
I have been on the Business Link Supplier Brokerage to give business advice and I'm an Enterprising Women business mentor. So if you're wondering whether it's time to go self-employed I can help you make a decision. If you've already used a redundancy package to set up a business I can help you avoid the pitfalls (85% of businesses who don't have a coach go out of business in the first 5 years) and improve your business planning, skills (such as marketing and selling) and your results.
I've had a lot of life experiences (being an un-confident young woman; difficult family events growing up; developing into a confident business woman; divorce; wonderful relationships; bereavement; difficult and fulfiling career changes; setting up a business from scratch; going to live and work abroad and coming back to live in the UK; soul searching; investing in personal development courses such as Anthony Robbins Life Mastery; leadership roles, travelling all over the world; having adventures like learning to SCUBA dive ....). That means I have practical experience of dealing with life's challenges, not just a lot of theory. I can help you because it didn't come naturally to me so I understand better the steps you have to take to transform your life - it's easier for me to see that than someone who has always been naturally confident and successful.
Because I have delivered coaching and training in companies, I know what employers are looking for and so I'm better able to guide you towards career success. At the same time my experience of running my own business has given me a skill set that can easily be transferred to creating a successful career.

Testimonials:
“I had recently been promoted to a management position,
with more responsibility and a bigger team and needed to quickly gain some new
skills and some confidence, as I was feeling rather daunted and realised I
needed time management, influencing, decision making and negotiation skills to
match my new responsibilities. Madeleine gave me some strategies and the
support to implement them effectively, with good insight about my leadership
strengths and how to develop myself.
I now feel skilled at dealing with difficult situations in a busy environment
and achieve more in less time. I also enjoy my social life more because
I'm in control at work. It was really helpful to have private coaching because
I could be totally open and honest and Madeleine tailored the programme to my
needs.” Anne Woods, Catering and Events Manager, Cambridge
“I realised that working in the legal profession requires more than just
knowledge. I wanted to make sure that I developed confidence and skill at
communicating with colleagues and clients, to give me the best possible chance
of progressing in my career. Madeleine shared with me some powerful influencing
techniques that have helped me deal with different personalities, difficult
situations and get the best out of myself and others. Now I feel better
equipped to create great working relationships with colleagues and clients and
I enjoy my work even more.” Andy Carr, Lawyer, Cambridge
"Working with Madeleine has been a truly incredible life changing experience. Madeleine was knowledgeable and with her coaching and support I have been able to transformall aspects of my life within a short space of time. I have gained the
confidence to embark on new business ventures. I look forward to working with
Madeleinein the future." Carla Golding, HR Manager, London
"I highly recommend Madeleine, she has given me my life back! Madeleine has an incredible knack of helping you to get to the issues you need to deal with and then provides fantastic tools to enable you to deal with everything and move on.
I have spent 6 weeks with Madeleine and it is the best value
of both time and money that I have ever spent, so much so that I am now looking
forward to using her again in a professional context. You won't be disappointed if you choose to work with this fantastic lady!" Emma Furness, Business owner, Cambridgeshire
“Madeleine has a holistic approach to coaching in that she offers life and business coaching. This was a particularly helpful combination for me, who needed to deal with and sort out both areas of my life simultaneously – although I didn’t realise it when I started my sessions.Due to her multi-disciplined approach, Madeleine has a better insight into people’s issues and how to help them deal with them. I chose Madeleine as she was recommended to me by another business contact.
At the time I was seeking help to prepare myself for non-executive
directorship interviews – something new to me and which I did not feel very confident
about.
After the first session with Madeleine, I decided to continue as she covered a lot of issues and I realised that she could help me understand myself better and help me to improve my skills in different areas. I knew these would be useful to me in my personal and business life. When working with Madeleine I most enjoyed and benefitted from her objective perspective on issues and her
never ending support.” Trina Hill, Consultant, Cambridgeshire
"I had genuinely convinced myself that I'd prefer a slow and painful death over standing up in public and giving a speech or presentation.
Needless to say, I managed to avoid the situation at all costs.
Madeleine has transformed my life by giving me the personal tools and
confidence to present myself. I've been told that I now need to learn when to
stop. I can honestly give my highest recommendation of Madeleine's coaching and self
confidence building." Pat Spillane, Business Owner, Flying Pixel
"I wanted to leave my job as I felt my career was going nowhere. Madeleine helped me take back control. First we clarified what I really wanted to do. Then, we worked on strategies to build confidence, unlock my creativity and develop leadership and
communication skills. Now I've got a great new job and I honestly believe I
wouldn't have done it half so well without my Life Coach.'"
Joan Herbert, PhD, Business Development Manager, Cambridge
"I consider myself to be a successful, focussed person and resourceful person. I still found I need coaching to achieve my goals. The coaching has helped me to work more
efficiently with other colleagues, manage my time better, deal with difficult
situations confidently, understand others better and deal with stress. The
weekly sessions have helped me to achieve my potential. I would have no
hesitation in recommending Madeleine’s services.
Rebecca Wooderson, Business Owner, Cambridge.
“As a business consultant specialising in helping organisations to make real and sustainable improvements to their business performance, it is essential that I am able to help my clients not just through the process but also through the human side of
change - the anxieties and the pain.
So you might think that I would not need outside help when I was myself faced with difficulties - surely it is a case of "physician, heal thyself"? But sometimes we are too
close to a problem to see it properly - and we need outside help to think through all the challenges and opportunities involved. And that's what your life coaching provided. You have helped me get clarity and focus, to explore options, to make realistic assessments of the situation, and to handle my feelings in a positive way. And you never once told me what to do! In all cases you helped me make decisions for myself. I really would unhesitatingly recommend your work to anyone - and do feel free to pass my contact details to anyone who would like to talk to a client of yours.
Yours sincerely Kate Kelly, Saffron Consulting, Bury St Edmunds
“I’ve always want to improve my presentation skills. I must confess I was sceptical about working with a coach and unsure how it would benefit me. However, I found your approach relaxing, fun and gradually over the weeks my confidence and skill grew.
Instead of dreading standing up in front of a room full of people, I came to
look forward to it. I’ve receive congratulations on my interesting and funny
speeches. I cannot thank you enough for all your help. I would not hesitate to
recommend you to anyone looking for help with their presentation skills or for
that matter, looking for an excellent Life Coach. Graham Abbey, Managing
Director, Factotum Ltd., Newmarket
"The great thing for me was that all the questions I was looking to Madeleine to answer were indeed answered – the even greater thing was the realization that all the answers werewithin me and Madeleine’s ‘just’ helped me look for them at the right place.
After only a few sessions I felt much more confident, happy with whom I was and
where I was heading and more importantly far more resourceful than ever before
in my life.
I especially appreciated the fact, that not only did Madeleine listen to my concerns but more importantly gave me the tools to deal with them without having a mini-breakdown several times a day! I found especially powerful the communication model which helped me understand certain experiences in my past which I didn't know what to make out of and caused me a lot of heartache. Learning about different types of
personality characteristics and understanding what mine was has given me the
confidence to deal with people and situations I would have previously dreaded.
I am at a point in my life when I'm facing the most uncertainty than ever before (about to be made redundant and just came out of a relationship) which for many people would be a very stressful time but thanks to Madeleine I am confident about myself, my skills and abilities. Madeleine's personality test has also highlited areas for
improvement and I am very excited about working on those.
All in all this has been the best investment I've ever made - an investment in myself which I know is paying off already!"
Yvona Brandstatterova, Senior Executive Business Services and Enterprise, Cambridge
“Having been out of the workplace for ten years whilst bringing up my daughter, I was struggling with the prospect of a new career. The coaching I have received from Madeleine has given me more confidence as well as the direction and focus I needed.Madeleine has lots of good advice and strategies on how to communicate better with people whether in the workplace or in personal relationships.”
Sally Overton, Cambridgeshire
"Over the sessions I had with Madeleine I learnt a lot about myself through her personality quiz and a lot about how to manage the challenges I was facing at work.
She was very patient and helped me make a big career decision.
Madeleine is warm, caring and a great listener. I couldn't have made my
decision without her!" Jo Brewin, Teacher, Cambridge
As a Life Coach, Madeleine is vastly experienced, insightful and has a knack of knowing how to get you to achieve your goals. As a trainer she has a wonderful laid back yet commanding style that ensures thorough participation from all delegates. Happy to recommend Madeleine both personally and professionally.Dan Kelly, dk consulting, Norfolk
“Madeleine, thank you for the
Confidence for Women at Work workshop you delivered for our Cambridge
University WISETI scheme which supports women in Science, Technology and
Engineering. You quickly got the delegates engaged in lively discussion and problem solving. You answered their burning questions and helped them understand the key obstacles to building confidence and how they could overcome them. The delegates went away certain of what steps they would take next to improve their professional confidence and career prospects.” Sarah Dickinson, WISETI, Cambridge University
“Recently we invested a large sum of money in a weekend of training by a well-renowned international speaker and trainer. The training was very well received by all those attending.
However, shortly following this we attended the first in a series of four two hour trainings offered by Madeleine Morgan and we were amazed and delighted to find that in those two hours we learnt more than we had learnt in a whole weekend of training. She opened our eyes and our minds to a host of new communication skills and
confidence building ideas and strategies we can use to build our business. Now we can’t wait to continue building our skills as we learn more and more from this uniquely able trainer.”
Professor Peter and Mrs.
Diane Curtis-Prior, Cambridge Health Limited
“I am writing to thank you for the helpful sessions that we have had over the past few months, and for your incisive and professional approach to business and life coaching. I would not have been able to meet the challenges of a sole practitioner during this
time of constant change. I really feel there is hope for women and men
entrepreneurs with people of your calibre out there ready to assist them in
meeting the challenges of an ever bullish market place.” Aisha Khalaf,
Solicitor
“I have enjoyed working with Madeleine – she has provided focus, ideas, structure and achievable action plans to help with my business progression.
Going from corporate life to running my own business was difficult. Helping me
to overcome the obstacles blocking my thought processes, meant I achieved
significant progress in a relatively short period of time, rather than
procrastinating and getting bogged down with trivia.
Madeleine has provided a number of great ideas to enhance my business plan,
drawing on her knowledge and experience. I have also learnt some valuable tips
to enhance my business tool kit through the NLP techniques she uses.
One of the most powerful lessons learnt, is how to deal with difficult people –
an invaluable seminar run by Madeleine. This was thought provoking, structured
and fun!
Working with Madeleine will enhance your business and give you more confidence
to deal with life!” Aegean Thomson, Business Owner and Events Coordinator,
Event Wishes
“Thanks to Madeleine’s coaching over a number of weeks I have more understanding of the value of my services and why I am “worthy” of the fees I charge. Keeping her techniques in mind during conversations regarding my pricing, has empowered me to charge correctly, resulting in almost doubling my predicted income this month.
Thank you, Madeleine (from myself AND the bank balance).” B.R., Business owner
"Talking to Madeleine was a refreshing experience, her ability to make me think outside the box was excellent. I am a successful business owner but I needed more tools to help me earn the income I really wanted from my business. I realised how to make more money out of my experience, knowledge and qualifications in less time. After the session with her, I had clarity and focus of where I wanted to be and an action plan of how I was going to get there.
The penny dropped and all the pieces of the jigsaw fit. Thanks a million."
Satvinder Sokhi, Business Owner
"Working with Madeleine has given me so much more than I could ever have imagined when I committed to the coaching process. She guides, mentors, encourages, motivates, teaches and inspires. She has shown me new ways to strengthen my
marketing messages and come up with countless new ideas to develop my business.
Looking at what I was doing through someone else’s eyes and with her creative
expertise, has put a different spin and focus on where I expend my energies. I
am reaping tremendous benefits. I have more clarity, focus and direction. Her
ideas library knows no bounds. Madeleine imparts all this with great wisdom,
coupled with humour; it’s an enjoyable process and quite addictive!
