Brian Fitzgerald | DCEO, Beacon Hospital

“I engaged Mary to be my executive coach soon after I became the chief executive officer of a large public hospital in Ireland. Mary was instrumental in helping me to understand my own interpersonal skills which enabled me to have the confidence to plan and implement a strategy to build a very effective management team.

Mary was invaluable when I embarked and successfully completed a major organisational change project within the hospital.

Having given 23 years service to the public health system in Ireland, I was approached during the coaching session with Mary to consider a significant role within the private healthcare system.

Again Mary’s career experience provided great insights to enable me to consider the merits of moving to the private sector in order to enhance my professional experience and add to my career progression. “
