"Thank you! This was another great session. I can't remember a similar development activity which delivered so much in just a few hours."
Ian Andrews, Lync Voice Technology Specialist - Public Sector, Microsoft UK Limited
“Microsoft EMEA Dynamics support engineering leadership team had a team building event using Insight as its framework. Through the day we worked together with Susie Harding to really understand our 'colors', our respective values to the team and our ways to communicate with others as a result of our 'colors'. There were quite some 'aha' moments, in particular one member felt more integrated after knowing his 'colors' and the ones of his colleagues. We especially like the 'no right or wrong' approach, the focus on positive aspect and the integration with strength finders & Co. Susie was a great instructor and invaluable to the success of this session. She focussed on the thread, gave good examples to un-clarities and built fun into the diverse exercises. This is clearly one of the most enjoyable and learning team events I have experienced.”
Hua Ren-Mühlfellner, EMEA Dynamics, Microsoft UK Limited
“In the last 10 years I have worked with Susie in a number of businesses and over a series of very varied projects. On every occasion she has made a real difference and had a very positive impact. The current project we are engaged on is to create, drive and implement a clear and consistent communications and events plan. This will ensure we keep the team informed, engaged and motivated in what is a challenging time; she is an important part of my Leadership Team and I would always want her on any team I was leading.”
Terry Smith, Senior Director, Partner Team Unit, Microsoft UK Limited
"Susie Harding brought flair and imagination to our Steering Group workshop. Her natural ability to get on with people, combined with her flexible and responsive approach to delivering what was required were central to the event's success. Her meticulous preparation and general professionalism were commended by all the participants. I would not hesitate to recommend her to other clients.”
Kate Thompson, SSMEI Clyde Project
“Susie Harding and the Red Book Consultancy have really made a difference in the way that our senior executive’s time is used effectively.”
Simon Thompson, Head of Media Relations, Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales
“Susie Harding is like a lightning bolt, she has boundless energy, is scarily efficient, confidential and highly professional yet possesses a tremendous sense of fun and humor. As a client I am made to feel a priority and can rely on her for timely delivery and initiative taking. She can work remotely or as an integral part of the team with a wonderfully natural, easy manner. I can not imagine delivering major projects with out her to keep me on track. Susie has been my “find” as an asset for our company”.
Lisa Jones, Chief Operating Officer, VI International Ltd

David Goodchild, MD (Commercial) & Group Director, Aitchison Raffety
"I have found, in a very short time, Susie's tremendous ability to gather and foster team unity in the midst of difficult times. Her willingness to take the lead in developing and facilitating team events that inspire cohesion and positive spirit is admirable. She has shown me on multiple occassions her skill in enabling healthy and productive discussions at leadership meetings leading to positive outcomes"
Kevin Cavanaugh, Senior HR Manager, Microsoft Ltd.
"I have worked with Susie for over 12 months during which time she has led the Change Management efforts across our business unit. A critical component of Susie's remit was the orchestration of our leadership team in the management and execution of strategic initiatives across the business. Her management of senior business leaders through complex change programmes was of the highest order. Susie's ability to distil complex business problems into actionable workstreams and deliverables was excellent. This resulted in a standard of execution and delivery which was of the highest calibre. In short, a critical member of our leadership team."
Luke Thomas, Director, Business and Marketing - UK Public Sector
