Marcella, Carmelina, and the Real People Equity team have been a crucial part of helping ScienceAlert.com transition through a recent period of rapid growth, which saw the team double in size in just a matter of months. Like all small businesses moving into the next stage of development, we were experiencing growing pains and struggling to get the original start-up team on the same page. Marcella took the time to really understand our business needs and core values and help us make important decisions about where to focus our energy and how best to move forward.

Marcella’s [RPE’s] Executive Coaching is genuinely the most valuable learning experience I’ve had. Marcella’s empathic and meaningful approach to coaching makes me feel comfortable and confident in my ability to evolve as a person and as a leader. This level of trust is essential for true change and I feel as though I can be open and honest with Marcella and she to me and thus far, the outcome has been overwhelmingly positive. Thank you for your mentorship and guidance and I recommend other executives (with or without mentors/coaches) to find the time to work with Marcella, she really is unique in her approach to leadership and coaching and will no doubt influence a positive change.

On a number of occasions I’ve had the benefit of partnering with Marcella Davis and RPE in my role as CEO of Fantastic Furniture and Group CEO Household Goods - Greenlit Brands.
A major piece of work Marcella facilitated in 2014 for Fantastic Furniture was the complete restructuring and realignment of the HR function, the development of the remuneration and reward program, and the recruitment of C Suite executives (HR Director and CFO). This required many hours of work with the executive leadership team and presentations to the FHL Board. Marcella also worked closely with me on the closure of one our smaller retail businesses, and to her credit the people process was managed without a single issue, again a testament to her level of professionalism. Having worked with many consultants over the years I’ve always found Marcella and her team add immense value, bringing broad strategic thinking and workable solutions that enable management to execute with ease. I’m very comfortable in recommending Marcella and RPE for their professional services, they are real partners with commercial acumen and return on investment is guaranteed.
