"Steve helped me to move through all that was holding me back from leaving Mars after 22 years to set up on my own doing something which would make me happy, give me with a better work life balance and also provide more money! He challenged me, helped me to understand my transferable skills and career values but most importantly of all with his gentle and supportive style he encouraged me. With his help I could not procrastinate or find reasons NOT to do it, From my first meeting with Steve to the day I left Mars was less than 3 months and in that time I obtained a part time job in a brand new field and developed a plan for my new portfolio career. Steve and SMP Solutions comes highly recommended by me"
