Very informative course I liked the way it was delivered and embedding of the information as it was covered across the week.  Good examples across the board for us to chose which one works for the individual"

A thoroughly enjoyable and thought-provoking session.

Rachel has a very engaging style - interesting and interested. Her depth of knowledge in this area was evident. She was keen for us to share our experiences which meant that we all felt heard and valued. The mix of presentation, discussion and work in small groups meant that our individual learning styles were catered for.

So great to meet and share experiences with so many talented women. Thanks Rachel.

Opened my eyes to greater opportunities and build my confidence to develop my career and skillset.

An excellent trainer, Rachel Holloway with great insight and experience she is happy to share and help nurture others.


Rachel is an enthusiastic and motivational trainer. The content of the course was comprehensive and provided me with valuable insights and tools to help develop my confidence and leadership skills. I would recommend.  Jersey Financial Services Commission

She is able to make dry topics interesting and relevant. Rachel helped the Government of Montenegro develop an impact assessment system that used good practice and was suitable for our needs. Rachel is a great analyst, getting straight to the point and has demonstrated an ability to work well under pressure. She always meets deadlines and is personally committed to fulfil obligations"   Ivan Radulovic, Executive Director

"Our paths crossed paths when I was at the British High Commission in New Delhi, leading work on UK-India partnership on ease of doing business, and Rachel was one of the first representatives of the UK government that we managed to convince to come to India and talk about better regulation to the senior bureaucracy in the Indian government - both at the centre and the states. Given that this was the first assignment that we had agreed to deliver with the Indian government, there was a lot riding on Rachel's work in India. Turns out, we couldn't have asked for a better person to deliver the goods! Rachel is a great listener, is a natural diplomat, and the training that she delivered were grounded in a wide array of international experience that she brought to the table. Rachel has the unique ability of condensing her years of exposure in better regulation into a tailor-fit set of deliverables that the local stakeholder can easily comprehend and execute. She is also very understanding and flexible - I've lost count of the number of times things had gone astray in our schedules, and had to rely on her patience and good mood. I cherish the time I spent working with Rachel. I am sure you'll be in for a similar treat if you get the opportunity too!" Dr Aurodeep Nandi

“Rachel ignites and empowers people to become agents of change, ready to transform themselves, organisational cultures and societies. She worked with UNDP in Montenegro to help us redefine strategic communications, which was very demanding and challenging. However, her energy & enthusiasm, coupled with infinite patience, are a perfect recipe for success. She smoothly facilitated a 3-day workshop with 40 participants, building consensus and commitment to define our vision for the future. Rachel approached this endeavour so diligently and carefully, perfectly planned every step and envisaged all obstacles that may stand in her way. She steered consultative process to create a set of products that paved the path for our comms: starting from the Communications & Advocacy Action Plan, drafting straplines and key messages, core narrative, monitoring and evaluation plan, etc. This repository became a cornerstone in our communications work and a daily reminder of Rachel’s ability to reconcile diverse opinions & conflicting messages. Having met Rachel and other members of Partners for Reform, through their work on different projects in Montenegro, I would highly recommend them as a great team who can help you become even better!”
