Below are just a few of our Testimonials.

"We engaged Enablists to enhance our management of programs and projects. From the beginning, Leah and her team adopted a straightforward, no-nonsense approach, displaying a genuine enthusiasm for supporting us. ​
​Enablists operate on the core belief that a sound PMO should simplify life rather than complicate it. This philosophy was evident in their practical, real-world guidance, moving away from purely academic PMO concepts.​​

​As we collaborated, Leah and her team drew on their extensive experience to identify and address the root causes of our challenges, whether they arose during project execution or in the pre-sales process. Their advice was consistently grounded in real-world applications, which was crucial in solving our problems effectively.​
​​
What set Enablists apart was their commitment to not just offering suggestions but actively working with our team to implement and establish new ways of working. They invested significant effort in ensuring that these new methods were successfully integrated into our daily operations.​​
​
Leah and her team's expertise and practical approach made a noticeable difference in how we managed our portfolio. They provided actionable, realistic solutions that improved our processes and outcomes. I would highly recommend Leah and Enablists for their professionalism, dedication, and pragmatic approach to project management"

"Having worked with Leah previously, Enablists were the ideal organisation to help us through the supplier selection for a new CRM.​​
​​
Leah led us through a detailed and thorough process, challenging our assumed thinking and helping us to arrive at a better result. She bought humour, structure and experience to the project and has gone on to help us with the management of our wider change portfolio.​​
​​
I would have no hesitation recommending Leah and the wider Enablists team to anyone wanting support and guidance through any transformation programme"

"One of the standout aspects of my involvement has been the quality of guest speakers the Chambers bring in. For instance, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Sven Hughes, CEO of Enigma Strategic Communications. His insights into strategic communications have been both enlightening and inspiring, offering new perspectives on how to approach challenges in my own field of communications. Another memorable Executive Roundtable event allowed me to meet Matt Letley, Co-Chair for B Lab’s "B Local Surrey" group, whose passion for fostering responsible business practices resonated with me and many others at the Roundtable. His guidance on how businesses can work towards certification while also strengthening community ties was invaluable. The Executive Roundtable has given me far more than just professional connections—it’s fostered a space where I can exchange ideas, discuss challenges, and celebrate successes with like-minded peers. Surrey Chambers of Commerce is a pivotal organisation in the local business ecosystem, and being a part of it continues to bring me both personal and professional growth." Paul Zimmerman, COO, INV Group.

"This was my 3rd year in succession of attending the BWiS IWD event and I'll keep coming back! The mutual support and advocacy was palpable as you walked into the reception area, and remained throughout the event. Rarely have I heard a panel more authentic and thought-provoking with their personal stories that frankly were at times tough to take in. The food was delicious and the company sparky.”  Anne Schiettecatte, AMCS Performance Consulting Ltd

Our membership of Surrey Chamber of Commerce has been instrumental in the growth of our business. It's opened many doors and so much of our new business can be tied back to a SCC introduction. We recommend joining the chambers to all of our micro/SME clients looking for funding, networking and brand awareness.

"Thanks to Surrey Chambers - and in particular Sarah - we were recently introduced to Tandridge District Council and had the opportunity to deliver a joint AI workshop in partnership with them for local businesses. It’s a great example of the value Surrey Chambers brings through meaningful connections and impact in the community." Billy Clackers, Managing Director at Invotra

"The most interesting and informative networking event I have ever attended in my HR Career. All of the speakers were exceptional - I got so much out of this event.”

Alison Dowds

"Very useful in terms of building relationships with local organisations”

Christopher Gay

“Fantastic event- I felt welcomed as soon as I walked in which was so lovely considering I was the only one from my company and slightly worried about not being able to relate to all the big firms in the room! I felt accepted immediately and the atmosphere throughout the whole event was just lovely. Well done for getting together such an amazing panel- it was incredibly refreshing to have people speak so honestly about their work and why they do it. More than that it was infinitely inspiring and made me realise the power of female leadership to be able to balance compassion with strong will to get things done! Thank you once again- I'm sure everyone in the room felt it was an extremely valuable few hours spent away from their normal lives.”

Frankie Gale

I have only been a member of Surrey Chambers of Commerce for just over a year and I have already made so many new and supportive friendships as well as gained business from members and through referrals. The networking meetings are always professionally run and there are great opportunities to attend industry specific meetings offering advice, training and updates. I’m proud to be part of such a professional organisation.
