Equitable Vision Avis 15

I can't recommend Equitable Coaching highly enough! From the first session, Claire created an environment which was both supportive and challenging. The sessions were tailored to really push my thinking and - without a doubt - they helped me to grow as a leader.
Claire has this amazing ability to listen deeply and to ask the right questions. The coaching was personalised - nothing ever felt generic. I came away with tools and insights that I used constantly in my practice.
Coaching with Claire was genuinely transformative and I would recommend without reservation.

Equitable Coaching delivered a highly engaging and insightful programme that balanced strong subject expertise with practical application. Their facilitation style created a safe but appropriately challenging space, encouraging honest reflection and meaningful discussion across the group.

What stood out most was their ability to connect with participants and translate complex DEI concepts into clear, actionable takeaways. The sessions felt purposeful and well-structured, and the impact was evident in both engagement and ongoing conversations within the team.

A professional, knowledgeable and impactful partner for diversity and inclusion work.

Participating in the Divest Whiteness course was a truly inspiring and energising experience. Claire compassionately guided us through somatic exercises, theoretical analysis, emotional responses and practical planning (with the help of some trusted additional facilitators) so that we could really deepen and also elevate our practice within anti-racism work. There are so many ways to meaningfully and positively contribute to collective liberation and she supported our group to trust that we can play to our individual strengths but also lean on each other while doing so.

I have had the opportunity to see Claire leading on programmes and facilitating discussions. She brings a combination of professionalism, warmth, and intellectual clarity to every space she works in.

Claire has a way of elevating conversations so that what begins as a routine discussion quickly becomes something more thoughtful and forward-looking. She is knowledgeable, articulate, and skilled at engaging people in meaningful dialogue.

From what I have observed, Claire earns trust and respect very quickly and creates an environment where people feel both challenged and supported. Any organisation would benefit enormously from Claire’s insight, leadership, and expertise.

This firm is really good - reliable, trustworthy and very well-informed.
Their coaches have real impact on promotions and accelerate leadership skills - improved line management and supervision, enhanced conflict resolution, help in getting back to values.
They have specialists in racism who are brilliant at helping people understand how strategic approaches can be better.

It is hard to put into words how valuable I found the Divest Whiteness programme with Dr Claire Stewart-Hall. Over the course of half a year, our cohort met once per month, and additionally to hear from or workshop with guest speakers an evening every other month. The programme is expertly put together and facilitated in a way that takes into account various individual thought processes, emotional load, and work between sessions. Claire held our group gently in these spaces, whilst bringing vast amounts of knowledge and expertise, thought provoking exercises and a number of ways to work which suited us individually and as a group. She also challenged our thinking and responses to help us move forward in being truly anti racist. I valued the other cohort members so much too, and as a community I hope we can continue to support each other in continuing this vital work. I’ll never be able to thank you enough, Claire!

I can’t recommend Claire highly enough. Professional yet friendly, knowledgeable and articulate, she lifts every discussion to a place where you feel you’re breaking new ground. Her interpersonal skills are second to none. Having seen Claire in action I can guarantee she quickly gains respect and gets to work. Any institution or organisation, and indeed the wider world, would benefit hugely from her guidance and expertise.

Claire has taken me on a journey of self-discovery. Her expertise, her questions, her listening and her insight have impacted the way I interact with the world. If you want support with working through challenging and enlightening subject matter, you should consider Claire/Equitable Vision.

Working with Dr Claire has been a fantastic experience. As someone with a lot of leadership experience, I found her coaching incredibly valuable in helping me better understand how systemic and instructional oppression can influence the way we think and lead. Her deep expertise in education really comes through in the way she explains things and guides reflection.

She creates a psychologically safe space where you can talk openly, think things through and challenge your own assumptions. What I really appreciated was being able to take what we discussed and actually apply it in my own leadership practice. It helped me notice things I might previously have missed and approach situations in a more thoughtful and inclusive way.

I’d highly recommend Dr Claire to any leader who wants to keep learning, reflecting and growing.

Claire is really inciteful with a range of ideas and well rounded recommendations. Her reliable and supportive approach leading to an equitable environment is exceptional.
She has a vast range of knowledge unsurpassed only by her integrity.

Claire's expertise is in understanding how whiteness sits at the core of systemic racism and that being racialised as white, black or brown is how it is manifested in society. To do this work with integrity you have to have courage, clarity and compassion and Claire has these qualities in abundance. I recommend her highly to white people who really want to walk their talk.

I have been working with Claire for just over a year. She has carefully helped to guide me through racial literacy coaching. She is calm, unhurried and very, very thorough. I naively came to this thinking that I knew where I stood in this journey, I have learned so much about the power of language, of naming things and of knowing that this is where I am today, hopefully tomorrow I will be better. This is the best and longest conversation I have ever had and each time I come away exhausted but with my eyes a little more open.

Claire is a real expert in her field. She shares this knowledge kindly and compassionately, appropriately challenging and supporting to help individuals and organizations to build more equitable Worlds. I love working with Claire and highly recommend her to others.

If you are looking for a reliable company to do diversity, equity and inclusion work, book these people. They are deeply research-informed and have a strong academic background which means their training lands really well with staff.

Our team has benefited from leadership coaching 1:1 also which has been transformative to our team. Claire is an outstanding coach - try and get her to coach you. She is brilliant. Highly recommended.

When I wanted to pursue leadership in education, Claire coached me to ensure that I was not only ready for leadership but also that I could demonstrate my skills and values during the application and interview phases. Equitable coaching is values driven and I was encouraged to really explore my values as an educator and then coached in how to communicate these to my potential empolyers while also confidently showcasing my skills. With Claire's expert coaching, I was successfully appointed as an Assistant Headteacher after my first leadership interview. Then throughout my career as a leader, I have continued to work with Equitable coaching to develop the racial literacy and anti-racist practice in my school. Claire is incredibly knowledgeable and her work with me as an individual as well as her work with my institution has been invaluable. Her values, integrity and transparency makes working with Claire a joy and I am a better leader because of it!
