Trusted by Leaders & Teams
Leaders and teams across industries trust TMS Associates to deliver meaningful change. Here’s what they have to say about their journey with us.
“Toni-Marie and Simon, founders of TMS Associates, both reported directly to me in
previous senior leadership roles where they headed up Learning & Development. Their
combined expertise in coaching, facilitation, and Insights Discovery® consistently delivered
high-impact leadership development across the organisation. I’m now delighted that they
are working with our UK team at EMR supporting them with a suite of engaging
programmes. Their professionalism, warmth, and strategic insight make them a trusted
partner in any leadership journey.”

Tony Crilly
EMR USA
“I’ve worked with Toni-Marie and Simon across two organisations, where they both reported
into me as part of my senior leadership team. Their depth of expertise in strategic L&D,
coaching, and facilitation — particularly through Insights Discovery® and leadership
development — consistently delivered impact across our people agenda. TMS Associates
brings that same credibility, warmth, and professionalism to every programme. I’m delighted
to recommend them.”

Justine Vaughan
Group Chief People Officer
“I’ve had the privilege of working with Toni-Marie and Simon across multiple leadership
development initiatives, including Insights Discovery® and management development
programmes. Their facilitation style is engaging, insightful, and always tailored to the needs of
the team.
More personally, I experienced 12 months of one-to-one coaching with Toni-Marie during a
pivotal career transition — from HR Operations Director to Chief People Officer. That coaching
journey was transformational. It deepened my self-awareness, strengthened my leadership
presence, and helped me shape the leader I am today.
TMS Associates brings together the best of what they both offer: strategic L&D expertise,
powerful coaching, and facilitation that truly shifts mindsets. I’m proud to recommend them.”

Chief People Officer, Mescia

“I’ve known Simon for over 20 years and have seen him evolve into an outstanding facilitator
of Insights Discovery®, profoundly shaping people development across multiple
organisations through his coaching and strategic L&D expertise. I met Toni-Marie in 2020
and have watched her grow into a passionate, energetic facilitator whose coaching brings
clarity and inspiration to those she works with. Together, they bring warmth,
professionalism, and impact to every engagement. TMS Associates also bring a creative and
innovative approach to standard, everyday management and team challenges — helping
organisations move beyond the expected to achieve real change. We’re proud to continue
supporting them with Insights profiles and highly recommend them to any organisation
seeking meaningful development.”
