Caterina Spiteri
Testimonials
"As Executive General Markets for the Global Markets business, I have been impressed with the service offering from FOVEO. Trini has 30 plus experience in institutional banking and understands the whole banking landscape, including products, customers, risk and compliance. This experience combined with her coaching qualification enables her to provide a tailored program and experience for our colleagues, which is individually designed and aimed at producing results. Two of our colleagues in Markets have recently completed the program and both the results and feedback have been extremely positive. The program aims to shift mindsets by focussing on self-belief and is based on a journey of self-reflection on values and strengths. The outputs brought confidence to colleagues in both the tactical and strategic aspects of their roles.
With her authentic approach and her broad understanding of the finance industry, I would certainly recommend Trini Spiteri as an Executive Coach to other organisations."

"Working with Trini shifted my perspective on “authentic leadership”. She helped me realise that by acknowledging and centering my leadership on my core values, I can contribute and lead in a unique and valuable way. Through a process of identifying the values that energise me; acknowledging the importance those values have played in my past achievements; and understanding how to focus my purpose on those values, I am able to establish my authentic brand of leadership. The sense of control I gained from this shift enhanced my confidence and presence.
The journey with Trini was a joy. Each session was like a conversation with a trusted work colleague who had insights into your workplace. Somehow through those conversations, Trini was able to extract nuggets of information and shine a light on areas I can develop and help me break down my invisible barriers."

“I had the benefit of my company sponsoring executive coaching for the broader leadership team and whilst I had the option to choose between two coaches, after briefly meeting Trini we clicked immediately. Being a senior female in a very male dominated industry, I really wanted an executive coach that would understand some of the unique issues women face in senior roles and provide strategies for how to deal with these. I went into the sessions largely wanting to focus on how to bring my strategy to life (having recently taken on a broader role) but also found the sessions incredibly useful for dealing with tactical issues such as managing people, dealing with conflict/difficult co-workers in senior positions etc. The most valuable piece of the coaching for me was spending time understanding not only how I operate but how the people around me operate and it wasn’t until I understood the latter did I start making headway on some of the issues I was facing. Knowing how to adapt my approach for a different personality was a game changer for me. Highly recommend Trini, particularly anyone in the finance industry given Trini’s background which makes her uniquely placed to understand some of the dynamics at play and how to navigate these challenges.”

“ I thoroughly recommend engaging Caterina for Executive Coaching. Initially I selected Caterina because of the alignment of our respective careers in banking and a strong rapport, but the learnings extended far beyond our similar background. Caterina demonstrates a genuine interest and enthusiasm in coaching and making people better leaders. She appropriately challenged preconceived ideas, and coupled the technical elements of leadership with the more subjective strengths and weaknesses of me as an individual. No question that I materially benefited from the sessions (8 in total) and would recommend if you’re thinking about improving your leadership potential.”
