Executive Coaching

What’s involved

A trusting relationship

Coaching starts and ends with a trusting, open relationship. We will work together over a number of sessions, depending on what you want to achieve. Being an objective partner means I am fully attentive to you and your needs.

Underpinning beliefs

You naturally are resourceful and likely to have the answers within yourself if you have help to look for them. The outlook you choose affects everything - your beliefs, your thinking, and your actions. Ultimately your outcomes can all be changed by changing your outlook. You have more potential than you have yet realised.

What do I add?

Sometimes, we need an independent voice to get beyond what our friends, family and colleagues see for us. As an experienced coach, I am aware of my own lens on life, notice my own responses to what’s being discussed, and work hard to put these aside so they don’t get in the way of focusing on what you need.

How will we work together

  • Rapport.

    We will start by getting to know each other as a trusting rapport is vital to successful coaching. this will include understanding your personal and work context.

  • Contracting.

    To be effective there needs to be an agreement between us on the purpose of the coaching.. What do you want to achieve? We also need to agree how we will work together and our respective responsibilities, along with those of any sponsor.

  • Exploration & action.

    I'll ask questions - sometimes the ones you're avoiding - to stretch your thinking or to see new perspectives and possibilities. And you’ll come away with do-able actions.

  • Review.

    We will formally review along the way, and at the end of the coaching, to ensure you are on track to achieve your stated goals.

“The session had an incredibly powerful impact on me and gave me lots of food for thought.  There have been a few times in my career where I have had a breakthrough moment of clarity that helped me in my development.  Our discussion on my view of accountability and leadership and how I move from an individualistic view to a shared view was one of those moments. Thank you for helping me achieve that clarity.”
