Executive Coaching
Coaching is confidential and client-focused, enabling senior executives and business owners to openly reflect on their own desired outcomes without the pressure that comes from such a discussion with peers or the Board. With over 500 hours of coaching experience, we have coached public and private sector executives in their professional and personal development.
Example case studies
Case study 1
A senior Finance executive at a FTSE 250 company engaged coaching support to ensure he was able to effectively gain the support of the new CFO. The outcome was that the CFO was quickly made aware of issues that were impacting team morale and performance, so was able to support the executive in introducing the change required.
Case study 2
The UK Managing Director of a global retail company was struggling to get his creative team to deliver his vision. Through coaching, he was able to find a way to solve the issue and get the results he wanted more effectively.
Case study 3
A high-potential public sector individual wanted to ensure she was able to follow the career path she wanted, rather than the traditional one being proposed. Effective coaching enabled her to confidently draw on her network for support and guidance and she received a promotion into the division she had targeted.

Example training courses we offer
Team Development Workshop
Delivered as either one day or two half-day sessions, we look at understanding our ‘blind spots’ – what others see in us that we don’t recognise ourselves. Through facilitated feedback, you and your team will get clarity of expectations and a deeper understanding of what you require of each other. We also use MBTI, a personality-type questionnaire, to delve into personal preferences about ways of working and communicating.
This workshop is suited to any managers and teams who want to open up their communications.
Creating an HR Strategy aligned with your business
Since Dave Ulrich coined the phrase in 1997, ‘business partnering’ and being strategic have been the subject of much debate in HR – mostly about how to do it effectively. Strategy is sometimes overlooked in the rush to create the ‘perfect’ HR model, creating a disconnect from what the business actually needs.
Join other HR professionals and business leaders in this workshop, designed to make you look more closely at your business, future challenges and to understand how to better create and align your strategy.
Back to Business
Returning to work after an extended period away can be difficult, not least because your level of self-confidence may have changed, or you feel left behind by changes in your organisation.
This programme is designed for women returning from maternity leave. Unlike other programmes, the focus is not all about legal rights and what happens if things go wrong. Our focus is on you, your intentions for your career, and giving you the confidence to go back as you mean to go on.
The programme consists of a one-day workshop and three individual coaching sessions.
