Coaching
Coaching for people already doing the work
Confidential, one-to-one and team coaching that starts from what you need to change and is structured around reaching it.
What coaching is
A thinking partnership, not advice
Coaching is a structured conversation that helps you think more clearly about a situation you are already in, and then act on it.
A coach does not tell you what to do or supply a template. The value is in the quality of attention, the questions, and the fact that you leave each session having committed to something specific.
Sessions are confidential. What is said in them stays between you and your coach.
Coaching areas
How we work with people
Three areas, each with a different focus.
Executive Coaching
One-to-one work with senior leaders.
Confidential sessions focused on the decisions, relationships and trade-offs a senior role actually involves — not a generic leadership curriculum.
Career Coaching
Direction, transition and progression.
For people at a decision point: changing field, stepping up, or working out what the next stage should look like before committing to it.
Team Coaching
Working with a team as a unit.
Sessions with an intact team on how it works together — communication, decision-making and accountability — rather than coaching members separately.
Who it supports
Who we work with
Senior leaders
People carrying responsibility for decisions, teams and direction, who need a confidential place to think.
Practitioners
Coaches and professionals developing their own practice, including those working towards a qualification.
Organisations
Employers investing in individuals or building internal coaching capability across a team.
Our approach
How an engagement runs
Four stages, from first conversation to review.
Step 1: An initial conversation
We talk through what has prompted you to look for coaching and what you want to be different. There is no obligation at this stage.
Step 2: Agreeing the focus
We set out what the work is for, how many sessions it is likely to take, and how you will know it has been useful.
Step 3: The sessions
Regular, confidential conversations. The agenda is yours; our part is to make the thinking sharper and hold you to what you decide.
Step 4: Reviewing progress
We check the work against what you set out to change, and adjust or close the engagement accordingly.
Enquire
Start with a conversation
Tell us briefly what you are looking for. We will come back to you to arrange an initial conversation — there is no cost or obligation at that stage.
