Leadership coaching
Discover your authentic leadership through thought-provoking conversations and exercises.
What it's about
Most people learn to lead by copying others. That works up to a point, then it starts to feel like a role you're playing. Our coaching starts with you instead: how you think, what you're good at, where you hold back and what your situation actually needs.
The work happens in two ways. Conversations that ask questions you don't usually stop to ask yourself. And exercises, in the session and in your real work, that let you try a different way of leading and see what happens.
What you get from it
Being effective with all kinds of people
Working well with people who think, talk and work differently from you, not just the ones you click with.
Removing what gets in the way
Seeing the habits, assumptions and worries that hold you back, and putting them down.
Experiencing yourself as a leader
Not just knowing what a leader does, but feeling it, and being inspired by who you are.
Creating a bigger context
Seeing beyond your own role and day-to-day tasks, so you can contribute in ways that weren't possible before.
How we work
Individuals

Organisations
Leadership development shaped around your people and what your business needs.
There's no fixed package. Whether it's a few sessions for one person or a programme for a whole team, we agree it with you after the discovery call.
The discovery call
It's free and takes about 30 minutes, by video. We'll ask what's prompting you to look at coaching, what you'd like to be different and who it's for. You can ask us anything.
Afterwards we'll send a short note setting out what we'd suggest and what it would cost. There's no obligation, and we won't chase you.
Coaching is not therapy or counselling, and we can't promise particular outcomes such as a promotion. If something else would help you more, we'll tell you.
Questions
How much does it cost?
Is it online or in person?
Can my employer pay?
Is it confidential?
Can you work with our whole team?
Start with a conversation
A free discovery call, usually about 30 minutes. Tell us what's going on and we'll suggest how we could help. If we're not the right fit, we'll say so.
