Executive coaching services

The most powerful leaders exhibit a strongly developed style and values-driven behaviour.

Work with me to develop your abilities to:

• Navigate challenging situations, dynamics, politics
• Manage conflicts of interests as well as differences in values and styles
• Handle biases and challenging behaviours within the team
• Inspire, engage and motivate your team especially during transformations
• Foster a fresh team culture, build belonging and cultivate equity
• Align cross-cultural teams and disparate groups
• Delegate, coach and empower others

As a leader, you hold power and responsibility. To successfully motivate others and earn their commitment, it is important to demonstrate a clear sense of who you are as a leader to live by your ethics and priorities – essentially one must become a leader ‘worth’ following. I work to support people in defining their own authentic leadership style, and learning to demonstrate it naturally no matter the complexity or challenge they face.

‘A career’ is no longer a one path journey. Life changes constantly, and the most successful and fulfilled of people are those who are intentional about their direction. Reflection and strategic thinking are vital to ensure that the decisions you make are the right ones for you; aligned to your core values but also to fit your stage of life in the most fulfilling way possible.

Work we do together can include:  

• Evaluating your career progression options and paths
• Fine tuning how you position yourself to move in the career direction you want
• Developing yourself to move to the next level
• Exploring and evaluating career pivots, transitions or portfolio career options
• Developing your personal brand, presence and reputation

Does this sound familiar?

It is very common mid-career to find yourself in a period of uncertainty. Anytime between late 30’s and early 50’s you may can find questions arising within you which challenge you to reconsider both goals and trajectory.

The catalyst can be anything.

Maybe you find yourself with a poor boss and no matter how good your influencing skills, the relationship stalls. Perhaps you find yourself no longer aligned with the company you have worked in for many years, and would like to take a redundancy package. Maybe a health scare of some kind or difficulties at home may light the touch paper. Whatever the catalyst, reflection and refocus often surface.

Around this time your inner compass, your own innate talents and needs can become a much bigger driver. I often hear clients say:

“I need to find the environment where I can best apply my unique skills”; “I don’t want to waste my time on politics and blame”; “I have a vision and I would love to turn my passion into work”.

If this is you, let’s work on finding the answers for you.

Some continue in their current work, yet make a shift in attitude, approach and interactions with people and teams. Others make a more dramatic change, moving to a new vocation or perhaps moving to a different sector or industry.

No matter how experienced or successful we are, there is always work to be done to hone our skills. Not least because the demands of our careers shift and change regularly! It is common that the abilities and behaviours which brought us to our role may no longer be enough as we become more senior.

Personal growth & development work can include:

• Developing your executive presence and personal brand
• Strengthening your impact
• Building confidence and resilience
• Managing your inner critic or imposter syndrome
• Improving your communication and presentation skills
• Honing your influencing and aligning skills
• Managing your time and wellbeing

Those who keep working on themselves, who stay open and progressive are not only not outpaced by others, they become the ones setting the pace!
