Business coaching

I work with the individual in the context of their entrepreneurial business, which inevitably extends into the whole person and the life outside of business. The emphasis is on you showing up as your best in your place of work, which then leads to a greater sense of happiness and balance across your full life. My focus is on people and businesses going through growth and change – and needing to be equipped to face the challenges that this brings and the requirement for almost daily development.

Key areas of coaching:

  • CEOs/MD/Founder/C-suite and SLT members where pace is fast and a need to understand yourself and others is required

  • Stepping into your next phase of leadership and testing yourself with new experiences, discomfort and personal challenges

  • Founders adapting to being CEOs in their growing businesses

  • Succession planning within a business, working with the potential leader-in-waiting

  • The invaluable No 2 in a scaling business is a vital role, which can be an intricate relationship to balance; between a dynamic ideas-driven founder and the rest of the senior team

  • Young leadership teams, being required to take on their roles at speed, often lacking a business area specific mentor or role model

  • Enabling Founders to step away gracefully into another role or out of the business

  • Supporting Founders leading up to and following a business sale as they adapt to life after this particular business

  • Supporting business partners extricating themselves from a partnership

  • ​Extensive knowledge of the commercial and emotional intricacies of family businesses

The best way to explain my approach to coaching is to read through testimonials from people that I have worked with…
