Services
While finding success in their careers, many individuals feel lonely and find themselves lacking an independent sounding board and insightful thought partner who is experienced and capable of understanding them as well as the complexity of their context.
Are you looking to:
-
Assess your long term direction and identify immediate next steps for personal development?
-
Transition successfully into a new, more demanding role with greater responsibilities?
-
Enhance your personal relationship with clients, peers or board members?
-
Manage challenges with greater decisiveness and effectiveness?
-
Gain confidence in taking intuitive action?
Conversations on offer are based on the paradoxical theory of change. We make sustainable change when we become more ourselves, not when we try to be something we are not. The premise is simple, the process is hard.
Through our time together we will work on developing awareness, self-adaptation and compassion as a means to better respond to and interact with the anxiety latent in the developmental process.
Contact
First let's have a no-obligations conversation where I can hear from you and you can ask any questions you may have about our coaching relationship.
Relational fit is crucial in this work and it is my job to ensure you are getting the right support for your context.
During this conversation we will discuss your objectives, the coaching approach and then suggest a tailored programme to suit your specific requirements and preferences. No two people are alike and each coaching relationship is reflective of this.
