How does my coaching work?

The best way to get a feel for my coaching is to read the testimonials down below.

My clients range from senior corporate clients and entrepreneurs already in leadership positions, to high potentials to people starting out or transitioning in their careers.

I have studied leadership and coaching within GE, at Harvard Business School and Ashridge. I am an associate of the Association of Coaching.

Prior to coaching, I led two international businesses, and built teams in multiple locations utilising digital technologies to communicate. I understand how to make this work and enjoy coaching remotely and in person.

My coaching is tailored to you as an individual. I will work with you to understand what's really important to you, and what you would like to achieve. I then work with you as you achieve those goals.

I am a relational coach which in simple terms means I believe change and progress comes from an interaction between two people. We create a virtual, confidential and non judgemental space with you choosing the length and frequency of our sessions.

I will challenge and support you and your team and also help you identify your values, strengths, and best processes. My aim is to increase your self awareness and understand your individual and group patterns of thinking and behaviour, blind spots and opportunities. Everything is geared to enhanced performance for you and your team.

Why The Coach With Purpose?

I will make a difference to you, your team and your business.

I am motivated by your results.

My interest is to work with you to remove the limitations to enhanced performance and long term growth.

Clients describe me as experienced, non - judgemental, empathetic, a good listener, fun and having led a news organisation, good at keeping confidences.

Whilst none of us wanted this current COVID-19 situation, the available technology gives us the opportunity to stay in touch, lead and work together collaboratively. It requires a new set of leadership skills and norms.

As well as business coaching, I have an activity coaching programme: Fit With Purpose fitwithpurpose.com have spent 7 years as the Non-Exec Director of AFC Wimbledon afcwimbledon.co.uk act as a trustee and an advisor to three great charities and mentor younger people at the start of their careers.

Whilst the word 'purpose' has become a bit overused, I was a very early adopter of the concept and through my coaching businesses I have worked with hundreds of people who by understanding what and why they wanted to achieve, have gone on to amazing things, I will tell you about some of them when we speak.
