Below are the coaching services we offer, along with the benefits
1:1 Executive/Leadership Coaching
Succeeding in leadership is tough right now, where employees are no longer a captive audience and it can feel particularly lonely at the top. Whether you’re looking to create lasting change in your life, manage any big transition, overcome limiting beliefs that are holding you back, build confidence, or pursue a new career entirely, coaching can help. Below are some common outcomes of coaching:
- building connection, trusted relationships and leadership presence
- making time for longer term, strategic thinking
- overcoming limiting beliefs eg. Imposter Syndrome, that can hold us back
- improving self-awareness, performance, and fulfilment
- managing personal energy, and the energy of others too
- transitioning into a new leadership role or building a new business
- Cultivating psychological safety
Group Coaching
Group coaching is experiencing a high level of growth. As the name suggests it involves coaching a group of individuals together, where they share a common interest or experience. This could include those stepping into leadership, looking to develop their career or leading through change. Benefits include:
- increased creativity and innovation through enhanced psychological safety
- improved wellbeing
- a stronger sense of human connection and trust
- higher levels of self-awareness and social awareness
- a culture of honest feedback and vulnerability
- increased staff engagement, loyalty and retention
- improved confidence and resilience
- a more fulfilling workplace where people listen, collaborate and hold one another to account more effectively
Team Coaching
As we continue to adjust to new ways of working, we have an opportunity to rethink how we lead teams back to high performance. For leaders, the need for compassion, authenticity and honesty remains high, but offset against a renewed focus on commitment, individual and shared accountability, and results. Team coaching offers a confidential and thought-provoking learning partnership where the team can:
- Gain insight into their collective strengths, knowledge, interests and blind spots
- Clarify a shared vision for leadership and goals, as well as defining boundaries and roles
- Uncover the invisible systems at play that can entangle and inhibit the team, and build on this awareness to enhance the team’s effectiveness
- Address specific issues that are impacting on the team’s performance and fulfilment
- Enhance the team’s ability to respond effectively to complex challenges and opportunities
Leadership Facilitation
In addition to 1-2-1 and group coaching, we also offer a range of workshops and training programmes, delivered either virtually or in person. These are always facilitated in a coaching style and allow time for individual and collective reflection as well as shared accountability. Below are some of the topics offered, and we can also take a more bespoke approach:
- Creating habits that last
- Building a coaching culture
- Manage your energy, not just your time
- Mental fitness to build resilience
- Courageous conversations
- Cultivating psychological safety
- Harnessing individual and collective strengths
- Aligning individual and organisational values
- Relocating between the U.K and U.S.
