HOW COACHING WITH ME CAN HELP YOU
​
In a post-pandemic world of economic uncertainty, business leaders need new solutions to meet new challenges. An ability to demonstrate empathy and emotional intelligence, and create psychological safety within teams, are more valued than ever before.
While change can bring opportunity and excitement, it can also be exhausting, disrupt optimal work life balance, and increase the prevalence of 'imposter syndrome' and risk of burn out.
​
That's where my solutions-focused, relational, and systemic approach to coaching can really help.
​
I'm a firm believer in being able to 'bring your whole self to work'. The holistic 3 Cs approach will accelerate your individual effectiveness, enhance your authentic self, and align the personal and professional values that will empower you to thrive.
Clients tell me they gain a deep understanding of what makes them tick, what's getting in their way, and how this all impacts their own behaviour and their relationships with those around them.
With enhanced self-awareness and confidence, combined with newly developed strategies, tools and techniques to overcome barriers, the energy can be focused where it needs to be:
personal and professional growth.

leading through transformational change
The prospect of change impacts people in unique and individual ways, dependent on the meaning they ascribe to it. And research shows round two thirds of humans are resistant to it.
For leaders, the challenge is to be fully aware of their own personal reactions and responses, in order to effectively hold the polarity of views and needs of team members, and all business stakeholders.
These leaders can honour and celebrate the past, whilst moving proactively and collaboratively forward into the future.
Inspiring, authentic leadership empowers teams to co-create transformational change together.
THRIVING UNDER PRESSURE
​
Career success is exhilarating and rewarding. The challenge is sustaining peak performance levels in high pressure environments. Leaders can be at risk of developing unhealthy coping strategies, impacting their professional performance, and personal relationships and wellbeing.
​
Accessing our resilience, and creating productive strategies to enhance balance between high motivation or 'healthy stress' levels, and unproductive, performance-impacting anxiety, is vital.
​
My approach identifying unhelpful cognitive schemes and creating opportunities to bring unconscious characteristics into awareness (eg. source of 'imposter syndrome').
​
Your energy is precious, and deserves precision focus.

career evolution
Michelle Obama said "Success isn't about how your life looks to others. It's about how it feels to you."
I believe we continually evolve as people and professionals, throughout our lives and careers. Gaining clarity about our purpose enables us to create strategies to pivot, reinvent, and re-energise ourselves.
My approach includes understanding what success means to, and why (less obvious than it sounds). We will discover and address self-limiting beliefs and perceived blocks to success, and co-create ways to
overcome them.
Deep self-awareness provides the springboard to long-term professional success in the future, and balanced, resilient personal fulfillment in the present.
