For Your Organisation
Managing talent within organisations has never been more complex or more important. Your organisation needs to develop the people who are essential to your business, support them in that development and help them address issues that may stand in their way. You may also want to provide support for those who move on, and to ease the transition process for both parties. We work closely with our clients to provide bespoke programmes designed to meet a range of such challenges.
Our programmes include coaching for:
- New roles or responsibilities (eg promotion, lateral hire)
- Leadership, motivation, interpersonal skills
- Team/individual performance
- Career management - decision making and choices
- Career transition - clarity in decision making and effective practical tools
- Re-engagement (eg after illness, secondment, maternity)
- Changing unhelpful thoughts, feelings and beliefs to enhance performance
- Sustainable behavioural change
- Developing tools to manage stress and anxiety, improve confidence and self-esteem, address anger issues, improve work relationships, and change unproductive behaviours
For You
You may not have worked with a coach before and are not sure what to expect. So it is important to emphasise that, as well as bringing our business knowledge and professional expertise to our work together, our coaching provides a 'safe', completely confidential and non-judgmental environment for you to explore such dilemmas as:
- A sense of feeling 'stuck' in your career
- Deciding what else you might do - understanding your options
- Clarifying what might be holding you back and how to address this
- Exploring how to progress in your current role or organisation
- Confusion about job search strategies - working with practical tools such as interview skills, networking, CVs and direct approaches to achieve your career goals
- Making good first career decisions - what next after graduation?
- Anxieties and practical solutions around returning to work after a long absence
- Making a success of a new role or responsibility - on promotion or after a job change
- Wanting to get rid of internal limitations and blocks to your performance
- Needing to address confidence issues, anxiety, doubt or other obstacles in your career
- Feeling like an 'impostor' at times
- Wanting to change unhelpful behaviours, work styles or management patterns
- Enhancing your 'people skills' and improving your relationships
- Changing fight, flight or freeze behaviours
We work with you in a supportive and practical way to clarify what you want to achieve and to help you to overcome barriers to success.
Who We Are
and What We Do
Consider us your 'thinking partner'. We listen and understand your perspective, perceptions, values and objectives. We can be practical or strategic. But most of all we aim to open up your thinking. Create new perspectives, help you develop new tools, address things that seem stuck and challenge unhelpful patterns.
At the heart of what we do is professionalism, confidentiality, warmth and creativity. The fact that most of our work comes through personal referrals is, we feel, an endorsement of our approach.
Current Work
We are working with senior executives who are feeling blocked on certain issues. Typically they ask: 'Do I need to change organisations; or change roles; or...?'
They are often aware there's a problem, but not its causes; and not its solution. They don't know who to discuss it with - in its detail and complexity, with honesty and in safety - to get help. Leaders turn to us at these moments.
Our law firm clients are instructing us to work with their partners and associates in career transition.We are helping with their long term career planning and also, crucially, in taking immediate next steps. We provide a safe, confidential place to solve both emotional and practical concerns.
