What to expect through Coaching
Coaching is a personalised journey designed to help you to become unstuck, achieve your goals, and unlock your full potential.

Our supportive and encouraging environment provides a safe space to explore ideas, celebrate successes, and navigate setbacks, empowering you to transform your aspirations into reality.
I am a pragmatic coach and am happy to span the whole of the coaching continuum dictated by the situation in front of me.
The coaching continuum travels from pure coaching at one end, through mentoring to training or teaching at the other end.
Coaching
I was trained in pure coaching, which means asking open questions such as those beginning with, who, what, why, when, how, and then listening deeply to the responses and probing further. This style helps you to be curious and explore your situation using your own innate wisdom. At this end of the continuum you will be doing most of the talking.
Mentoring
Mentoring, is about offering guidance and support from lived experience and knowledge. The offer of this type of support will always be flagged and your permission gained. Mentoring conversations will have joint contribution from both of us.
Training
And finally, If you don’t know what you don’t know, I love to share a good model to help to train or instruct you with new concepts and learning. At this end of the continuum it is likely that I will be speaking more.
Through a single coaching session we can use one or all of these methods as required. The aim is to move you forward from where you are to where you need or want to be.
Management and Leadership Coaching
Research has shown that the performance of Managers and Leaders makes the biggest difference to employee engagement which is linked to overall company performance.
Management Coaching focuses on improving an individual’s ability to oversee and coordinate tasks, processes, and teams. It emphasizes practical skills such as critical thinking, time management, decision making, and performance monitoring. The goal is to enhance efficiency, productivity, and operational effectiveness.
Leadership Coaching, on the other hand, centres on developing a person’s ability to inspire, influence, and guide others. It emphasizes visionary thinking, emotional intelligence, communication, and the ability to generate a positive and motivating work environment. The aim is to cultivate leaders who can drive change, build strong relationships, and create a compelling vision for the future.
While both types of coaching aim to develop essential professional skills, management coaching is more task-oriented and operational, whereas leadership coaching is more people-oriented and strategic.
Forward thinking organisations also invest in their high potentials or leaders of the future, engaging and retaining their talent pipeline.
