We recognise that we have two clients: organisations with business needs and people who want to develop, be at their best, and excel. Our intent is to deliver powerful results and great value for both clients.
Organisations
If you represent an organisation, you’ll want to know that we seek to understand business needs, test the appropriateness of a coaching-led intervention, and deliver appropriate projects in context, while holding congruent goals for both organisation and individuals. We respond readily to differences in organisation scale, sector, culture, content, and business life stage as well as in business issues to be addressed. We manage the inevitable positives and tensions by being flexible in our approach. Each coaching-led project or coaching assignment is a unique journey to achieve specific goals. In multi-faceted assignments, we draw on our combined business, professional and coaching experiences to add an extra layer of value. We feed back themes from our observations without breaching team or individual confidentiality. And it’s important to us that we build long-term relationships which continue to bring benefit long after a specific project has finished. We make connections across our network, share our learning, serve as a partner and sounding board, and offer insights from across the range of our work.
Teams and Individuals
We work with teams experiencing specific challenges to those seeking strengths-based growth, with issues of Board effectiveness to unleashing personal creativity, with individual transitions to company-wide development programmes. You may initiate coaching to meet a planned organisational need such as strategic change or major project, or for a specific or sudden requirement such as unexpected role changes or a merger. We work with people who can make a difference, from the Board or Executive committee to business and project teams, from executives and senior managers to high potentials.
As a team or an individual considering coaching, you’ll find that we provide both challenge and support. We don’t have one way of doing things, but draw on a range of approaches and tools right for the situation and for your team or you. We work at several levels: addressing the issues you identify and those that arise during the journey; facilitating your access to greater awareness and insight; and helping you see how to continue the learning. You can expect to gain everything from practical actions to sustainable behavioural changes, and from greater confidence to contentment with who you are and can be.
Our clients best describe the experience of working with us – please see our case studies for examples of what they say.
