What Working Together Looks Like
Build Trust
Establishing a deep and trusting relationship is fundamental to an effective coaching relationship and almost goes without saying.
Clarify Goals
We get laser focused on what areas you wish to see improvement in, what opportunities we can maximise and where you want to see impact.
Holistic Approach
To help you be a better leader I take a “whole of person” approach. That means learning what motivates you, how your mind ticks, how you can get in your own way, what stresses you and what self-care looks like. I draw from a range of modalities to support you to get fit for leadership.
Measure & Benchmark
We measure where you are currently in your professional and personal life, using evidence-based diagnostic leadership tools and holistic measurement methods which are selected based on your unique journey and needs.
Develop EQ
Great leaders have high EQ. This begins with understanding your self, your natural way of thinking, communicating and behaving; learning tactics to navigate stress; and understanding how to adapt your style to take people on the journey.
