SERVICES:

1:1 Executive Coaching

I offer a “chemistry” session free of charge to determine suitability and compatibility for both sides before embarking on a new assignment or taking on a new client.

 

Based on the client’s needs, I will recommend and commence a series of coaching sessions. Some clients prefer a tight schedule, perhaps weekly, others prefer bi-weekly or monthly. A typical series is 3 sessions with no expiry. Bulk sessions can be arranged as can a series of sessions over 1, 3 and 6 months.

A typical 1:1 plan might look like:

Overview
 

Pre-session work

  • Agree brief to customise coaching and development plan

  •  Select psychometrics  (TalentSage, 5Step and Tipping Point , Hogan, Strengthsfinder e.g. )

  •  Obtain and review performance reviews/ annual appraisals and any other relevant info 

 

Sessions

  •  De-brief psychometrics, develop sense of self, strengths and areas for development

  • Identify 2-4 key  challenges for coaching  support and leadership development

  • Weave in any 360 feedback, peer or manager, to leadership development plan

  • Provide regular input, support and advice 

  • Review progress against plan and assess next steps 

Themes to include: Leader as Coach, Giving & Receiving Feedback, Developing Personal Brand, Storytelling, Influencing, Inspiring and Motivating Others, Flexing Leadership/Communication Styles, Role-Modeling, Managing Conflict, Networking

I regularly engage in coaching and developing teams. Most recently I have been working with a leading creative advertising agency (10 years old, founder-led business of 100 staff in London plus 10 in NY, on-going) and an economic consulting partnership ( a group of 5-7 partners over several months).
