Executive & Leadership Coaching

1-2-1 or Group Formats

Are you looking to define what type of leader you are?

Struggling with self-doubt?

Looking for that promotion or new job?

Planning how to shift sectors or retire?

Returning to work after time out?

Partnering with a coach can help you gain clarity and determine what you really want for your career. It can also help you to explore what is behind that 'off' feeling or build confidence to go for that role or promotion that you just know you deserve.

My credentials:

I have worked in a Global Pharmaceutical Organisation for 28 years. Moving from the bench through various management roles to where I am now...working a three day week as a Senior Director in R&D responsible for strategic partnerships with globally leading universities. I meet with new people and partner with colleagues at all levels of seniority both internally and externally.  I thrive on building relationships based on a deep understanding of an individual's motivations and desires.

In becoming a coach I have fully recognised how important connecting with others is to me and how I get my personal  energy from  supporting others to achieve their dreams. 

What energises you?

How can you get more of that?

What is getting in the way?

Throughout my career I have experienced many twists and turns; challenging people, tough conversations, massive presentations, personal development challenges, self-doubt, crippling fear. In parallel I have had two children, lost parents, had many miscarriages and taken time out to care for my daughter who has complex Special Educational Needs. I am the primary earner in my family and frequently face assumptions, judgements and questions regarding  the choices I have made. My choices.

 I have often been the only woman in the room.

Even so, I thrive. I own who I am. I bring my whole self to work. I laugh (alot), I cry. I am open. I don't always get it right but by learning more about who I am, I am better equipped to embrace and face any and all challenges with humour and grace.

If you are facing challenges in your career/'work life', If you feel a strong urge for change. I really can help. I promise to meet you with care, empathy and belief.

Individual 1-2-1 coaching is a powerful approach to focus on how you wish to show up and be seen as a leader in your field.

You may be 'stuck' at a certain level of the organisation, feeling strongly that you have a great deal more to give, feeling deeply that you are not being heard or seen.

You may have just begun the next stage in your career. Secured that fantastic role. Congratulations! Yet...yet there is a niggling feeling that you have somehow tricked 'them all' and you will soon be found out.

Through coaching you will identify what really matters to you, those people, beliefs and values that will anchor you when you wobble. You will define the type of leader you want to be, the next role you want to go for. You will identify all of the amazing experience and resources you already have and recognise your own incredible potential.

You will quieten the noise, discover and live your full potential.

I bring a coaching approach to work with groups of leaders and teams often in the Life Sciences Industry leveraging my 28 year career in Pharma.

Topics might include 

• For Teams - Establishing a new team or elevating the performance of an existing team - building trust, identifying and exploiting strengths, defining success, vision and goal setting, surfacing and removing obstacles. Taking action to move towards optimal performance as a team whilst maintaining and celebrating individual difference.
• For Groups - Harnessing the power and experience of group members to enable individual learning and growth. For example a group of new business founders wishing to define their leadership style,  grow confidence and hold onto their North Star as they grow their businesses; a group of women in industry seeking to define their strengths, visualise their career ambitions, build confidence and take intentional steps towards realising their full potential both professionally and personally.
