Our expertise focuses on developing leaders and scaling organisations. We provide an integrated range of services comprising team and individual coaching, organisational consulting and strategic advice.

Our coaching mindset:
​
Executive Coaching can produce a powerful ongoing dialogue between the client and the coach, developing over time, into a productive thinking partnership. We see coaching as essentially a form of learning. It works most effectively coach and client build clarity about what really matters and confidence about how to address it.
Our coaching approach is based on the Columbia Business School 3C Model. Its empirical and theoretical basis is grounded in neuroscience and adult learning methodologies, specifically, action learning. For us, coaching is a cycle that leads to action, new learning and results.
Clients who come to us value an independent, objective perspective from a supportive and experienced coach, who prioritises the client’s interests and goals. Our approach to coaching is focused on partnering each client in ways that connect with their own thinking.
