What is business coaching and how can it benefit me?

Business coaching is a professional relationship where we provide guidance, support, and mentorship to help individuals, teams, or whole departments develop skills and achieve their goals. It can benefit you by providing a fresh perspective, adding new skills to your team, and uncovering current or persistent issues. We help you drill down to the root cause and then through goal setting, provide solutions and strategies to overcome challenges and maximise success.

How does executive leadership coaching differ from other coaching types?

Executive leadership coaching focuses on developing the leadership skills and qualities of executives and high-level managers. It addresses challenges such as strategic decision-making, communication, team building, and personal growth to enhance leadership effectiveness and drive organisational success. It can also be used as personalised problem-solving and a support function for leaders.

What can I expect from a coaching session?

In our coaching sessions, you can expect a confidential and non-judgmental environment where we actively listen, ask thought-provoking questions, and support you. We will help you explore your challenges, set goals, and develop an action plan to move forward.

How long does a typical coaching programme last?

The duration of our programmes can vary depending on your specific needs and goals. Each programme is bespoke, so they can range from a few months to a year or more. We will work with you to determine a timeline that aligns with your objectives, is realistic, and ultimately allows you to achieve your desired progress.

Can coaching really help me achieve my goals?

Yes, coaching can be a powerful tool to help you achieve your goals. It provides structure, accountability, and support to help you stay focused and motivated. Our expertise and experience will guide you through challenges, expand your skills, and unlock your full potential.

Is coaching only for individuals or can it benefit teams as well?

Coaching can benefit both individuals and teams. For instance, senior leadership teams can develop their ability to collaborate, communicate, and perform effectively within a group. It can also help to align teams around common goals, build trust, and develop strategies to work together more effectively.

How do I know if coaching is right for me?

Coaching is beneficial for individuals and organisations seeking personal and professional growth. If you seem to be getting nowhere with the challenges you face, but you are open to self-reflection, committed to making positive changes, and serious about achieving your goals, then coaching can provide valuable guidance and support on your journey

What kind of businesses do you work with?

We work with businesses of all sizes, ranging from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large international companies. Our services are tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual, team, and business, regardless of industry. We have experience working with diverse sectors, including retail, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and education. No matter the size or industry, our focus is on providing valuable coaching and consultancy to help businesses thrive and achieve their desired outcomes.

How do you measure the success of your programmes?

We measure the success of our programmes by evaluating various factors, including goal attainment, client feedback, and observable improvements. We set specific objectives at the beginning of each programme and track progress throughout. Regular assessments, feedback sessions, and milestone reviews help us ensure that you are achieving your desired outcomes and experiencing tangible results.

Are there accreditations or qualifications for your programmes?

Yes, we offer accredited programmes in certain areas. We collaborate with recognised awarding bodies to ensure our programmes meet industry standards and deliver high-quality content. Accreditation provides additional validation and assurance of the value and credibility of our programmes.

How do your programmes work? Are they in-person or online?

Our programmes are designed to be flexible and can be delivered both in-person and online, depending on your preferences and needs. We offer tailored solutions that can be customised to fit your schedule and location. In-person sessions provide a more immersive and interactive experience, while online sessions offer convenience and accessibility, allowing you to participate from anywhere with an internet connection.

Is there a lot of work between meetings?

The amount of work between meetings can vary depending on the specific programme and individual circumstances. Our programmes typically include action steps and exercises to be completed between sessions, to reinforce learning and keep you moving towards your goals. However, we understand that everyone has different commitments, and we strive to strike a balance that aligns with your availability and supports your development effectively.

How regularly do we have to meet?

The frequency of meetings depends on the programme and your unique needs. Our programmes are completely client-driven and tailored to how you like to work. We can set weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly sessions based on your preference. This allows for regular check-ins, progress tracking, and ongoing support. It is important to set a meeting schedule to ensure you are making progress towards your goals.
