In my leadership coaching, I don’t follow a particular path. It’s all about where you, the client, want to take the conversation and what goals you want to pursue.

If there’s a common theme, it’s the desire to be the best version of yourself. That might sound cheesy to you. But the thing is, a lot of people I work with either feel stuck or feel like they can’t be themselves at work.

That’s what it comes down to. The inability to just be and do their best. And out of that comes this desire to be better – which could stand for happier, more loving, etc.

Leadership coaching is not career counselling. In fact, it doesn’t give any advice at all. It’s up to you, the client, to find the answers that work for you. It’s up to you to come to conclusions, to gain new insights, to see what may have been there all along but you couldn’t see on your own.

Your coach is your facilitator or, as many like to say, your thinking partner. I once heard an experienced coach say that the client pays them to let them think. And although it sounded strange at first, it makes perfect sense.

When you have someone’s full attention for an hour, when you can freely articulate your thoughts and say what’s on your mind, it can be very transformative. And I think there’s a great need for that these days, because we’re just not used to having deep, long conversations – without being interrupted.

This coaching session can turn into an hour in a state of flow. I say this because many of my clients are surprised when I tell them that we’re coming to the end of the coaching session.

What always happens is a new insight that helps my clients get closer to their goal. It’s always there. And I’m grateful to be able to witness it.

If you’re not quite sure if coaching is right for you, send me message, I’m happy to offer you a taster session.
