Unique Business & Individual Coaching

How are your 90,000 hours going?

You spend about 90,000 hours of your life at work. These hours go quicker than you think. Most people at some point will find themselves feeling stuck at a certain level, unfulfilled in their role, feeling under utilised and wondering why they are not selected for exciting opportunities or promotions. You might feel that your annual appraisal never reflects how hard you have worked.

In my experience, I have seen many talented and hard working people go through this process and become frustrated, demotivated and disillusioned. I’ve seen others create a plan of skills and abilities needed to reach their ideal roles. Over time further opportunities materialised as they invested in their future.

You should always be in a position where you can utilise your natural abilities, be recognised for your contributions by managers/peers and achieve your short and long term career goals.

My Approach to Coaching

My approach to helping you reach your goals and maximise those 90,000 hours, is to provide tailor made coaching sessions that are short, engaging, motivational and easy for you to apply. Applying Knowledge, guidance with Mentoring and using Coaching as the method to help you maximise your natural abilities are my successful approach to ensuring you deliver your career or business goals. I call these the Power of Three. 

Although Coaching is the main ingredient in all my sessions to help you apply your knowledge, overcome obstacles and develop your strengths, applying your new knowledge with the guidance of someone with relevant insights and advice, will propel you more successfully to your goals. You will definitely develop your other life skills through this process and increase your problem-solving capabilities.

Forward Thinking

The most effective approach is to understand your current and future goals and then we can develop a program to help you successfully reach them. I view my sessions as an end-to-end process of motivating, supporting and reinforcing your skills & abilities to help you successfully deliver your goals. I also want you to feel more self-empowered through this process. I offer tailor made coaching programs that cover different stages of employment.

I also specialise in Business coaching, that is not only focused on enhancing individual leadership skills, but will also give you a fresh view on developing strategy, building capabilities and fostering a culture of collective responsibility. This is ideal for both group and individual coaching.

I use The Power of Three in short focused sessions, designed around your objectives, with a support & motivational system to help you apply your skills in your specific environment. These will deliver your goals and help you develop new capabilities.

My Experience & Results

I have a broad spectrum of experience and long track record of high-quality results. Although I left Grammar school without any qualifications, I studied at home, whilst working, and became a qualified Management Accountant. Over 24 years I taught myself how to study effectively and focused on self-development. I utilised my skills, collaborated effectively and led multiple successful functions at a Senior Director level across EMEA in Finance, Marketing, IT and Business Strategy for one of the largest medical companies in the world.

During my career, I coached many colleagues which helped develop them into strong candidates for promotion. Through my coaching techniques, many reached the highest level of management in their function or they gave themselves the opportunity to work across multiple functions and become extremely marketable. Some of my coachees just wanted to develop skills to help them flourish in their roles and become effective in engaging with other functions. My list of coachees includes everyone from post graduate students to Accountants, Marketeers, Senior Managers and Leaders wanting to bring a new level of success in their roles.

Having had different roles at different levels in an organisation with a high expectation, this gave me the insights into how you can thrive and reach your ambitions in any organisation.

I’m extremely passionate about helping people succeed. I’m an official Mentor at Leeds University Business School and Ambassador for Leeds City Enterprises.
