Do you have formal coach training?
Yes. See my coaching qualifications and education in the about page. Great coaches have extensive training and education and participate in continuous learning to maintain their certifications.
Is there an average duration for coaching?
It is a partnership typically for a defined period of between 6 and 12 months as programmes are personalised to meet the unique needs of the client.
The Intelligent Leadership Executive Coaching Process features 60 to 93+ hours working directly together over a 6 to 12 month period. We engage in the four proven phases of the ILEC process: Awareness; Assessment; Action; and Achievement.
Is there an average duration for projects?
Typically, projects last a minimum of six months, though this varies as I tailor my approach to meet each client's specific needs.
Do you use assessments?
If we are working on the Intelligent Leadership programme, there are on-line inner-core assessments, including the Mattone Leadership Enneagram Inventory (MLEI)®, Input-Output Processing Template (IOPT), and California Psychological Inventory-260 (CPI-260).
Can you provide testimonials?
Yes, testimonials are available upon request. You can find referral testimonials on my LinkedIn page, providing insights into past experiences and results of past collaborations.
How can clients best prepare to work with you?
You should be prepared to engage openly and honestly about your current situation and aspirations. If direction is unclear, we will explore it together. Access to documents on strategy, financial targets, performance insights for the year where relevant.
What are your terms of engagement and payment policies?
I offer bespoke engagement terms for each client dependent on the work undertaken, typically preferring a day rate on a fixed-term basis. Project-based pricing with clear, measurable outcomes is also available. Coaching programme investment options: 6, 9 or 12 Months. Standard payment terms are 30 days, accommodating the diverse needs and preferences of my clients.
What makes your coaching unique?
Two decades of solution sales and marketing experience and 14 years in senior management teams and experience driving profitability through strategic growth, leading teams and quality control. My commitment to reconnecting leaders with their purpose through value alignment, empowering them to cultivate their A-game help, impact and influence, and promote psychological safety.
What makes your consulting unique?
My commitment to not being rigidly tied to just strategy or execution or preference of a specific toolkit. Building robust relationships, listening carefully, and bridging the gap between business aspirations, managers and the customer is my focus, and my values align with clients who are committed to achieving realistic, impactful business outcomes.
