What do you love most about your job?
I get great pleasure in working with people who want to make a positive change; become high performers at work; have time for themselves and their loved ones outside of work; knowing that I have helped someone to:
- Feel better about themselves
- Be less stressed
- Have more confidence
- Be in the career they want
- Have quality time at home
My coaching also enables me to have a better work / life balance; be healthier; while doing a job I love.
I have worked hard to get to where I am today and it is rewarding to experience the success of my coaching.
What inspired you to start your own business?
During the 30 years I worked in business managing and leading teams, I took a couple of breaks to do volunteering work in Peru and Laos. I loved the freedom and the sense of achievement; seeing how others benefited from my time with them; building their confidence; providing them with the skills and knowledge they required to get a job; learn a language etc. I wanted this to continue in the workplace.
At work, I experienced redundancy; large change programmes, switched from permanent to contractual employment; worked for one of the big 5 consultancies and smaller startup companies; experienced many different styles of management. I saw what success and failure looked like.
As a manager in the workplace, it can be difficult to develop people properly and give them the opportunities and self-development they wanted.
In 2021, I upskilled with an ICF coaching diploma and now use my knowledge, skills, and experience to work with people who want to develop themselves; progress their careers; have a healthy work-life balance.
If I had had a coach, I would learnt how to develop myself, my team members, and the team better. I would have moved into my new career much sooner, been happier, less stuck on a hamster wheel.
Why should our clients choose you?
I don't want people to be stuck in their career, spinning on the hamster wheel like I was.
I understand each client is unique and will have their own story and journey to travel. I will listen to what you have to say and understand what it is you are looking for, and if you are not sure, we will find out.
I have built my Coaching business on top of 30 years’ experience of working in various organisations and industries. I have experience of working in high demanding, pressured environments, successfully led teams; turned individual’s and teams’ performance around; experienced a range of management styles; experienced corporate and departmental change. So I can relate to what the client is saying and experiencing.
I now take people along their own journey towards the career they want, balancing both work with outside work. It is all about you and what you are looking for.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I work remotely using zoom, ms teams, or skype. Invitations are issued at the time of agreeing a date and time to meet.
