COACHING
BUT not perhaps AS YOU KNOW IT
COACHING STARTS WITH A QUESTION…
..and doesn’t necessarily end with an easy answer.
Coaching builds capacity and competence to work with compelling and more challenging questions.
It develops confidence, choice, courage and action.
We bring a relationship that begins with where each person is and identifies what is needed to unlock potential.
“Start with your own question,
Give up on other people’s questions,
Don’t let them smother something simple.”
Extract from David Whyte poem ‘Start close in’

WE ARE GLOBAL PIONEERS AND PRACTITIONERS OF WHOLE PERSON APPROACHES
We have evolved our approach with over forty years of on-going research and practice. We have partnered and supported hundreds of leaders, CEOs, chairs, directors, managers, entrepreneurs and aspiring practitioners to do their best work and to be better versions of themselves. Our approach starts with the relationship, aligns with the person, the organisational needs and is future focussed.
Whilst we use the term coach, our seasoned developers blend a range of skills, holistic understanding, lived experiences, tools and approaches (including developmental coaching and mentoring) to meet the needs of those we work with. We bring ourselves, our practices and approaches in such a way as to be a supportive and catalytic foundation for each and every conversation.
Our approach listens to the whole of the person and helps to make sense of the context you live and work within – your I, We and All of Us – to help shape a different future.
