Enhancing and Enriching Professional and Personal Lives

Coaching and mentoring can have a significant impact upon organisations, team and individuals, helping them to be the best that they can be.

For organisational, team and individual clients alike our coaching and mentoring services offer a SMARTER, intelligent, co-ordinated, flexible, structured and systematic process driven approach which looks to engage, empower and enrich organisational, team and individual professional and personal lives; gently and constructively disrupts and challenges perceptions and boundaries; a discrete, confidential and constructive space for open, honest, rigorous and robust discussion, critical reflection and exploration; and the opportunity to explore new ideas; innovate and be creative. In short, we take a situational and responsive approach to all our coaching and mentoring.

Our coaching and mentoring mission objective is threefold.

Firstly, to help organisations, businesses, teams and individuals grow, develop, unlock their full potential and achieve their aspirations and dreams.

Secondly, to take a practical and pragmatic approach helping clients towards successfully addressing and resolving organisational, business, team or individual professional and personal challenges and issues facing them.

Thirdly, to bring to our clients’ coaching and mentoring a depth and breadth of expertise and insight, garnered across decades of senior level, international multi-disciplinary and multi sector experience; as well as our resources and assets.

Importantly, we never see coaching and mentoring as a one-way channel. We can all learn from each other, and the privilege of working with professional internationally across all organisational levels and career stages keeps us fresh, inspired and enthused, as well as providing access to fresh perspectives, new knowledge and shared experiences, all of which empower and enrich all of us.

We also offer organisational clients internationally to author, build and develop their own internal professional coaching and mentoring frameworks and programmes.

Coaching

As a trusted business partner the focus of our coaching services is on working in partnership with you

to help support, foster and facilitate organisational, business, team and individual growth, development, performance and prosperity, and operational optimisation, in as an effective and high impact manner as possible. Our key coaching focus is understanding and changing behaviours and developing knowledge skills, competencies and attributes.

To achieve this, we question, listen, counsel, guide and advise; deploy tools and techniques such as action learning; models such as GROW and COACH and, when appropriate, deploying more formal learning and development tools and techniques. We like to particularly focus helping clients across five pillars:

 

Developing best practice and leading-edge knowledge, skills and competencies

Understanding organisational and team dynamics

Building collaborative, learning organisations

Building high performance cultures

Building engaging, enabling, empowering and enriching people and talent cultures

Importantly, as part of our commitment to helping and supporting clients to develop ‘learning’ organisations and cultures, we like to help develop high impact opportunities for cross organisational collaboration, communication and feedback.

In working with organisational, team and individual clients, we understand the importance of optimising the alignment between the organisation, team and individual and their potentially differing aspirations, priorities and requirements.

We have a special interest in, expertise and experience working with young leaders, high-flyers, entrepreneurism and business owners, as well as potential and young military officers.

When working with such clients we look to help assure that career paths are carefully considered and optimised; that talent, knowledge, skills and competencies are developed and natural and innate talent is encouraged and advanced; and that young leaders newly promoted and in post have their professional and personal lives fully supported in a manner that not only allows them to grow, develop and fulfil their full potential; but is nurtured and genuinely flowers over the long-term.
