Leadership Coaching: Always “On”. There are rising concerns regarding our flexible working culture leading to the ‘always on’. This brings the expectation that employees should always be available… this behaviour in turn leading to burnout. If you are a leader then this will not be unfamiliar to you. If you are a good leader you […]
Career Coaching: Trust. It takes time to make a really ambitious plan manifest. I had a client show up here for a mentoring session saying “I was wondering whether to come as I haven’t become a filmmaker yet”. Film-maker being the intention of his five-year plan and it only being 6 months since we have […]
Leadership Coaching: Procrastination arises in many forms. One form of procrastination is “busyness”. Have you ever noticed just how easy it is to tackle small jobs … only to discover that you have completely ignored ( skimmed over, gone into denial about, put off …!), the big thing that’s staring you in the face? The […]
Career Coaching: “Lucky”. Have you come across those people who just seem to land on their feet? Those that go for promotion and always get it? Those who consistently earn well without seeming to put much energy in? Those who even if they get made redundant, have a new job within days? Those who appear […]
Leadership coaching: What Next? What if you know you are a leader but you don’t know where to put yourself next? You’ve led projects. you’ve lead teams. You’ve led change. You’ve enabled stuff to happen out in the world & you’ve seen the results … What next? What’s your next challenge? Its time to find out […]
Leadership Coaching: Firsts. There is a Jungian belief that we have all we will ever need around us. And, that we can only access when we are ready. If you are new to a leadership role then you might be asking questions about your suitability for this role? What makes us ready to access all these […]
Career Coaching: Show-Up. If you want a consistent outcome then you need to be consistent in your input. Your career, your project, your business or your team, will reflect exactly what you put into it. Fact! What we manifest outside in the world is a direct reflects of the actions that we take. The actions […]
Career Coaching: Decision-Making. There is a little lecture I find myself giving my coaching clients sometimes. It goes something like this: “if, when you ask yourself what you want, and you answer with ‘I don’t know’ you are giving your power away. You are giving your power away because if you don’t decide your next move, someone […]
Career Coaching: Energy Isn’t it interesting what we learn when we take an objective look at our actions and our thinking? Having just harnessed the data from a 14-day energy experiment I was asked to complete, some of the outcomes were obviously, some much less so. Aside from those half-hour entries that voiced: “Doing: being interrupted […]
Leadership Coaching: Risk. What stops us taking risks? It’s our brain. Is this always useful? No! Yes, it keeps us safe, but it also arrests our development. I have clients that have brains that enable them to decide to do one thing late at night and by the next morning, they have managed to rationalise themselves right […]
