Decision fatigue at the top
You make dozens of consequential calls each week. Over time, the quality drops. Not because you lack information but because the mental load compounds without anyone noticing.
Executive coaching that changes how you think, not just what you do
Most leaders know what they should do differently. The hard part is seeing the patterns that keep getting in the way. We help you find those patterns, dismantle them and replace them with something that actually works.

Where leaders usually get stuck
Before we talk about coaching, we talk about the problem. These are the four patterns we see most often in senior leaders who come to us.
Influence without authority
Board dynamics, cross-functional politics, stakeholder management. Your formal title gets you into the room. What you do once you're there determines whether anything changes.
The isolation of seniority
Honest feedback thins out the higher you climb. Your direct reports filter what they tell you. Peers compete. Coaches exist partly to fill the gap that seniority creates.
Transition pressure
New role, new organisation, first 90 days. The skills that got you promoted are rarely the skills that make the new job work. Transitions are where reputations are built or broken quickly.
How a coaching engagement runs
Six months is our standard engagement. Some clients extend to twelve. Here is the shape of the work.
01
Diagnostic conversation
A 60-minute call. We map your current challenges, leadership context and what a successful outcome looks like in concrete terms. No charge, no obligation.
02
360° data gathering
We interview five to eight people you work with closely. The interviews are confidential and structured around behavioural patterns, not personality traits.
03
Feedback and goal setting
You receive a written summary of themes from the 360° process. Together we set two or three development goals that are specific enough to measure.
04
Fortnightly sessions
Ninety-minute sessions, held every two weeks. Between sessions you work on agreed experiments: small, deliberate changes in how you lead, communicate or decide.
05
Mid-point review
At month three we re-interview a subset of stakeholders to check whether the changes are visible. This keeps the work honest and grounded in observable behaviour.
06
Close and handover
A final session produces a personal leadership playbook: the practices that worked, the triggers to watch for and a self-coaching framework for after we finish.

Who this is for
We work with people who already lead at a high level and want to lead better. Typical clients include:
- C-suite executives and managing directors
- Senior vice presidents stepping into their first board role
- Founders scaling beyond 50 employees who need to shift from doing to directing
- Functional heads (finance, technology, operations) moving into general management
- Leaders navigating mergers, restructures or turnaround situations
We do not run group workshops or sell pre-packaged leadership programmes. Every engagement is one-to-one and built around your specific context.
Frequently asked questions
If your question isn't here, ask it directly during the diagnostic call.
How much does a six-month engagement cost?
Fees depend on the scope of 360° work and session frequency. Most engagements fall between £8,000 and £18,000 for a six-month programme. We quote a fixed fee after the diagnostic call so there are no surprises.
Can sessions happen remotely?
Yes. About 70% of our sessions run over video. We find the quality of conversation is comparable to in-person meetings once the relationship is established. For clients in England, we're happy to meet face to face when it adds value, particularly for the feedback session and mid-point review.
What coaching qualifications do you hold?
Our lead coach holds a PCC credential from the International Coaching Federation and an MSc in Organisational Psychology from Birkbeck, University of London. Before coaching full-time, she spent 14 years in operational leadership roles at two FTSE 250 companies.
Is the content of sessions confidential?
Completely. When an organisation sponsors the coaching, we agree upfront what the sponsor will and will not hear. Typically the sponsor receives progress updates on goals but never the content of individual sessions. That boundary is non-negotiable.
What if coaching isn't the right fit?
Sometimes it isn't. If the diagnostic call reveals that a different intervention would serve you better, such as team facilitation, mediation or a structured mentoring arrangement, we will say so and refer you to someone who specialises in that area. We would rather turn work away than deliver something that won't move the needle.
Start with a conversation
The diagnostic call is 60 minutes, free, and has no strings attached. Tell us a little about your situation and we will find a time.
