What support you need will depend on the nature of the challenge you are facing. After your initial consultation, I will work with you to determine the approach or blend of approaches you require. We can also agree if face to face, remote support or a combination of the two will be most suitable. Below is an outline of some key areas of support available.
Whether you are new to leadership or have been leading others for years, it can be so valuable to get an independent perspective on your style and approach. I work with you to identify what you want to be known for as a leader. I help you to use your existing strengths to achieve this. My approach is aimed at deepening your self-awareness and giving you confidence to succeed. I also offer bespoke 360 feedback tailored to give you an in-depth view of your strengths and areas for development, plus a plan for how you can use your strengths to best advantage going forward.
Feeling stuck? Want to have more impact? Or perhaps you have lost sight of what you want and need for yourself as you have been bending over backwards to meet the needs and expectations of others. Or you feel conflicted about your personal ambition and the needs of children or parents who require your time and attention.
I'll help you to understand your underlying motivations and strengths, and to identify what you want and need from your life in a way that will enhance your impact, effectiveness and interactions with others. This may include changing up your daily/weekly routine, as well as your mindset, to enable you to enhance your enjoyment of the various roles you inevitably need to play in your life.
We all aspire to lead and work within a high-performing team. Sadly that is not always the reality. I can work with you and your team to get underneath your strengths and areas for improvement. By understanding the underlying causes of the things which are holding you back, I can work with you and the team to maximise your collective performance.
At a certain point in a startup's journey, the requirement to have more clarity and direction on the people side of things becomes a necessity. I can work with you to establish the right organisation design, values & behaviours, people value proposition and HR framework to support your brand, company mission and the culture you'd like to emerge. I can even help you to hire the right HR professionals to take your business to the next level.
In today's volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world, it can be difficult as a leader to know what levers to pull to ensure you have an optimal culture, underpinned by the right organisation design, processes and behaviours. I will clarify what's working well and identify where you can make changes to ensure you are on the best possible path. I can also support you with the right people strategy and people value proposition to support your business vision and goals.
Many organisations do a great job of identifying the strategy and associated culture they want to succeed, but often neglect to ensure this is embedded in the every layer of leadership in the company. I can help you to design the leadership interventions required to translate good intent into practial action. This can include bespoke workshops and programmes, as well as indiviual coaching.
