Leadership Coaching

Elevate Your Leader, Elevate Everyone

When Leaders are confident, excited, aware of their superpowers, and, know how to give their best at work, they become infectious to everyone around them.

Data and tools are nothing without direction, and Leaders are pivotal in their role of motivating, guiding and supporting entire workforces in an increasingly digital and changeable landscape.

My background is realising, and releasing, the potential of established Leaders. With a 19-year career in UK media agencies, I have witnessed how a proactive counsel in the form of a Coach, can elevate individuals far further than either they or their organisation dreamed possible.

Positive, self-driven support uncovers people’s true potential, it improves communication and problem-solving skills, it boosts energy and motivation, it creates efficiency, and it has a ripple effect on innovation, momentum and culture.

The most influential person is the Leader.

Help your Leader(s) reach their full potential so that the whole organisation benefits and grows, with Elevate Leadership Coaching. I’m here to help Leaders THRIVE >>>

Coaching Leaders

Coaching Leaders

  • Monthly 1:1 Coaching for CEOs, CSOs, Managing Directors, Managing Partners or those with funkier titles who lead people towards a common organisational goal.
  • Elevate Coaching offers an unbiased sounding board and forum to share, speculate and strategise with confidence and in confidence. Our conversations are entirely ours, what you activate from them is entirely credit to you!
  • I help you understand your Leadership style so that you can get the most out of yourself and of others. You trust yourself enough to lead with total authenticity, credibility and you are hungry to lead, excited about what is ahead and confident in your teams’ capability at achieving it.
  • Big change on the horizon? We workshop whatever you need to create a plan that feels and that is right. I become your thinking, strategic & accountability partner. Get ready to have someone in your corner, but only for the coaching, none of the credit!

Future Leaders Coaching

  • I have extended Elevate Leadership Coaching to pre-Leadership individuals, having had the pleasure of helping a client navigate their application to C-suite (successfully!) This is Monthly 1:1 Coaching for people on the cusp of leadership responsibility.
  • Become clear on your strengths and practise and perfect how you communicate them to an interview board.
  • Identify your communication styles and limiting beliefs around leadership.
  • Create a 90-day-plan (or similar) ahead of, or during, Interview or Promotion stage.

Whole Human Coaching

  • The best teams have self-awareness running right through them! Not everyone is motivated by workplace outcome, but, with individualised support, organisations can benefit from their best outcome at work. 
  • Whole human coaching recognises that not everyone wants to talk project management or team politics strategies. Sometimes, realising that if you prioritised hiking twice a year with friends, or learning a skill you’ve put off for years, is what will renew your energy, is the magic ingredient to boosting work motivation. 
  • The physical and mental wellbeing of your team is the fuel behind your output. Coaching helps people become the best version of their whole human selves, which in turn, fuels them to bring their best to work in their work hours. A small investment can help even the least likely ‘team players’ elevate their contribution.

Workshop Your Work

  • A one-off, fiercely-focused Coaching session. 3 hour workshops designed to unblock, strategise and ACTIVATE whatever project has become ‘stuck’ or tangled.
  • With my expertise in Strategy and Activation, years in project coordination and with my Coaching hat ready to expose tricky blockers you might not wish to admit (!), a ‘Workshop Your Work’ session brings non-competitive, supportive and unbiased objectivity to your workplace tangles.
  • Think out loud, lay it all on the table and come up with a realistic plan to move forward.
  • I get right into the problem with you and 3 hours later, you leave relieved, excited and crystal clear on what comes next.
  • These sessons MUST be in-person, at office or private working space. All stationary equipment provided.
  • Free your mind of a big project and all the mental load that comes with it for as little as £395!

Why Choose Me?

I have been part of the life-blood of UK media agencies for 19 years, and despite being able to create a comms strategy with my eyes closed, my passion lies in supporting and nurturing others.

I have real experience of working on dynamic, stressful,  complex & changeable projects, managing teams, clients, expectations and budgets. I’ve walked the walk of corporate misalignment and lack of motivation. I know how damaging it has the potential to be. I also know how powerful self-motivated growth can be, which is why I changed my career from Leadership to Leadership Coach.

Coaching ignites an unparalleled motivation in people that fuels self-confidence, fulfilment and contentment. The organisational, productivity, and financial benefits for the company that invests in its people are well documented.

Elevate Coaching uses a person-led approach to deepen self-understanding, challenge mindsets and beliefs, and create action that benefits entire teams. I use coaching tools to encourage pause, reflection and effective listening.

I create a conducive space to create positive change. 

If you’re looking to ignite creative thinking, refresh curiosity, challenge from a place of inspiration, or help a newly-promoted Leader thrive from the get-go, I can help.
