Leadership coaching is a developmental process designed to enhance a leader's skills, effectiveness, and overall performance.

Executive / Leadership 1-2-1 coaching is so much more than coaching. It’s coaching, mentoring, advisory and partnering. I work with leaders on an individual basis to help them realise their personal potential. The work we will do together is confidential and personal. I work closely with clients to explore their values and beliefs, motivators, strengths, sense of who they are and the things they would like to change, learn or do differently. 

The reality for most leaders and founders is that they don’t have all the answers. You’re expected to, but it’s impossible to know what to do in every situation, especially if it’s something you have never experienced before. This can make this a lonely place to be, with few people for you to share the load with or turn to when times get tough.

Together, we establish specific coaching goals and work on strategies to address these challenges. Each session is customised to meet the individuals unique and personal needs.

I work with clients on a wide range of issues, this might include: setting the vision and strategic direction for your organisation, being a critical friend and thinking partner, giving you the tools and techniques for a difficult/crucial conversation, developing strategies for greater resilience, exploring greater self-awareness and emotional intelligence but most of all, holding a confidential space for you to share, reflect and consider what actions, opportunities and options are available to you as a leader.

Leadership coaching can help support your leadership by growing your skills, developing your self-awareness and enhancing personal effectiveness.

Leadership coaching is for anyone in or aspiring to a leadership role who wants to grow their skills, self-awareness, and effectiveness.

I tailor the coaching offer to suit your needs, whether that’s a two-hour face-to-face session, a block of three or hours of coaching online or a mixture of both.

I’d be happy to talk to you about your leadership coaching needs on a no-obligation basis, so you can decide if I would be the right leadership coach for you.

Leadership coaching can benefit leaders at all levels of an organisation, from individual contributors to CEOs. The goal is always to help and support leaders in the development of sustainable behavioural change that positively impacts their team and the organisation they represent.

How Leadership Coaching can help.

This ‘leadership stuff’ doesn’t have to be complicated. One of my greatest passions is helping people grow as leaders, something I’ve dedicated my career to as a leadership development specialist and coach. I've seen first-hand the transformative impact strong, effective leadership can have on both individuals and organisations.

In 2014, I founded my coaching business with a clear mission: to help leaders grow faster, and become more confident and capable. The only requirement I ask of every client is a genuine desire to grow.

Leadership always starts in the future. I’m especially curious when it comes to a leaders vision for the future that they want, especially when it differs from their current reality. 

When working with leaders, whether that’s senior or exec level, I encourage them to be ‘up to something’. Whether that’s a vision for their team, organisation, colleagues or personal growth, ideally a goal that matters to them.

When a leader is ‘up to something’ and committed to taking action, things happen. I partner with my clients to turn their ideas into reality. Interested in finding out how Leadership Coaching can help you?

  • It was lovely to have you back in the building on Tuesday last week! You left staff feeling positive after your CPD on Resilience. You always leave an air of 'can do' and positivity in the building after you have left. We have all been talking about the 'weather in our heads' and our SHEDS for the last week! Very positive feedback from all staff that attended, thank you!

  • I just wanted to say thank you to you for the confidence boost on the last webinar you did about Crucial Conversations. You'll be pleased to know that I had my first crucial conversation yesterday. I did the prep, more prep and had plenty of information to hand, the meeting went as planned and in fact it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. We have one scheduled every week now for the next 4 weeks. If it wasn't for the webinar I probably wouldn't have done it.

  • Fiona is an exceptional coach - following a promotion, Fiona has helped me traverse a myriad of issues as I've moved from an operational role to a strategic/leadership role. Easy to build a rapport with and not one to shy away from a probing discussion, Fiona is adept at cutting to the heart of an issue and getting you to a practical solution. It is clichéd to say that some people you meet are life changing, but working with Fiona genuinely has been and I can't recommend Fiona highly enough.

    C.W Director & Partner – Professional Services

  • Fiona's coaching was invaluable to me during the first year of my role of Head of Information Systems. She was professional, enthusiastic and knowledgeable throughout the period we worked together both in relation to management and presentation skills coaching. The coaching support Fiona provided was invaluable from the perspective of my personal development.

  • Just wanted to say on behalf of the Executive team and the rest of HPL THANK YOU for this week, it was incredible and we have had such positive feedback. It really did hit the 'sweet spot' and I personally learnt so much. The techniques used, the stories and games and bringing it altogether was brilliant. A few people have commented on that they really enjoyed all in the mind session. The Executive team are meeting on Monday to start digesting things and bringing things together and we will be in contact very shorty to carry on this journey.

  • From the onset, she has set goals with me, tracked my progress and always set new challenges. I find Fiona very insightful (no pun intended) and always offers me guidance and shows understanding. Her 'walk & talk' approach is really useful as it allows me to get fresh air while getting a fresh perspective on things. Personally, I use our sessions in various ways, to help me develop, to resolve problems, act as a sounding board and very importantly as a counsel to allow me to just talk (something us men often find difficult). I would highly recommend Fiona as a business coach and as a mentor, friend and confidant.

    N.M Operations Director - Healthcare

  • I started working with Fiona shortly before lockdown; I’d had consistently strong feedback on my performance but at the same time, the things I needed to improve on came up time and time again, and were starting to act as a block to my career progression. I really wanted to change that, and so I started working with Fiona as my coach to help me address those improvement areas and really fulfil my potential. Working with Fiona has been an absolute pleasure – she’s a great sounding board, and has a wealth of experience and research behind her, that’s helped me move through those blocks. I’ve had to work hard, and she’s kept me on my toes, but in the nicest possible way and with a great sense of humour!

    K.T Executive Director - Public Sector Body

  • I wanted to extend my thanks for coming down south and facilitating the development day for our senior team and exec. The day was filled with valuable learning, insightful reflections, and important steps we can take forward in our journey both as individuals and as a company. Your efforts and expertise made an impact, and we are all excited about the growth, and progress we can achieve with the knowledge and strategies you shared. I look forward to working with you both in the future.
