Strategic Coaching For Entrepreneurs & Business Leaders

What is Strategic Coaching?

Success has been widely studied, and is well understood. There are a number of factors associated with success and high performance:

Having a point 'B' - a destination, is critical. Where do you want to go, what do you want to achieve, who do you want to become?
Having a way of measuring progress and achievement is critical. How will you know you are heading in the right direction, and how will you know you have arrived?

Not so well understood, are the factors which determine our actual performance in pursuing our goals. Our engagement, commitment and ultimately our fulfilment. True high performance requires alignment, otherwise it results in burnout, stress, frustration and fatigue. The factors associated with high performance and alignment are:

Self-awareness: we need to know our behavioural and communication preferences, our personal drivers and motivators, and most importantly our natural talents.
Authenticity: we need to align the way we go about achieving results, with our natural strengths and preferences. It is only through this alignment that we can achieve the highest level of performance.

Strategic Coaching is how we achieve this awareness and alignment. Together, we ensure your goals are the ones which will bring you the results you will truly appreciate and find fulfilment through. We make sure that the way you go about achieving your aligned goals, is aligned with your unique and individual way to effortless and engaged high performance.

What Can You Expect from Coaching?

You can expect your results to improve - measurably.
You can expect a professional coaching relationship based on integrity, compassion and value.
You can expect to experience new insights and to think in ways you haven't before.
You can expect to define success in your own terms, and expect me to help you achieve it.

Why Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders?

Permit me to be direct. You have chosen the route of leadership, have already achieved a level of tangible success, and you know how to get results. You have flexibility and control, and you have the power to influence. And to be quite frank, my personal mission is to create the maximum value I can too.

Working with influential people like yourself of course means that you experience value, however as a leader your results also influence many others. Working with leaders and influential people multiplies the effectiveness of my coaching work beyond our one-to-one relationship.

What Does Coaching Consist Of?

We will first establish what outcome you desire from our work together - you will define how we measure success. It could be in one area of your personal life, or part of your work, or both. You decide.

Our coaching work starts with a foundation series, a proven process, designed to expand your awareness of what needs to change in order to achieve that higher performance. Typically this foundation series takes a few sessions, and is based largely on the principles of 5th Level Coaching, whereby we establish a seldom seen level of self-awareness. We then use this deep self-awareness as a starting point for sustainable and effective change.

We then progress onto the work of creating measurable improvements, during which time you can expect to be challenged, in ways which result in your personal growth. You can also expect to experience differences in all areas of your life, not just work.

Generally speaking, you can expect improvements within the three core areas - how much depends on your level of commitment and personal responsibility:

Connection - Where you are connected deep inside to who you really are, your authentic and quite frankly - amazing self; your relationships are fulfilling. You feel passionate about life and what you bring to it. In fact, you can truthfully say you have a life rich with meaning and purpose.
Significance - Where you love what you do, and do what you love. You are a living example of what it's like to see and realise your full potential. You get the results you want, the ones that matter most and create the highest value, for you and the people close to you. You are significant, and you're making a real difference. You have the money that you want, the stuff you want, and the choice to do the things you want to do.
Certainty - Where you know with absolute clarity who you really are, why you are here and what you need to do. You have a plan, a strategic plan - and you see your future clearly. You know where you're going, can see how to get there, and you are making progress. Where you are heading is taking you to where you want to go. It's more than that, it's about who you are becoming, who you aspire to be. You are inspired to head towards it every day of your life.

I work with a small number of individuals and organisations, in order to provide highly personalised coaching and consulting.
