If you are a new people leader, or a people leader keen to level-up, I can help.
Finding the right course or programme to meet you where you are can be a minefield.
Lots of leadership education and coaching is targeted at more Senior Executives, and during my career I found it difficult to find exactly what I needed, when I needed it.
Coaching is a much more flexible model, where we can understand and build on your existing skills, tackle into real challenges you are facing, and ensure you are building your identity and voice as a leader in a way that feels empowering and authentic for you.
As a coach I am focused on helping new and mid-career people leaders to thrive, enjoy and master this part of their role, including:
Uncovering who you want to be as a people leader
Resetting your relationship with your people (particularly after internal promotion)
Building confidence as a new people leader
Handling underperformance or behaviour challenges in your team
Proactively enhancing diversity, inclusion and belonging
Getting feedback from your team
Shifting team culture
Influencing, persuading and changing perspectives
Managing your relationship with your manager.
Ways I can help:
One-to-one coaching with you as an individual
Customised group development programme, group coaching or individual coaching with people leaders in your organisation.
The people profession carries a huge amount of emotional labour, personal management challenge and high pressure. The burnout rate for HR & people professionals is huge! Counsellors, therapists and coaches have supervisors and I think People people need them too.
Whether you're:
looking for additional mentoring & coaching support for a member of your people team
you're looking to get into the people profession or
you're a sole-charge practitioner who needs someone who "gets it" to bounce ideas off and support your development
I have a decade of experience in HR, People & Capability gained in both the UK and NZ, working in small scale up tech businesses to complex multinational enterprises. I have worked as a sole-charge people person and understand both the challenges and opportunities this can bring.
My experience as both a people professional and a coach offers the perfect blend of coaching and expertise. I'd love to see if I can help.
