I offer existential executive coaching to individual corporate clients. My coaching style relies on creative dialogue which is grounded in your values and beliefs, and I seek to work through any challenges and contradictions that you may experience in your work life, while uncovering with you any assumptions which may no longer serve you.
Given the current business environment, the exploration and embracing of existential themes such as choice, uncertainty and anxiety, responsibility, paradox, contradiction and relatedness may serve you in orientating yourself within such an uncertain and complex world.
My approach is non-directive. Instead, I seek to explore and uncover who you are and how you are, in your work life and identity through phenomenological dialogue. Here I curiously and respectfully explore and bring to light what is at issue for you, and how this might be different. To make meaningful change and powerful decisions, you first need to know yourself. I don’t have the answers but there are answers which I seek to draw out and explore, from somewhere within you.
I work with the following themes:
Feeling Stuck
You may find yourself frustrated in your role, this could range from wondering why you lack progress to sensing that your current place at work needs further meaning and importance.
Leadership
For those progressing and starting out, understanding your strengths, and how you might express leadership through who you are. We can ask and explore how you could make impact, foster and exercise your authority. This may take the form of envisaging your idea of your future, where are you going on your current trajectory, and how you might grow your presence and confidence with others through your authenticity and self belief.
Relationships
Reflecting on how you relate to others, and who you are being towards them, while bringing awareness to how you are seen and how colleagues perceive you. I aim to creatively explore how you might empower yourself in your relationships through self awareness, responsibility and choice.
Dilemmas
Exploring what may currently trouble you and hold you back in your work life while making sense of the choices you have and what they could mean for you.
My coaching work takes place in a quiet and inviting consulting room in Chancery Lane, Central London. I invite you to contact me to discuss your coaching requirements and fees.
