Executive Coaching
Coaching is a powerful developmental intervention. The coach acts as a sounding board to deepen self awareness, challenge coachees to address development areas and guide individuals to deal with complexity and challenge. We offer coaching grounded in world class techniques from an extensive business experience and endorsed by coaching accreditation.
Leadership Training
Customised workshops empower leaders to upskill across a range of topics. Using client briefing and diagnosis we help you ascertain what your executives need and what challenges they face. This puts leaders at the centre of their personal development with a programme designed specifically to address your leaders’ needs.
Psychometric Profiling
Psychometric profiling helps deepen self awareness and uncover blind spots. When leaders are tenured and senior, 360-degree profiling can be particularly useful as it provides anonymised feedback from peers, seniors and stakeholders across a variety of leadership competencies. It is one of the most powerful ways of improving leadership. The process can be fundamental in closing gaps between how a leader sees him/herself and how others experience his or her behaviours, styles and patterns.
TEAM COACHING
Team Coaching helps improve the way teams work together, it builds trust and accountability. It provides an interactive and psychologically safe approach that helps transform collaboration. Leaders experience new ways of communicating that they can embed once the coaching has come to an end. It helps teams identify priorities and creates more cohesive teams that are motivated, productive, and ready to adapt to new challenges.
Testimonials
“Natalie was exceptional in pinpointing the content and the pace needed for our very demanding audience, sharing her experience in key areas. The results and feedback were at the top of the scale for our organisation.”
“Natalie has oodles of wisdom and an expansive knowledge of life, business, and the corporate world. This makes her a phenomenal support for leaders.”
“Natalie adds value with her natural ability to cut through complexity and see things simply. She has a talent for dealing with people directly and authentically.”
”Natalie got me thinking more deeply about my new and complex role, my leadership style and the relationships I needed to work on. She equipped me with useful techniques for breaking down problems and was an important sounding board for what was an isolated position. She helped me navigate sensitive and tense conversations, thinking through challenges and giving me the confidence to tackle them in my own way, so I could make the right impact at a really formative time in the new job”
“A great mix of theory, group discussions and practical breakout session. Natalie’s years of experience set her apart from coaches who base their session on more academics.”
”With an idea for a product post research and development phase I was ready to go to consumer market testing. My challenge was shaping it, preparing my go-to-market strategy and finding industry partners in what was a slow moving and traditional industry. Natalie quickly understood the product and the market and helped me with product development, the business plan and fund pitch preparation.”
“I loved Natalie’s style, she used different tools and techniques that I had not experienced before and it felt different. It made our experience more memorable and easy to bring back into my day-to-day practice.”
“Natalie is a rare combination of laser sharp acumen and practical, outcome-oriented mentality. Professional and efficient management of disparate intellectual challenges and personalities, as well as an ability to isolate the salient points of a discussion and shepherd a team to the right conclusions.”
