My training involved: 125 hours+ coach specific training, 100 hours+ coaching experience, 10+ hours of formal mentor coaching, supervision and passing written and final assessments.
I am a formal graduate of Coaching Development‘s Accredited Coach Training Programme achieving the Diploma in Coaching.
This qualification is recognised by the International Coaching Federation, the only globally recognised professional coaching body.
I am a member of the ICF and work to their definition of coaching, core competencies and code of ethics and conduct.
My coaching supports you to make progress towards your goal.
Our work together will enable you to:
- Get really clear about what it is you want and don’t want.
- Figure out what is standing between you and getting what you want.
- Understand how to get around the barriers.
- Create and carry out the plan to get to where you want to be
My style of coaching is to create a series of dynamic conversations that support you to get clear about your goals, find what you need to move forward and build your confidence to execute the plan successfully. In order to create these conversations, I will ask questions, listen and give feedback on what I’ve heard.
