1-to-1 Strategic Leadership Coaching for CEOs
If you are looking for elite Leadership Coaching for yourself then we would love to talk to you.
We have Coaches within our team that are widely experienced working with CEOs and Board Directors in some of the worlds largest organisations, and we'd be delighted to work with you to help you achieve your goals.
We understand that being a CEO has always been a tough role and in the modern world of global businesses it's even tougher. In this environment it's hard to know who to turn to, who's 'got your back' - if this sounds like you, or you know deep down that you could be performing better than you are now, then you should consider working with a Leadership Coach.
The coaches within our team are some of the most senior in the world, and they'll be in your corner, passionately believing in you and continually motivating you to succeed. Your Leadership Coach only has your goals on their agenda and will tailor every coaching session to ensure you stay focused, motivated and take action! Success always follows.
We're expert at delivering our Coaching virtually, having been doing so for over 15 years... initially by telephone and in more recent years via Skype and Zoom.
If you have a coaching requirement right now we can still help you, and we guarantee our standards and excellent coaching results will be exactly the same as if we were meeting you face to face.
Executive Coaching for Leadership
When was the last time you considered your own leadership style?
Are there any aspects of your style that you could adapt to be an even more effective leader to the Board, to enable the team to have more open conversations, better alignment and strategic clarity?
Is it at all possible that your style could be inhibiting the fuller relationship and fuller collaboration of the Board?
Could the way you lead / ask questions be compelling your Board to try and 'cover their backside' rather than being open and honest with you?
If you have answered "I'm not sure" to any of these questions then you should consider talking to us.
As a CEO, you need to
be working with a
Board / C-Suite that
trusts that you have their
best interests at heart,
whilst at the same time
being an effective leader
of them.
In a confidential, safe environment your Leadership Coach will support you and encourage you to get even higher performance from your leadership team, and also help you to further develop your own leadership skills.
Example topics you may cover during your coaching programme are:
- Getting the best out of each of your board members
- Developing and projecting sufficient leadership gravitas
- Effectively creating the conditions to enable the leadership team to function at its optimum level
- Identifying exactly where to focus your leadership energy for the greatest commercial leverage
- Reassessing strategic priorities and developing a clear plan of action
Tools, knowledge and new skills will be developed as part of your Leadership Coaching programme so that you can implement these in the business for immediate and longer-term success.
Example Case Studies
Case Study:
Working with the Managing Director of a large transport company, the MD recognised that by constantly asking his Leadership Team "why would you do that?" or "why is it this" he was in fact putting up a barrier between himself and his team, putting them on the spot and on the defensive. By adapting his behaviour and changing the way he asked questions he created open, sharing and collaborative relationships with his team.

Cathy provides a rare combination of executive business coaching with in-depth psychological knowledge. Depending on the topic at hand, she offers practical, to-the-point suggestions, while at the same time triggering broader introspection for the coachee. After an initial executive coaching programme, I quickly came back for more! Touching base on a regular basis is an excellent way to critically examine oneself and come back to the company with a fresh perspective."
Commercial Director, Air France/KLMSomething to think about
"Once used to bolster troubled staffers, coaching now is part of the standard leadership development training for elite executives and talented up-and-comers at IBM, Motorola, J.P. Morgan, Chase and Hewlett Packard. These companies are discreetly giving their best prospects what star athletes have long had: a trusted adviser to help reach their goals."

“Business coaching is attracting America’s top CEOs because, put simply, business coaching works. In fact, when asked for a conservative estimate of monetary payoff from the coaching they got… managers described an average return of more than $100,000, or about six times what the coaching had cost their companies.”
