Services
You may be a business owner, CEO, IT Manager, Project Director or Line Manager in a commercial or not-for-profit sector feeling that you and your team could move forward more purposefully and confidently in pursuit of your goals. I help you create the space in which you can do the thinking and take the action needed to achieve your most important professional and personal goals. I've worked with people in a wide range of organisations including: HSBC, Baillie Gifford, Google, American Express, Capital One, Zendesk, Baker Hughes, Kone Inc, Black Rock, Accenture, BP, Dell, Mars Inc, LEGO Group and Kantar.
One-to-one coaching
I work with individuals to help them develop the clarity, belief and meaning needed to achieve personal and professional goals. The most common situations are when people are: moving into a new role, deciding what their next career move should be, adapting during restructures or finding more work/life balance.
Team mentoring
I help teams to find new ways of working that create a better experience for their clients and themselves. Scenarios in which I do this are: service design and improvement, business start-up, geographic expansion, off-shoring, project initiation, project recovery and capacity planning. This work is often with teams in multiple locations and cultures.
About
Hi, I'm Paul, independent coach & mentor, family-man, traveller, cyclist and business problem solver. My work is inspired by a good deal of experience in life, including a 25-year senior level business career across multiple sectors. I've led international teams from commercial and technical backgrounds in business growth and recovery situations, developed new markets and set up off-shore and outsourcing services. I understand the challenges that people at all levels in an organisation face and thrive on helping them cut through complexity to find their way forward during periods of transformation.
I am an internationally qualified professional coach and experienced facilitator. I am told that I am calm, compassionate and challenging when working one-to-one and with groups. I create a space in which people learn and develop clarity, belief and meaning so that they can move forward on the road to their personal and professional goals.
To keep my balance, relax and find my own way forward, I enjoy being coached myself, continuing to learn, walking with my family and taking part in long-distance cycling events that combine travel and discovery.
Senior leader in FMCG sector
