Executive Coaching

What Can Coaching Offer?

I support senior leaders to increase their executive presence, sharpen their thinking, lead with confidence, and navigate complexity, particularly during periods of growth, transition, or heightened pressure.

I provide a structured, confidential and non-judgmental space to help you build self-awareness, think more clearly, and make sound decisions in demanding roles.

Clients often come to coaching at pivotal moments: stepping into a more senior role, leading through change, managing increased complexity, or reassessing direction at a career crossroads. Our work supports both professional growth and the perspective needed to lead well under pressure.

My coaching integrates evidence-based methodologies with practical commercial experience gained operating at C-suite and board level within fast-paced global brands.

What Can You Expect?

Clients often come to coaching because they are:

Transitioning into a new role or expanded leadership remit
Feeling stretched, stuck or overwhelmed by competing demands
Navigating complex organisational, team or stakeholder dynamics
Seeking greater clarity around priorities and how they use their time
Stepping into their first board or C-suite role and developing greater executive presence
Learning to lead at a more strategic level, while letting go of the detail
Balancing the demands of leadership or building a business with their personal wellbeing

What can change through coaching?

Most of the leaders I work with are already highly capable. Coaching isn't about fixing what's wrong. It's about creating the space to examine what's getting in the way of leading at your best and turning insight into meaningful, sustainable change.

Greater confidence and self-belief
Recognise patterns of self-doubt, perfectionism and imposter thinking, so you can trust your judgement, speak with greater conviction and spend less time second-guessing yourself.

Stronger leadership presence and impact
Build greater awareness of how you show up and how others experience you. Communicate with greater clarity and authority, challenge constructively and increase your influence in senior conversations where you've earned your place at the table.

Better delegation and stronger teams
Step away from the need to hold onto everything yourself. Build trust, accountability and capability in your team, freeing you to step back from the detail, see the bigger picture and focus on the work that only you can do.

Clearer priorities and greater strategic capacity
Move from constant reactivity towards greater intentionality. Get clearer about what really requires your attention, what can be delegated or stopped, and create the space to think, make better decisions and lead more strategically.

More intentional leadership
Understand the patterns, assumptions and behaviours that shape the way you lead. Develop a wider range of responses so that, particularly under pressure, you can respond with greater awareness and choice rather than defaulting to familiar habits or ways of working.

My approach combines evidence-based coaching with over 20 years' experience of leadership, business and organisational life. We work with both insight and action: understanding what's driving a pattern, experimenting with different behaviours and looking for tangible evidence of change — in what you notice, what you do differently and what others begin to notice too.

We tend to think about coaching being about helping people achieve their goals. While this is the reason most people come to coaching, what often emerges in the coaching are deeper concerns which go beyond the contingent goals, questions about how we reconnect to ourselves and what’s truly important amid the pressure to be busy and perform.

In that sense, coaching becomes a space for people to step back from their everyday lives with its challenges and demands, and to reflect on who they are and what matters to them.

Ways to work together:

Coaching is tailored to individual needs through regular in-person or virtual sessions, and is available in tailored packages. Please get in touch for prices.

Frequently Asked Question’s

Coaching is a conversation, or a series of conversations with the aim of helping people learn, grow, and fulfill their potential. Coaching enables people to tap into their own wisdom to help them achieve their goals, improve their performance, gain clarity, become more self aware of others, and to develop self-responsibility. It is a developmental dialogue between coach and client, using skilful questioning.
Elizabeth’s clients come from all walks of life – some lead large teams, some are entrepreneurs running their own businesses, and some are between paid roles right now. What they all share is a sense that they want to make a change and have a desire to make it happen.
The process begins with a complimentary 30-minute discovery call, providing an opportunity for both parties to get to know each other and explore how they might work together. This initial conversation allows for an assessment of the potential to build a meaningful partnership and establish a strong foundation for working toward the your goals.
The first session builds on this discussion, delving deeper into your aims and objectives for the partnership and how Elizabeth can support you in facilitating change. She asks questions such as, "What has brought you to this point?" and "What is important to you now?" to gain a deeper understanding of your situation and future ambitions.
Everyone is unique, with different goals and needs, and coaching is tailored to each individual.
For that reason, Elizabeth offers a range of packages to accommodate various needs. The most popular package includes six 60-minute sessions, conducted online, face-to-face (where this can be accommodated), or as a hybrid of the two. Sessions are scheduled at mutually convenient times and at a frequency that suits you, whether weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. All packages include the opportunity to contact Elizabeth between sessions via WhatsApp or by arranging short check-ins.
One-to-one sessions take place online, face-to-face (using Zoom), or as a walk-and-talk in Richmond Park, Surrey. Virtual sessions typically last 60 minutes, or 90 minutes, while walk-and-talk sessions can extend to two hours.
Elizabeth is a member of the ICF and EMCC, her practice aligns to their strict code of ethics.
She will provide you with a coaching agreement that covers topics such as confidentiality and practical considerations such as payment, session length, scheduling and ways of working.
Elizabeth encourages you to seek support from your line manager, peers, team, or HR business partner or sponsor, if appropriate.

With Elizabeth’s background as a mentor, I also appreciated a blend of encouraging me to find answers within, whilst offering practical support and suggestions where relevant.
