What we do

Psycho-educational leadership development coaching

Senior leaders don’t need more sheep dip leadership programmes—they’ve done plenty already! But during times of change or challenge, tailored 1:1 coaching can be a game-changer. It’s a chance to dive deep into specific leadership areas, unpack tricky situations and relationships, and create practical solutions that deliver real results fast.

We specialise in leadership development coaching that’s grounded in psychology, blending science, experience, and collaboration to empower leaders to tackle tough challenges, inspire motivated teams, and build lasting success. Our semi-structured approach brings psycho-education into the mix, focusing on six key areas of psychology to boost resilience and adaptability. Every session is designed to keep it real, laser-focused on your goals, tailored to your needs, and aligned with your organisation’s big-picture strategy.

Who we work with

Our clients are senior leaders, executives, and teams with the power and influence to shape their organisations. They’re often:

Busy yet conscientious: Leaders balancing high expectations and limited time, seeking ways to improve their impact and prioritise what matters most.
Facing complex challenges: Leaders navigating high-stakes decisions, organisational change, or team dynamics who want a trusted partner to explore solutions and strategies.
Committed to growth: Professionals who recognise the value of continuous learning and development, striving to lead with confidence and authenticity in evolving environments.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your personal leadership skills or drive transformational change within your organisation, we work with you to achieve meaningful, lasting outcomes.

Strengths

We use a Strengthscope® 360 to identify a leader’s natural strengths, and how these are perceived by those who work with them. Leaders work with our Psychologist Coaches to develop a deep understanding of how they can apply their strengths most effectively within their organisational context, and where their strengths may be overplayed and hindering performance.

Research tells us that strengths-based coaching promotes resilience, creativity, and a growth mind-set, empowering leaders to navigate challenges with optimism. Strength aware leaders are adept at creating a culture of recognition and development, where team members feel valued for their contributions, fostering innovation, trust, and retention.

Positive Psychology

Contrary to popular belief, positive psychology is not about ‘thinking

positively’. While there may be benefits to seeing the glass as half full, the well-researched field of positive psychology provides us with a wealth of tools, techniques, and skills that allow people to thrive.

Our Psychologist Coaches help to identify which are most useful and applicable for a leader given their abilities, personality and situation, and ensures new thinking and behaviours are implemented successfully, and sustainable in times of change and challenge.

Understanding Uniqueness

As Psychologists we are endlessly amazed at the breadth of individual variation within our species! We understand the benefits this diversity brings at a societal level, and within organisations. In our Understanding Uniqueness psycho-education sessions, we go beyond labels to facilitate a rich and deep understanding of the multitude of ways in which we humans differ in our thinking, perception, attention and behaviour.

When leaders truly understand and value the uniqueness of individuals, they’re able to unlock the potential of diverse talents, perspectives, and motivations. They’re able to tailor their approach to foster deeper engagement and trust, creating a work environment where team members feel seen and appreciated, enhancing collaboration and overall performance.

Persuasion

Understanding the psychology of persuasion gives leaders a powerful edge, helping them influence, inspire, and motivate others with ease. Being aware of the complex motivations underlying the thoughts and behaviour of those around them helps leaders to navigate resistance, foster agreement, and

ensure smoother collaboration.

We go beyond merely sharing theory. We work with leaders to identify specific behavioural changes that will enable them to become more persuasive, to more people, more often. Our Psychologist Coaches ensure that leaders not only have the knowledge, but gain the confidence to apply that knowledge effectively, refining their skills through reflection and practice to truly elevate their leadership impact.

Lifelong Learning

By this point in the programme our Psychologists know the individual leader they are working with well, and together, they will have identified specific thought patterns or behaviours which are preventing the leader from truly thriving and reaching their full potential.

With a deep and broad knowledge of human psychology, our Psychologists are able to provide tailored psycho-education in this session, and apply an evidence-led approach to coaching resulting in real, sustainable change.

Individuals, teams, organisations and the wider world are continuously evolving, as is the science of Psychology in the workplace. This session cultivates the growth mind-set required to continue to proactively learn long after completing the programme.

Emotional Intelligence

The benefits of an emotionally intelligent leader are well known, and the leadership development industry is awash with training designed to foster EI and harness the advantages to the individual, team and wider organisation.

However, knowledge will only take you so far. Turning up at the gym in your lycra, and knowing how every exercise machine works, won’t benefit you at all unless you actually apply that knowledge and work hard!

This is where our coaching approach is crucial. We ensure that the knowledge does not go to waste, that it used to address the specific individual and organisational challenges faced by each leader. By bridging the gap between understanding and action, our coaching turns

insights into tangible results, empowering leaders to truly make a difference in their roles and organisations.
