Coaching for law, real estate and built environment professionals.
My Services
I am a coach, facilitator and mentor helping organisations empower their people to succeed.
During nearly 30 years as a lawyer in planning and commercial property, I learned a lot about the challenges that leaders and professionals in those sectors face. As co-founder and Managing Partner of the country’s leading specialist law firm, I gained first-hand experience of building a successful business from scratch and creating a progressive organisational culture in which people can be the best they can be.
Now, I’m a ICF accredited coach and am bringing these strands of experience into a new specialist coaching, facilitation and mentoring offer, tailored to the needs of leaders and professionals in the planning, property and legal sectors. I’m partnering with clients to help them realise the full human potential in their organisations.
My practice is founded on my personal values of excellence and empowerment and above all on working in a partnership of equals with my clients.

Mediation
Sometimes, with the best will in the world, people fall into stressful workplace relationships or even situations of conflict. This can be destructive of high performance and positive workplace cultures.
I am a CEDR-accredited workplace mediator, and have extensive experience in resolving conflict in a positive and collaborative way.
The specialist skills I have acquired as a workplace mediator complement my team coaching expertise, enabling me to work with teams to defuse stress and conflict where it occurs, so they can focus on being the high performance teams that they are supposed to be.
Facilitation
I have extensive experience of facilitating team discussions and board meetings. As as facilitator, I guide discussions, focusing on the process so that participants can focus on content. I create an environment of equality and ease, managing the group dynamics so that that everyone can contribute effectively to discussions, making for better decision-making.
I am an experienced public speaker, frequently delivering conference keynotes, corporate away-days and training and development sessions. I speak on a range of subjects within my experience and expertise, including business performance and strategy, workplace culture and DEI and personal growth and development.
Coaching
I am an accredited coach with the International Coach Federation, the world's largest professional association for coaches. I hold a Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching from Henley Business School, University of Reading.
I work with my coaching clients as "thinking partner", supporting, challenging, daring them to do their most creative, independent thinking.
I use a variety of different professional coaching approaches. What ties them all together is that they are intellectually rigorous, evidence-led and outcome-oriented, with the needs of the client as independent thinker always kept centre stage. I coach teams as well as individuals, working in a systemic way to improve performance and effectiveness.

I have a wealth of experience to offer, such as navigating large professional services firms, building a book of clients, founding a new business, building a positive workplace culture, being resilient and defining personal and corporate values.
