What I do
What I do for business leaders and teams.
The questions people bring me
Are you grappling with a difficult issue at work? Trying to find time and headspace to forward plan? Need a trusted person to talk to? Or looking for ways to get the most out of your team? These are the issues I have tackled for over 30 years and now help leaders and teams do the same.
How the coaching works
I have carefully designed my Executive Coaching programmes to help leaders navigate challenges, clarify goals, and build strategies for immediate impact. Through deep conversations, reflective exercises, and actionable frameworks, I help leaders grow and get more out of their teams than ever before.

For organisations
Culture, change and interim leadership
Leadership development, culture, crisis management and interim CEO work, through Cloud 9 Business Solutions. I support businesses to create resilience and better productivity by reviewing their people, their processes, and the mindset: the appetite for risk, the ambition, the drive, the growth plans. This is where I work with organisations rather than with individuals and teams.
For leaders
One-on-one leadership coaching
I offer personalised one-on-one coaching programmes, in person or online, to help leaders unlock new levels of professional performance. Specialising in Executive Coaching for leadership, building resilience, and confidence, these sessions involve deep introspective conversations, reflective exercises and teaching of actionable frameworks to unlock new levels of performance quickly.
For teams
Workshops for teams
I also conduct training and workshops to unlock the potential of teams. My sessions focus on creating a culture of ownership, improving productivity, streamlining processes, and ensuring everyone is aligned on business goals. I have a skill for unlocking growth from large teams and have condensed these lessons into actionable workshops that have proved very powerful for clients time and time again.
Why I coach
It is lonely at the top. It does not have to be.
I became a coach because I know how lonely it can be at an Executive level. I also know how uncomfortable it can feel between the rock and a hard place of board and team, or long-term strategy and day-to-day firefighting.
I really needed that confidential trusted peer-to-peer place to turn, which I found invaluable to both my personal performance and my well-being. That is why I undertook high level training as an executive coach and created my coaching programme.
Kind words from my clients
Coaching is confidential, so my clients are described by role and sector rather than by name.
