1 on 1 Executive Coaching

Good enough leadership is not “good enough” anymore.


Technical or functional excellence alone is not good enough.

We are living in unprecedented times, the world is increasing in volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. EXPONENTIALLY.

For Leaders who Aspire to Exceptional

The most successful people and businesses recognise the need to continuously adapt and grow to stay relevant in the long term. The modern leader must consistently learn and evolve. Not just in technical ability but in leadership abilities.

You need precise intuition to make quick and profitable decisions, strong vision and purpose to get you and your team where you need to be, and you must be flexible and agile to get there – radically agile to keep up with the pace of change.

This is for Leaders Who
  • Are navigating a challenging phase and want crystal clear clarity on the Vision, Purpose and Strategy that will bring a new phase of success in their life that makes them feel alive again.

  • Have hit a road block and feel that there is an invisible ceiling holding them back from their full potential. They’re ready to smash through it and keep climbing.

  • Aspire to be exceptional and want to consistently know how to intuitively lead high performing teams and companies. They’re done with average and they’re ready to innovate, create and inspire for extraordinary results.

  • Need to develop, uplevel and integrate into their day to day work life specific leadership skills that are essential to them realising their full leadership potential.

Outcomes
  • Lead with energy, intuition, vision and strategy, allowing you to effortlessly influence your team towards excellence, where everyone rises up to the mission together. And exceptional results flow as a natural consequence. 

  • Smart and fast risk assessment and decision making, combining intuition and rationale flawlessly, so that you know what to and when to do it for maximum business impact.

  • Learn how to maximise productivity and create space, by identifying and focusing on the RIGHT things that create maximum impact.

  • Develop all aspects of your mind mastery and emotional self-regulation, as a leader. Emotional intelligence is a key ingredient in star team leadership performance and success.

  • Develop complete clarity and vision about what you want to achieve as a leader, and your bigger career purpose.

How it works
  • I work with you over a 6 or 12 month period, dependent on individual situation and the desired objective(s) that you want to achieve from the coaching engagement

  • Sessions are delivered over videoconference every 2 weeks (in person available on request, for London based clients)

  • After every coaching session, you will have simple, bite sized action steps to follow, that are designed to accelerate your growth necessary for the attainment of your objectives.

  • You will have access to a learning portal with resources and workbooks to support you.

To ensure quality of delivery for my one to one clients, spaces are limited.

I’ve never had any formal executive leadership coaching. However, when Sara contacted me, I was ready to give it a shot. It turned out to be a great decision. The best thing about Sara is that she works hard to understand who you are as a human being, not just as a leader. What started out for me as a professional experiment turned into a personal journey of self discovery which has been helpful across all aspects of my life. As a result, Sara has honed a toolbox of skills within me to help deal with a vast array of leadership challenges. I’ve made tangible changes to how I approach various aspects of my role including coaching direct reports to maximize their potential, changing the way I approach decision making and problem solving as a leader, diversifying my thinking and the team, and understanding the difference between useful and useless anxiety. I’ve been so impressed with Sara that she is now coaching other key people within my studio and already they are seeing tangible results too. I would recommend Sara without hesitation to anyone who is looking to coach either themselves or members of their organization. She will not disappoint!

Nearly 8 months ago, Sara reached out to me via LinkedIn. There was something in her message and posts that intrigued me…that caught my attention. I had been working for a company for about a year and a half and knew it was not where I would want to spend the rest of my career….the fit just wasn’t right. I had considered seeking a coach to help navigate my situation as I wanted some guidance through the process and Sara's message was very timely. I would say that my initial thoughts around coaching was to help guide…support me through job transition. The coaching has indeed helped me through my transition, but I have gained much more. I have worked with a few coaches in the past and Sara's approach is so much more personable…and very comfortable. Each session has been very applicable and timely….and very individualized. Sara does not take the “textbook” approach. At the end of each session, I truly feel that progress is made, and I believe it is through a unique approach of storytelling and the way in which Sara asks questions. The dialog is always very comfortable, and we discuss things beyond surface level. With other coaches, I felt that they simply recited a book they had read or just scratched the surface in an area. For someone like me that may not initially want to share much, Sara quickly developed my trust which has resulted in a much more productive experience. I love seeing results. I definitely have a renewed level of confidence… which has carried over into not only my professional life by my personal life as well. After having nearly 2 decades of a successful career, I was in a bit of a slump. I wasn’t feeling challenged, rewarded or honestly that I was with the right company. I knew I wanted….needed to make a change, but to be honest I was scared that I would make a bad decision…again….and didn’t want to risk failure. Over the last several months, we have spent a lot of time understanding the roots my thoughts but it was with her simple exercises and rewiring and retraining of the mind that I confidently was able to make a recent professional change. Early on, Sara made a statement…it is important to know what you are running to…. and not just away from. Her coaching and guidance helped me determine what was must important to me, challenged my responses when they were surface level, and coached me to design a plan of action. But most importantly the rewiring of the brain allowed me to confidently execute the plan. I am looking to continue to work with Sara individually as well as through another group session. Sara makes our sessions comfortable, she truly cares about her clients and coaching them to success…whatever that might look like. She has helped me improve and reach my goals, rather than just simply offering guidance and recommendations. She is a true coach. I have and I will continue to recommend Sara. I have been asked how I found Sara, seeing as you are in Europe and I am in the US…and why I would have selected her over someone local. I always respond that I felt the connection early on through our early discussions and after researching and reviewing her work, I believed her approach was ideal for me. But it is the growth that I have seen in myself, an igniting of confidence and energy that is the real reason I would recommend her. Her methodology works and I've seen a large return on my investment.

I wanted to do coaching because you do get to a point where you start to plateau. And as soon as I felt that, I thought, I've got to find some way of having a learning mechanism for myself to develop further. Right from the start, I could just see that Sara gets me, understands what my pain points are, and has business experience herself. A lot of coaches that I've been told about or come across don't have that. They are almost academic. And I think what I found with Sara was that she’s done all of that entrepreneur experience, and has then decided to go into coaching. Because that's then relatable to me. I thought we would be much more superficial in dealing with challenges and new learnings, but I found myself unearthing unexpected things. Sometimes it's like working with a diagnostician. It was really profound to learn that these, even, childhood influences, and people around you have such a profound effect in how you see the world. And I think a lot of that is this huge, revelatory kind of moment where you're like, "that's why I do that. Let’s choose to do different." I think some of the big tangible highlights for me were stopping always chasing revenue growth (something that has been a really difficult thing to change). And a refocus towards profitability, rather than chasing revenue, that was really useful to me, because that was part of my real growth through this process. And one of the other really big ones, I think, has been the way I coach others. So coaching other people through a lot of their issues, and a lot of my teams, I'm often spending a lot of effort coaching them. But now I have a step formula that I picked up from our work on how I do that. Whereas before, it was very haphazard. I was spending hours with different team members, and meaning well, but probably, just haphazardly trying to coach them. It saves me a lot of time, it's appreciated, and it has really great results. Sara gets the business world and gets the coaching world. She’s invested heavily into improving herself. So, anyone with a growth mindset will really benefit from that, because you're pairing up, with someone who's got a growth mindset themselves, and, and really understands that they've got to be building themselves up further and further. Learning never stops. I can recommend that Sara is someone who's able to bring the best out in people. I think that's a natural ability. I think some people are born with it. And she’s recognized that and is able to really utilize it, in a way that relates directly to the business environment.
