Executive CoachingSenior executives and leaders of teams are often expected to have all the answers to all the questions. From the board or from their team, the pressure to be available, to be knowledgeable, to be brilliant under all conditions, brings stresses and strains that can sap the energy and productivity of even the most capable executive.We help Senior Executives pause, reflect and tap into their innate wisdom and creativity. Through holding the right space of non-judgemental questioning, curiosity about all aspects of the situation, and providing a listening ear, we enable the inner wisdom and the experience of the person to provide their own answers to whatever issues are currently at play.Team CoachingTeam coaching is about journeying with a team, over time as the team develops:- collective purpose and goals- a unique team identity- agreement on team values and behaviours- a deeper awareness of self, each other and their stakeholders- a psychologically safe space where no one feels threatened and relationships are developed in the interests of the team- new ways of working, including how teams conduct meetings, make decisions and engage with their key stakeholders- a transformative mindset that encourages the team to think differently about how they create, innovate, learn and support each otheriHeartiHEART is a non-profit organisation dedicated to helping all people realise their potential through learning about the innate resilience and mental health.
