I set up, lead and develop the Coaching Focus Group as a coaching led consultancy that helps organisations develop high performance workplace cultures. To be successful, these culture change programs require executive sponsorship and enlightened leadership. I work with and support forward-looking business leaders and Senior HR and L&D professionals who recognise the value of a coaching culture to achieve transformational change and skills development in themselves, and in their leadership team.Recent project examples: • three emergency services - introduced and supported a coaching mindset shift, training, resourcing and support leading to more creative interpretations of intelligence gathered • an international standards organisation - supported their shift to increased customer focus by developing a coaching culture across 150 managers, leading to improved customer satisfaction • the UK franchise management team of a global fast-food chain - working with them to develop their mindset and leadership styles from the top table down, enabling new initiatives to be conceived and executed, such as a major change in their meal distribution strategy • a top international technical publisher - worked with their global team to develop an improved method of new business generation including increased employee engagement • a leading food retail giant – worked with the UK leadership team to transition into new roles and ways of working which delivered outstanding performance improvements over 2 years. Business issues that clients and prospects typically experience prior to talking with me, which I work to resolve, include: • missed performance figures • inflexibility in responding to rapid market changes • poor collaboration and in-fighting between departments • protracted timescales to launch new initiatives • lack of customer focus / too much focus on internal procedures✉ trayton@coaching-focus.com ☎ 07977 421533

I have pioneered and led the development of a web-based Coaching Management System, mye-coach. The platform now supports over 80 organisations and thousands of users, many on an ongoing subscription licence.During my previous roles I realised that there were many challenges to performance improvement and to the delivery of coaching and embedding coaching as a culture, including:- enabling individuals to fit their training around a very busy operational role (with fires to fight)- providing the reinforcement and repetition of basics so that individuals can have tailored educational pathways- reducing the cost of delivery to make the core skills more affordable to organisations of all sizes- providing a just-in-time support or guidance to people on an ad-hoc basis as they face challenging situations- providing easy access to experienced consultants across the UK to enable clients to match needs with experiencedAdditional functionality has been scoped, designed, built and added to the system over the past decade so that mye-coach today provides:- Organisations with a means of viewing and managing the coaching and mentoring activity undertaken by external and/or internal coaches, thus helping to facilitate coaching for all.- Coaches/Mentors with a professional and consistent approach when conducting the process and interactions that surround a coaching relationship, whilst also providing an extensive range of coaching tools and resources.- Coachees with easy access to quality assured coaches and/or mentors, a structured and focused approach to support the realisation of their performance objectives and confidence that their development activity has purpose and meaning.Example clients include: • An emergency service with 15 regions who can identify local/regional internal coaches to support their coaching and mentoring needs. • A national retailer uses mye-coach to support 200 internal coaches. ✉ trayton@coaching-focus.com
