After more than 25 years in the field – first, as a leader, and for more than a decade as a coach, facilitator and trusted partner to organisations – I have become convinced of one thing:
The complexity facing leaders today asks far more of us than expertise, strategy and technical skill alone.
It asks us to grow our capacity like never before for challenges none of us can fully foresee: to thrive in uncertainty, cultivate trust even in the most demanding conditions, have courageous conversations that take us well beyond what feels comfortable, unlock creativity and innovation, and lead in ways that bring out the very best in others.
In my bespoke partnerships with organsations, we co-create more creative and regenerative ways of leading, working and relating – supporting leaders and teams to develop the courage, humanity and leadership capacity needed to navigate complexity, lead change and bring their most important work into the world.
The work delivered spans executive and leadership coaching, leadership development, coaching cultures, women's leadership, and organisation-wide programmes designed to create meaningful and lasting change from the inside out.
My organisational work is grounded in these core principles:
Rooted in participation, reflection and real-world application
Designed around your organisation's unique context, culture and aspirations
Focused on developing self-awareness, relational intelligence and leadership capacity
Creating the conditions for trust, courage, creativity and meaningful dialogue
Supporting leaders to bring more of their humanity, authenticity and wisdom to their work
Embedding learning over time through coaching, reflection and practice
I collaborate with a number of highly experienced and skilled co-creators for larger scale projects.
“Claire has partnered with us on our programme for high potential leaders for the past two years. Claire worked with half the participants each year as their coach, and played a key role in shaping the programme, always generous and proactive with her expertise. Claire is a joy to collaborate with and the feedback from the participants she coached was outstanding. Her intuition, warmth and ability to create an environment where individuals can truly bring the best of themselves created many breakthroughs. Claire has also designed and run learning programmes for our wider team on authentic leadership, and delivered brilliant results. She is passionate about the work she does and empowers people to achieve the growth they desire for the benefit of them, the business and our customers. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any organisation looking to grow their leadership capability.”
