Executive Coaching

One-to-one and team coaching

How we help leaders and teams

Through our 1-1 and team coaching, we work closely with senior leaders to help them navigate and make sense of complexity and challenges with confidence, authenticity, and humanity.

Some of the areas where we focus include:

  • Navigating the messiness of relationships – managing power dynamics within organisational systems and building strong, impactful relationships.
  • Aligning people, purpose, and performance – connecting personal values with the broader team and organisational goals to create a sense of purpose that drives performance and engagement.
  • Supporting leadership transitions – preparing rising talent for bigger roles and helping them navigate these pivotal moments with impact, credibility, and confidence in their own voice.
  • Building bold, brave teams – improving communication, deepening trust, and creating the psychological safety needed for people to work at their best, especially when the pressure is on.

Nuts and bolts

To enable the highest impact and opportunity to achieve the change you are looking for, we recommend a commitment to a programme of six coaching sessions of up to 1.5 hours in length.

These are our recommended touchpoints across the programme:

  • Initial chemistry meeting
  • Initial three-way meeting
  • Evaluation

Our approach

Working at the forefront of both coaching and mentoring, we support organisations across the world to develop, grow and enhance their capability in these powerful development areas.  Our breadth of expertise in this exciting and complex space is drawn from a depth of experience in being executive coach-mentors, academic research and from having supported many organisations to create a successful internal coaching and mentoring capability.

All of our coaches have a wealth of experience and expertise and bring a high level of qualification/accreditation.  They are members of professional bodies including EMCC, ICF, and AC and undergo coaching supervision themselves.  They use different coaching techniques including the Co-Active Model, Positive Psychology, Time to Think, NLP, and various psychometric tools (including Hogan, MBTI, TKI, OPQ) if appropriate.

In their words...

"For Dudley [Building Society] this was a first. Never before had we put a group through a coaching programme like this and it was something of an experiment. However, since the Board had agreed that developing our own was strategically important, we trusted our people with The Conversation Space. It has worked. There has been a huge improvement from the individuals concerned. They are more confident, better able to communicate and seem to understand more deeply the responsibilities they all carry. A success? Yes, definitely. "
