WHO WE ARE
About Us
We are a not-for-profit group of NHS professionals, including NHS Consultants and GPs, who have provided executive coaching and mentoring services to more than 3000 professional clients since 2008 to enable them to successfully manage their working lives.
We specialise in holistic coaching of professionals which not only includes leadership skills and personal development but considers work-life balance and prioritises well-being. It is our belief, supported by research, that engagement and achievement in the workplace is best achieved when one's personal life is also thriving. Coaching helps people to take charge of their own development, release their potential, and to make positive changes in both their professional and personal lives.
Through our years of collective experience, we understand what it is like to work in a highly pressurised, unpredictable environments, such as the NHS, where one has to deal with the structures and processes, the demands and the constraints. Through our combined medical and coaching knowledge we are uniquely placed to provide holistic and well-being coaching to professionals.
Each of our coaches hold substantial qualifications in Coaching and Mentoring which are widely recognised throughout the coaching industry, (eg via ILM, ICF, EMCC) and we provide group supervision and CPD for all of our coaches.
We adhere to the EMCC code of practice and the GMC's Good Medical Practice. All coaching and mentoring sessions are confidential.
