Executive and leadership development coaching

"Leadership: the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it" Dwight D. Eisenhower

Sam currently provides executive and leadership development coaching for Astellas Pharma Ltd. Sam also has experience of providing coaching to Pfizer Ltd. Sam is well versed in business communication, leadership and interpersonal relationships. Sam enjoys coaching individuals in organisations to improve morale, self-awareness, relationships, team-building, communication, work life balance and leadership capacity.

Sam believes people are the business and people, not processes, contribute the most to the success or failure of an organisation. The potential of any business is a function of the people in the business.

Businesses today are facing changes that are happening at an incredibly exponential rate. Businesses have to perform a difficult and sometimes seemingly impossible juggling act. They have to employ high-performing, self-motivated staff, manage the day-to-day affairs of the company, plan for the future and keep customers, employees and investors satisfied. Increasingly, businesses are finding it difficult to achieve, gain and maintain a competitive advantage.

The coaching involved is about developing character, personal maturity, ethics and vision. It is about an individual becoming the best human being possible. The foundation of the executive/leadership coaching experience lies in the coachee’s discovery of his or her true self and building a sense of community within a company and with clients. Applying such wisdom to business is likely to result in good client and employee relationships, as well as increased market share and productivity.

The organisation of the 21st century has to become a team of people with well-developed interpersonal and communication skills. These individuals should understand appreciate differences, trust and support each and work with commitment and energy. Executive/leadership coaching can play a vital part in these transformational changes and can result in:

Go to the people. Learn from them. Live with them. Start with what they know. Build with what they have. The best of leaders when the job is done, when the task is accomplished, the people will say we have done it ourselves. Lao Tzu

Could you benefit from coaching?

Do any of the following apply to you?

What is coaching?

Coaching is a catalyst for change and transformation and is allowing people to achieve goals and dreams they previously thought impossible.

As most of us know, changing old patterns and habits can be difficult, even when we recognise that they are disadvantaging us or holding us back.

That is what is so great about coaching, it works by encouraging people to find their own answers to their own problems, then – crucially – giving them the individual support they need to see their ideas through to fruition.

Benefits of coaching

My clients work with me, because I continue to coach, empower and transform them to achieve the following:

How coaching works

Coaching is usually done over the phone or face-to-face, both techniques are very effective. I generally coach clients weekly for either 35 minutes, 50 minutes or 1 hour sessions. If you choose to have a telephone coaching session, you arrange to phone the coach at a regular specified time.

All potential clients can have a (non-obligation) complimentary 20 minute introduction to coaching on the telephone.

If you feel comfortable working with me after the complimentary session and would like to pursue the coaching relationship, we discuss how you would like to be coached, what duration of coaching you require per month and you will be sent a Welcome pack. The pack includes some exercises for you to complete before the first coaching session to get an understanding of who you are and what you would like to achieve, enabling you to get the full benefit from the sessions.

The coaching is payable one month in advance. If you book your coaching several months in advance, discounts are available.

My client usually working with me for a minimum of 3 months, because this enables the change process to take effect. Generally, clients choose to be coached for between 3 months to 1 year, sometimes even longer. It is always up to the client to choose what you want to do.

What is the difference between Coaching and Counselling?

Counseling is more remedial and concentrates on healing issues from the past, while life coaching works by helping clients to be more aware of who they are, what they would like and setting goals and actions to achieve them.
