Leadership Coaching

When success requires different skills

As you gain seniority and climb up the ranks, your success is no longer just about technical expertise.

Your performance as a leader hinges increasingly on your people skills, your ability to manage teams, to influence and communicate effectively.

At this level of your career, new tools are needed to help you build the resilience required to deal with the pressure that comes with more responsibilities and complex decision-making.

You might face specific challenges in a new role, perhaps coming in as a new manager in an organisation that is being restructured. Or seeking fresh ways to develop your leadership and contribute in a more impactful way to your organisation.

And in addition to all that, balancing ambition with your wellbeing and your personal life also comes into the equation.

Being a great leader is not solely about driving income and profit.

As we enter the age of AI, what will set you apart as a great leader will be your human qualities, cross-thinking and the courage to make a meaningful impact on your company and the people you work with.

This is where Leadership Coaching comes in. As your Executive Coach, I provide you with the space to work on your professional growth so you can confidently grow into the leader you want to be.

When you develop a greater understanding of your strengths, your blind spots, your emotional reactions, your handling of stress and uncertainty, you become more equipped to put in place new solutions.

When you develop a greater understanding of your environment, who you work with, what’s the context in which you are operating, you empower the people around you and you focus on what matters to grow your business.

Two coaching options tailored to your needs

Leadership Focus 90-minute Session

For a specific management or leadership challenge - available for individuals

Session description:

  • A 90-minute coaching session to discuss a specific management challenge in your current role. A focused and solution-oriented discussion.

This is for you if:

  • You are facing a specific situation at work — a new management structure, a looming reorganisation, a stalled promotion or a difficult dynamic with a team member or a colleague — and you want to think it through properly before you decide what to do

  • You’ve tried asking friends and colleagues for advice but it hasn’t really helped you. You want to work with someone who’s removed from the situation and can help you look at different perspectives and the options you have

  • You are looking at gaining not solely fresh insights of what is really blocking you but also practical solutions you can implement immediately

Client stories & testimonials

Here’s the testimonial of one of my clients, an Investment Director at a leading Wealth & Investment Group.

Recently promoted, she came to me to work on her leadership, communication and influencing skills, in the context of building her seniority both internally and externally on board positions where she represents the fund.

She’s the only woman in her team, frequently the only woman on the boards where she sits and a mom to a 3-year old.

“Laurence has been instrumental in allowing me the time and space to think through some of the key career hurdles and questioning I have had over the past year.

Given her own career background she has been able to swiftly understand the issues that I regularly encounter as part of my role as an investment professional in private equity.

But more importantly, she has been able to find the right questions to ask in order for me to take a step back, look at the whole picture and unpack the origin of my challenges and figure out options to navigate through them.

Her approach is very much to act as guide and let me come up with responses / solutions that could work for me, rather than try and give me boilerplate answers.”


This is the testimonial of my client Juli, Head of Service in one of London’s biggest councils.

She came to me as she was transitioning into a bigger role in a new organisation, going from team head to global head.

We worked together as part of her ramp-up in her new position for 6 months.

“The transition from Team Manager to Head of Service, alongside joining a new Council, brought both exciting opportunities and new challenges.

Coaching with Laurence gave me dedicated time to reflect on my leadership style, manage the complexities of leading multiple teams and work through issues as they arose.

It played an important role in building my confidence and helping me establish myself quickly and effectively in my new role.”
