Leadership coaching skills for leaders in education
You will develop your own leadership as both a living philosophy and a robust professional practice, enhance your practical leadership skills to unlock greater creativity and initiative in the people you work with; and achieve wellbeing and performance for the team or organisation.
Principles
Our work is based on three hugely powerful principles:
Potential – we all have amazing potential
Leadership – leadership grows our potential
Learning – learning is the path of real leadership

Executive Coaching
Successful leaders are often looking for fresh perspectives to further enhance vitality and performance, both in themselves and in the teams and organisations they lead.
Executive coaching is bespoke, tailored to your own experience and priorities. Your coach helps you to reflect seriously on your own current context, challenges and leadership and to find ways forward that are creative, robust and motivating for all involved.
“I started working with Paul as a new headteacher and can honestly say that I was able to thrive and not just survive! Now, several years later, I continue to develop my own leadership and coaching skills with Paul and have also received fantastic 1:1 coaching…As a school leader I wouldn’t be without a coach.”
