RISE COACH
Leadership Coaching · Coaching Supervision

Space to think.
Time to reflect.

Thoughtful, experienced support for leaders and coaches who want the space to think clearly, reflect on what matters and move forward with confidence.

“Coaching helps people to think. Through conversation, listening, questioning and reflection, it creates space to find better ways forward.”

Leadership Coaching

Support for leaders navigating change, challenge and responsibility

For senior and emerging leaders

Stepping into a senior leadership role can be exciting and demanding. The pressure to deliver results, lead others and make complex decisions can create a lot of noise.

Coaching gives you a confidential space to think, test ideas, explore difficult situations and develop your own way of leading.

A personalised approach

There is no single model of good leadership. We work with your goals, values, strengths, organisation and circumstances rather than forcing you into a prescribed formula.

Typical themes include confidence, executive presence, strategic thinking, decision-making, influence, communication, relationships and leading through change.

Coaching Supervision

A reflective space for your coaching practice

Reflect

Supervision gives you time to step away from the immediacy of client work and look at your coaching practice with fresh eyes.

We can explore challenging cases, ethical questions, boundaries, patterns in your work and anything that is affecting your confidence or effectiveness as a coach.

Develop

My approach is supportive, collaborative and non-judgemental. I bring perspective, curiosity, empathy and appropriate challenge rather than telling you how you should coach.

The aim is to help you gain insight, develop your practice and remain at your best for your clients.

I’m Gary, a Leadership Coach and Coaching Supervisor. Before building my coaching practice, I spent many years working in senior roles across technology, consulting, solution and service environments.

My work has taken me into large organisations and complex situations, but the part I have always valued most is helping people think — creating the conditions for thoughtful, purposeful conversations that allow people to find their own way forward.

I support professionals at different stages in their careers, from people moving into senior leadership roles to experienced coaches who want a reflective space for their own practice.

My style is calm, collaborative and spacious, with challenge where it is useful and without judgement.
