Leadership Coaching

Gain clarity and confidence in your leadership capabilities

At Being Leaders, we specialise in transforming leaders from feeling overworked and overwhelmed to becoming incredibly impactful. Our Leadership Coaching program is designed to guide emerging and senior leaders through the critical transitions and challenges they face. Leaders emerge on the other side with clarity and confidence in their authentic leadership style, fully embracing their role and capabilities as Leaders of Leaders.

Transitioning into a Leader of Leaders

As an emerging leader, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed and unprepared for the new responsibilities and challenges of leading other leaders. The transition from managing a team to leading multiple teams or departments is complex and demanding, leaving many leaders feeling out of their depth.

This transition often results in increased stress, longer working hours, and a sense of being constantly behind. The expectations are higher, and the skills that made you successful before are no longer sufficient. This can lead to burnout, decreased performance, and even questioning your ability to lead effectively. The struggle to balance strategic oversight with hands-on management can feel like an insurmountable obstacle, impacting your confidence and overall well-being.

At Being Leaders, our Leadership Coaching program is specifically designed to address these challenges. We guide emerging leaders through this critical transition, helping them develop the clarity and confidence needed to thrive in their new role. Our tailored coaching sessions focus on building authentic leadership styles, freeing up time to work on high-impact strategy and projects through effective delegation, enhancing strategic thinking, effectively managing multiple teams, and having strategic influence within the organisation. With our support, you’ll transform from feeling overwhelmed to becoming a powerful and influential Leader of Leaders, ready to make a lasting impact.

Our Philosophy

At the heart of our coaching is a deep respect for the individuality and potential of every leader. We believe in empowering leaders to observe themselves and their environment, fostering growth through new perspectives and actions. Our goal is not to "fix" you but to help you discover and develop your unique leadership style. Our coaching helps to create clarity, amongst competing priorities, busy schedules and complex relationships.

True leadership development is a profound and ongoing journey. Our coaching philosophy is rooted in the following key principles:

Respect for Individuality: Every leader is unique, with distinct strengths, experiences, and potential. We honour this individuality by providing personalised coaching that respects your unique way-of-being. This approach acknowledges that human beings are more complex than any theory can capture, and it respects the learning and decisions made in the past.

Self-Observation and Adaptation: Effective leadership begins with self-awareness. We help leaders become better observers of themselves, fostering a deeper understanding of their way-of-being. This includes paying attention to language, emotions, and physical states, which together form a dynamic system influencing leadership behaviour and impact.

Empowerment Through Growth: Our goal is to empower leaders to see new possibilities for growth and action. We encourage leaders to shift their perspectives and adapt their way-of-being to meet the challenges of their roles. This includes creating environments where leaders can exercise their leadership muscles, make decisions, take actions and learn from their experiences.

Holistic Development: Leadership is not just about skills and knowledge but involves the whole person. We integrate various traditions, disciplines, and experiences to provide coaching that is both profound and practical. This holistic approach ensures that leaders grow in their ability to observe, take responsibility, and develop the courage to make necessary changes.

Creating Space for Leadership: We advocate for creating "sandboxes" where leaders can operate with clear responsibilities, accountability, and authority. This space allows leaders to lead effectively while making room for creativity and innovation. It also helps in identifying and nurturing the next generation of leaders.

Continuous Learning and Adaptation: The journey of becoming a leader of leaders is ongoing. We support leaders in adapting to new roles, integrating their teams' efforts into the larger organisation, and staying relevant in a constantly changing environment. This continuous learning process is vital for sustained leadership success.

We believe in unlocking each leader's potential through respect, self-observation, introducing new tools and strategies, and the development of the whole self. We are committed to guiding leaders on their unique journeys, helping them to thrive and make a significant impact in their organisations and beyond.
