Executive coaching and leadership development for CEOs and startup founders
My tailored leadership development and executive coaching programmes support business leaders and professionals with their specific challenges and objectives, and milestone career transition.
I’m a certified and accredited leadership and executive coach and mentor, a seasoned corporate leader, board advisor, and a member of the Trusted Coach Directory.
Here’s what I bring to the table:
Business leadership
I’ve enjoyed a decades-long career as a board advisor, Chair, CEO, MD, interim director, and senior executive in publishing, PR, distribution, sales agency, and B2B vendor services.
Coaching credentials
I’m certified and accredited, holding an ILM Level 7 Certificate in Executive Coaching and Mentoring. I’m a member of the EMCC, Trusted Coach Directory, Edtech Hub Network, and IPG.
Tailored programmes
My personalised executive coaching, career coaching, and mentoring programmes are designed to support your specific business and leadership challenges and goals, and pivotal career change.
Collaborative approach
I ask challenging questions that sometimes take my clients outside their comfort zone, but always with support, empathy and trust, and an often-needed sense of humour!
Level up your leadership
Even experienced CEOs, C-suite executives, and company directors can find navigating the demands of business and leadership lonely and isolating. For first-time CEOs and startup founders, these challenges — often including Imposter Syndrome — feel even more overwhelming and stressful.
Ready to lead through change?
You may be a first-time CEO, C-suite executive, or startup founder who is building a new and diverse management team. Perhaps you’re a seasoned leader, facing challenges that require you to plan and implement change. You may be a CEO looking to optimise the value in your business in preparation for a sale.
Whatever your situation, my tailored executive coaching packages can provide the tools you need to help you deal with these complexities.
About me
Who do you confide in when you need to share ideas? Who questions your assumptions and identifies areas for improvement? Who unlocks your potential to achieve your specific business, leadership development, and career goals? That’s where I step in!
I’m an experienced CEO, MD, and startup founder; I understand the pressures under which senior executives operate. I’m my clients’ sounding board and trusted leadership co-pilot!
My services include:
Accelerator coaching
You may be a newly appointed C-Suite executive transitioning to your new role. Or a CEO preparing for a sale or integrating an acquisition. You may need to re-engineer or resize your business to reflect challenging market conditions. You may even be experiencing imposter syndrome.
First-time CEO coaching
As a first-time CEO stepping up from a functional management role, you’ll need to shift your mindset. You’re expected to set the strategic direction of the company, manage diverse stakeholders, and make high-stakes decisions; all the while leading a team and maintaining your vision.
Startup founder coaching
As a startup founder, you’re driven by passion and an ambitious vision. However, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by competing priorities, navigating rapid growth, securing funding, managing a team, and balancing well-being with the relentless demands of building a new business.
Career coaching
You may be contemplating a career change or aiming for advancement in your current role. Career coaching helps you navigate this journey by providing personalised guidance, support, and objective advice, empowering you to make informed decisions about your career.
Testimonials
Di Page, Director – Critical Publishing
“Tim mentored myself and my fellow director for a number of years which were very tricky due to the pandemic. We found him very easy to work with. He was always well-prepared, structured our meetings well and provided excellent insights as well as challenging our assumptions. He was definitely an asset to the business and I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim as a coach or mentor to others.”
Richard Davies, Founder & MD – First Line Family Law
“I had the pleasure of working with Tim shortly before I opened my own law practice and during the initial months of the business. His coaching was offered appropriately, respectfully, and always with good humour, and he was not afraid to broach difficult issues to achieve the best outcome… I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim as a coach or mentor (and have done on several occasions).”
CEO & Executive Chair – UK media distribution firm
“Just wanted to thank you for our recent sessions. I found the whole process enjoyable and fulfilling. You provided a platform that allowed my thoughts to breath. A coach’s role is basically to enable the subject to find within themselves what they need to proceed, and I feel you did this very effectively. I have a renewed energy and satisfaction with my present.“
