The Benefits of Coaching
Coaching is about discovery, awareness and choice. It's a powerful intervention that can help you:
- Develop your emotional intelligence
- Grow and stretch outside of your comfort zone
- Lead global teams towards high performance
- Foster collaborative and innovative cultures
- Resolve conflict and navigate emotionally challenging situations
- Increase your level of confidence and wellbeing
- Increase knowledge of your strengths and challenges
- Maintain motivation on actions where you have previously given up
A typical starting point could be to enquire about aspects in your work and life that aren’t working optimally. This could be in terms of a disengaged team, challenging clients, a feeling of overwhelm or a lack of personal satisfaction and achievement. My role is to assist in bringing these issues to the surface so they can be resolved once and for all.
Expertise and Qualifications
As a qualified Corporate & Executive Coach, and NLP Practitioner, I dedicated myself full-time to coaching and leadership development in 2013. Before transitioning to coaching, I spent 17 years leading strategic projects in professional and financial services honing my skills in project delivery, team leadership and emotional intelligence. This background allows me to coach a diverse range of global clients from project and change managers to top executives.
My clients experience me as supportive, pragmatic and a great listener—qualities that enable me to quickly build trust and foster collaborative relationships. With a focus on supporting high-performing managers and executives, I excel at helping people rethink how they lead global teams, handle challenging conversations and stay on the healthy side of stress. Aa a result, not only do they hone their own skills, they also learn to pass the gift of leadership and self-awareness on to the teams they manage.

We would not have gotten there without Susanne’s guidance
"I have been coaching with Susanne for almost a year and what a difference this has made for my company. Susanne helped us review our processes and think different about our work flow. This has been the best business move I have ever made and we would not have gotten there without Susanne’s guidance and simplification of what we were delivering."
