Developing yourself

Developing yourself through executive coaching

How much time and effort do you spend on developing yourself or developing your career?

Ambitious people work hard at improving themselves, and their team, to get to (and stay at) the top. They also work with others – executive coaches – in order to be challenged, gain perspective and insight.

Through 1-1 sessions, in person or on Skype, and with access to a vast range of psychological tools to help you, bfpeople’s psychologists and executive coaches will create rapid and lasting change through any of the above areas and many more.

“I’ve become a more effective and confident leader from my coaching sessions with John.  On the one side his approach has challenged me and made me think about how my behaviour and actions can impact on others which can be uncomfortable; on the other he has opened my mind to new ideas to help me become more resilient and self aware.   Through using the recommended tools and techniques as part of my working day I feel I am making a difference in my organisation and most importantly I am happier.”

Senior local government officer

Those at the top of the mountain didn’t fall there”

Vince Lombardi

A bfpeople coaching programme will offer you:

  • totally objective and unbiased support to help you maximise your capabilities and fulfil your potential
  • a totally bespoke programme focusing only on your needs and requirements – not a generic training course
  • identification of internal blind spots and weaknesses
  • improved team work, communication and performance
  • increased effectiveness and job satisfaction
  • better relationships with managers, colleagues or staff
  • support through major change e.g. redundancy or career change
  • access to a wide range of psychometric assessments

There’s only one corner of the universe that you can be certain of changing, and that’s your own self.”

Aldous Huxley

What is executive coaching?

It is not life coaching or therapy. We’re not interested in hours of navel-gazing and analysis of your childhood. Our coaching is solutions-focused and provides hands-on support for experienced individuals and teams who can benefit from an independent, confidential, view point at key moments.

Most projects are sponsored by employers, but we do work with ambitious individuals who want to make changes. Programmes are short and focused – usually 3 -6 sessions – we do not work with people on open-ended projects.

Still not convinced that coaching is appropriate for you?

Take look at this video in which Eric Schmidt, the founder of Google, explains why he thinks everyone should have an executive coach.

We work with ambitious people who want to reach, or stay at, the top. If you’re ready to invest in yourself and your career call bfpeople on 0333 202 2225, or click below to get started.
