I specialise in supporting clients in these key areas:

  • Succeeding in a new senior leadership role

  • Strategic career progression

  • Leading through change & uncertainty

  • Developing an authentic leadership style

  • Sustainable performance & personal capacity

  • High-performing team development

My Approach: Professional Rigour, Personal Partnership

I provide a dedicated, one-to-one partnership that goes beyond standard coaching. I don't believe in "off-the-shelf" solutions: instead, I offer a focused, tailored 1 to 1 space to help you navigate the complexities of senior leadership and to thrive.

The Three Pillars of My Coaching

Professional Rigour: Grounded in 20 years of leadership experience and Association for Coaching accreditation. My work is evidence-based, ensuring that our sessions translate into measurable professional growth and effective decision-making.

A Reflective Space: Leadership is often fast-paced and high-pressure. I provide a confidential, "no-judgement" space to step back from the daily noise, untangle challenging situations, and gain clarity and confidence in your next move.

Sustainable Action: We move beyond just "talking" to identify practical, realistic steps. We focus on developing a leadership style that is authentic to you, allowing you to perform at your peak without sacrificing your own wellbeing or boundaries.

The Journey Together

I follow a clear process to ensure we are focused on the results that matter most to you.

  1. The Chemistry Call: A complimentary initial meeting to discuss your goals and ensure we are a good professional fit.

  2. Strategic Alignment: We define your objectives. For corporate clients, this can include a three-way conversation with HR or a commissioning manager to ensure everyone is pulling in the same direction.

  3. Bespoke Coaching: Typically, we meet for 60 minute sessions once a month. Whether in-person or online, these sessions are entirely tailored to your current challenges and long-term career path.

  4. Review & Growth: We regularly check in against your goals to ensure the coaching is delivering the impact you need to thrive.

What people are saying

  • Marie’s coaching helped me to transition to a new and challenging leadership role. She helped me to create a vision for my future career, and then have the courage to make a significant leap. I wouldn’t have done it without her coaching and I wouldn’t be enjoying my current role so much without her support in the first year

    Head of Department

  • Coaching with Marie has transformed my working life. It has helped me identify a clear mission for my working life and ways to meet my mission, particularly with respect to developing and being able to articulate my leadership role. I have found the coaching sessions both supportive and challenging. Marie has helped me in coaching with respect to individual goals (e.g. increase my grant income which has substantially increased since I started coaching) and making much more effective use of my time; as well as helping me develop my leadership skills by supporting me in challenging situations with staff. Coaching has had a very positive effect on my overall health and that feel of ‘burn out’ that can be common; I sleep much better, am less anxious, and much better able to cope with the stress of work.

    Suzanne

  • Marie is an excellent coach. She quickly gains an in-depth understanding of each individual and brings out the best in them. Her approach is always flexible as she adapts swiftly to the varying situations that her coachee brings to her. However, she always brings the meeting to a close having listened and skillfully guided you to feeling empowered, assured and motivated

    Director

  • Marie immediately put me at ease during our coaching sessions and I genuinely found the sessions to be transformational. From our very first appointment together I felt more in control and confident and noticed a positive change in how I reacted to situations both at work and in my personal life. Marie is very easy to talk to and I felt comfortable sharing all my worries and concerns about work and how I was feeling very overwhelmed and low in confidence. She gave me the tools and skills to make the changes I needed to make and talking to her really clarified what my values and goals are. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend coaching with Marie and will be forever grateful for the difference she has made to my life.
