The shift in the landscape for leaders has been dramatic. As the expectations of leaders has increased, so too has the challenge to attract talent and build a genuinely inclusive environment.

What our clients say

The six sessions I had with my ECC Coach changed my perspective of coaching. I was initially uncertain (and possibly sceptical) about the benefits of coaching but my coach read me very well and knew when to coax a response out from me by being encouraging and when to firmly push me to see the benefits of reframing some of my previously held positions.
Head of Legal
International Property Group
I found my ECC coaching sessions incredibly valuable – for the unique and necessary space I was seeking as a sole proprietor to feel heard, understood and connected to a peer in business. My coaching experience provided a safe space where I could be the real me, and provided a relationship I could truly trust. Thank you ECC.
Manager
Creative Retail Agency
The team is a pleasure to work with, consistently bringing expert advice and guidance, energy and professionalism to the partnership.
Diversity and Inclusion Executive
Multinational Investment Bank
Both from my personal experience of ECC’s approach, and from seeing the impact on our company I can particularly recommend their pragmatic approach and their insight into our collective and individual needs.
Senior Leader
Commercial Property Management and Investment Company
The coaches at ECC are commercial, pragmatic and highly focused. The coaching they provide on an individual basis has given valuable insight and helped our senior executives to gain greater perspective in terms of managing relationships, prioritising, strategic thinking, influencing and confidence.
