Get in touchCoaching Style
Emma has a highly empathic and intuitive approach to coaching which provides her with insights into her clients which allows her to challenge them in a fearless and demanding yet encouraging and supportive way.
Each coaching programme is tailored to her individual client’s needs, where they will examine their strengths, development areas, coaching and business objectives using a structured framework which allows them to develop relevant and achievable action plans leading to significant results. Emma combines perceptiveness and empathy with a strong pragmatic and business focus.
“Clients describe me as being open and challenging within a highly supportive and constructive framework. I bring objectivity and structure to a client’s personal and professional development goals, as well as thought-provoking insights.
Coaching Specialisms
- As a natural development of her interest in transition and development coaching, Emma successfully created and launched Maternity Coaching in 2005. Through her personal experience of maternity leave at a major Investment Bank (Emma has three children) Emma recognised the need for bespoke coaching for working parents. On joining The Executive Coaching Consultancy she subsequently designed and developed a coaching programme to support women before, during and after their maternity leave.
She is a passionate advocate for supporting parents at work and continues to lead ECC’s market leading services for Working Parents.
