A Finance Director of a multinational property organization recognized the need to both raise the performance and profile of his Finance Team and to support and influence the Chairman, Chief Executive and other Board colleagues at a time the business was facing significant challenge.

Coaching helped him test and refine the robustness of his diagnosis of what was needed and then to develop a plan to tackle what was necessary.

Paced coaching during the implementation gave him a sounding board and a critical ear to maintain and measure progress. Coaching helped him manage the implementation of his strategy on both counts;  resulting in a more fit-for-purpose finance function and a significant increase in his personal influence at the most senior levels in the organization and a formal recognition by his appointment to the national board.

“Our work has helped me to extend the range of emotion that I display and become be more self aware. I have been able to use this to influence and support my board colleagues more effectively. I have also managed to express disappointment and still retain relationships with colleagues!”
