Project Showcase

We work with senior executives in many sectors including finance and banking services, academia, aviation, FMCG, IT, project management, construction, design and architecture.

Recent Coaching Engagements 

FMCG - CEO Presentation

We were engaged to work with the CEO and Director of HR who were due to deliver joint presentation at an industry forum.  We helped them craft the presentation and then worked on the delivery of the presentation so it reinforced the key elements they wanted to share with those attending the conference.  It was a great success and we have subsequently worked with the CEO on additional conference presentations.

Aviation – Safety

We were engaged to work with a senior safety auditor on general management and communication skills. The GENOS Emotional Intelligence 360 degree feedback tool was used as a guide for the coaching discussions.   The outcome of the executive coaching program was increased awareness of impact with others and adjustment of communication style to work with others.  There was also increased confidence in managing others in a project context.

Academia - Deans and Senior Executives

We have been engaged to work with the senior level of executives and deans within an academic institution.  Coaching requirements range from: managing difficult team situations, managing time and workload, performance management, communicating with others, operational strategy plans, influencing others, negotiating salary packages, pitching ideas and authentic leadership issues.

Financial Services - CFO Analyst Briefings 

We are regularly engaged by the CFO of a major financial services organization.  We assist him with the key message development and dress rehearsal stage of his presentation to analysts, employee roadshows and major conferences. The coaching outcomes include: targeted motivational leadership presentations, development of presentation skills (which are also carried over to other major meetings such as board presentations), increased motivation, increased energy and increased confidence to present in different environments.
