We’re constantly bombarded with various demands and responsibilities, leaving us little time to pause and contemplate. As a result, our ability to make thoughtful decisions can be severely impacted.
This lack of clarity can leave us uncertain about the path we should take, or more simply, which paths are available to us.
I can help. Let’s work together to identify the right way forward, and keep moving.
I’m a qualified leadership coach with more than 15 years on the job coaching experience, developed whilst partnering with leadership teams as a senior HR executive.
Having spent the majority of my career working in founder-led fast growing organisations, I understand the challenges posed to both experienced leaders and aspiring leaders whilst operating in the exciting world of the start up. I coach clients working at all levels, and with a broad range of backgrounds, however my experience has led me to specialise in coaching CEO Founders and their teams.
As someone who has benefitted from coaching at pivotal points in my career, I’m a firm believer in the value coaching offers to everyone, regardless of experience or the challenges faced.
I offer a number of coaching programmes to support individuals at various stages of their careers.
121 Leadership Coaching
Developing leaders on a 1:1 basis to enable them to lead with confidence and authenticity.
Combined Resources Coaching
Coaching and HR support combined; drawing on my time in senior HR positions to give direct HR support alongside traditional coaching to leaders who may not yet have a senior HR role in place.
Executive HR Coaching
Guidance for aspiring HR Leaders. Providing insight and advice to those earlier on in their HR journey.
Group Coaching
Small group sessions encouraging employees to share challenges in a safe environment, learning from each others experiences, whilst building a sense of community.
Parental Coaching
Helping new parents prepare for, and navigate through, the dynamic experience of raising children, juggling personal needs, and thriving at work.
It doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Taking the time to stop and reflect with the right coach can be a game changer, enabling individuals to grow personally, develop professionally, and tackle challenges confidently.
I seek to support leaders on their journey by offering 1-2-1 coaching in a safe, non judgemental environment, providing a platform for clients to consider options, think through the issues they face, identify the opportunities which may not yet be clear, and overcome any barriers.
I have a very authentic and practical approach to coaching, drawing from experience to provide directional advice and challenge if requested.
'It's been great working with Laura. As a former CPO she deeply understands the intricacies of complicated people issues which is often the topic of concern for many Founders / CEOs (myself included.) As a coach she helps you reach your own conclusions but has the added level of empathy as a people leader that gives her an extra dimension of value during coaching sessions.'
Raj, CEO & Founder, Learnerbly
'A credible People function is critical in a fast-changing organisation, so having Laura join as CPO at carwow was a real game changer. Her professional, authentic and down to earth style coupled with the experience that she brought with her from previous roles really enabled us to transform our culture and the way we worked together. I personally really valued Laura’s insight and guidance during the highs as well as the more challenging times. Her in depth People leadership experience and business understanding alongside her approachable manner make her the ideal coach for CEOs and their teams.'
James, CEO & Founder, Carwow
‘My coaching sessions with Laura were extremely valuable. At a time when I was struggling with multiple challenges, she really helped me cut through to get to the bottom of things and figure out a way to rethink what I was dealing with. I really appreciated Laura’s considered and non-judgmental approach - and her prior experience in the startup / people space enabled her to provide a perspective and pick up on underlying issues I hadn’t considered. The biggest testament though was from my co-founders who pointed out a noticeable difference in our interactions as a result of our sessions’
Lara, CEO, EF Fuels
"Laura has been a lifesaver, not only for my productivity and prioritisation but also for our wider teams. Her wealth of great ideas and initiatives combined with cool, to-the-point thinking is the perfect medicine."
Giles, CEO, Homesearch
When we started working together, I felt directionless, stuck, and unsure of where I wanted to go in my career. Laura helped me to deliver on my objective to gain clarity on the next steps 100%. She's an excellent listener, and her natural strengths were in assisting me to hone in on what I want from my career and formulate concrete steps for getting there. She provided a non-judgmental sounding board, challenged me when needed, and held me accountable. I'm delighted to say that not only do I feel unstuck, but my confidence has increased dramatically, and I don't think I could have gotten here without Laura's help.
