I partner with...
Leaders & Life Seekers
I work with individuals who are looking for support in developing their leadership presence and relationship capability, particularly during times of change. You may be looking for coaching support to make a smooth transition to a new company or simply seeking support that is not available within your current company.

Founders & Business Owners
If your leadership & co-founder relationship defines the success of your small business I can support you during the different phases of growth & change in a number of different ways. If you're a sole owner then 1~2~1 would be suitable. If you're joint business partners, then consider investing in the partnership coaching offer to strengthen your relationship ready for the changes and challenges of the future.
Coaches, Organisational Development
& People Professionals
If you're looking for a partner to support your awareness of self and quality of your work relationships, the developmental impact of ICF Mentor Coaching is ideal for coaches seeking a credential. For those seeking a collegiate relationship that both challenges and calms restorative, I offer supervision to coaches & practitioners in the People industry.
​
Corporate Contracts
A coaching approach with individuals that supports and builds their relationship presence, capacity and competence is a core addition to a leadership learning & development offer. Alternatively, you may be going through significant structural change and your leaders need additional coaching support to help them lead with presence and authenticity during this heightened period of change.
Recruitment Consultants
Is it important to you that the recruitment match is successful and long lasting? Giving your talent a coach to support the first 6 months in a new business helps the senior leadership capability that shone through in interview become a reality and flourish in the new environment rather than just be absorbed by it, or at worst overwhelmed by it.
​
Investors
Further secure your investment by adding Be Better Together coaching to your support package. Ensure your founders have the people and relationship skills to match their vision, knowledge and tech skills. Minimise the relationship fall-out that can derail a successful venture.

Greater self awareness that has driven improved performance at both personal and team levels. This self awareness has also reduced personal stress and avoided conflict within teams as I have grown in confidence in how I deal with team performance matters. Ultimately this all leads to an increase in the performance of the organisation.

A massive 'thank you' for your calmness and energy that you have shared with me to help me become my 'brilliant self'.
Anna, Senior Leader

Felicity's style was very open and relaxed. I'd met her once before our first meeting, but only briefly. Our first meeting allowed me to trust her very quickly and easily because she was very open and easy to talk through things with from day one. This set the tone for me going forward and I would describe this initially as her method. A really important way of allowing us to get the most from the time we had. Setting up agreed ways of working on day one and key objectives and often returning to these helped to keep me on track and to clearly see the progression I was making with her coaching support.
