"For clients, supervision is recognized as an effective means of quality control. In fact, this recognition has become so widespread that "coaching supervision is regarded as essential practice in Europe" (Lawrence and Whyte, 2014), and it is fast becoming a recommended component of coaching standards around the world." Kerryn Griffiths Global ReciproCoach Coordinator

Clare Cockburn, The Style Theatre

(Future mapping)

"For myself the experience of having a coaching session in the outdoors was very positive. Being outside allows you the space to breath and talk freely on any subject. Personally being active also helps clear my mind and allows me to get to the root of issues or come up with better solutions. It felt very natural having a discussion outside and that made it much easier to take onboard any advice or pointers from you." Tom, Edinburgh

(Walking coaching)

"An interesting approach to working through issues - managable process in a fixed amount of time. Does not take a huge amount of materials or technical input"
Edinburgh client

(Coaching Circles)

"Kate thank you, you are inspiring to work with...you supported me with backbone and heart. I felt safe yet challenged, supported yet pushed, listened to and heard...truly heard, you were able to pick up on my little nuances....the things I glossed over but needed coached on, the real stuff that was holding me back from achieving my goals and generally creating confusion and unease for me....when our coaching came to an end I was sad but excited....you helped me more than you know....what is effortless for you is priceless for me, thanks again". Lisa, Glasgow

(Inspirational)

(One off Coaching)

"I really enjoyed my sessions with Kate and got a lot from them. She was very calming, friendly, made you feel at ease and really listened to what you had to say whilst also managing to ask the right questions to enable you to open up and get to the heart of the matter then helped guide you to practical solutions and strategies, unlocking the answers you held within yourself. I would thoroughly recommend Kate." Mags, Borders

(One off Coaching)

Team Coaching

As budgets for organisations are shrinking, there is becoming a move towards making coaching ‘team-centric’ to help teams become more agile, effective and engaged. Team coaching helps to facilitate a process that enables a team of people to experience collective learning together through honest discussions, reflections and shared personal and group insights.

Pre-training for the group helps to upskill teams on listening and questioning skills as well as to collectively define their common learning. This can be anything from half a day to 2 days, depending on the group's up-skilling needs. Unlike Coaching Circles or Action Learning Sets, the function of Team Coaching is to focus on the group’s performance and insightful learning in order to develop their skill and behaviours for the betterment of the organisation. Learning vs achieving goals gets to the heart of the team and helps develop lasting behaviours, beliefs and attitudes.

For best impact, sessions typically last between 90 minutes and 2 hours. Team Coaching is facilitated by two coaches, providing maximum group support for the group. The sessions may include 4 D Modelling, team diagnostics as well as group coaching. Sessions work well both virtually and as a group.
