Individual Leadership Coaching

A dedicated space to think clearly, lead confidently and move forward on what matters most.

One-to-one coaching is one of the most powerful and time-efficient forms of professional learning available to educators and leaders. It is personalised, confidential, flexibly scheduled and immediately focused on what matters most to you, whether that is navigating a complex leadership challenge, preparing for a critical moment or simply creating the space to think more clearly about where you are headed.

Working with a GCI accredited coach, you choose the focus. Your coach provides an impartial, non-judgemental perspective, asks the questions that help you reach greater clarity, and supports you to identify and act on your next steps. Follow-up sessions provide the accountability to ensure that clarity becomes action.

Coaching is available in flexible blocks of hours to suit your needs and goals. A focused block of two hours across two or three sessions can provide targeted support for a specific challenge or decision. Longer blocks of up to six hours enable the deeper, more sustained development that a full coaching cycle makes possible.

Coaching for Critical Moments

Sometimes two or three focused sessions are all you need to move forward on a specific decision, conversation or event: preparing for a difficult meeting, a key interview, an important performance conversation or a strategic change you need to communicate.

Coaching for Transitions

Three or four sessions can support you through a significant professional transition: moving into a new role, navigating a shift in priorities or gaining clarity on where you want to take your career.

Coaching for Leadership Development

A longer engagement of four or more sessions provides the space to identify and target areas of leadership growth, and can incorporate the use of a psychometric or feedback tool to deepen self-awareness and inform development.

Balcony Conversations

Four or more sessions spread across the school year, one per term for example, provide a sustained space for reflection, support and challenge. Your coach helps you take the balcony view: stepping back from the day-to-day to identify what matters, what needs to change and where to focus your energy.

Getting on Top of Things

A few targeted sessions can help you build a more effective personal system, address procrastination or relieve the pressure of a simmering issue or something that has been taking up too much mental space.
