Rebecca’s coaching approach involves:

  1. Meeting you for a free chemistry session to establish rapport and best fit.
  2. A strengths psychometric assessment and a 360 review from a select group of key peers, direct reports and stakeholders to seek feedback on how you are currently applying your strengths at work (conducted via 1:1 interviews).
  3. An initial three-way review with you and your internal coaching sponsor (e.g. your manager) to set your coaching goals and define measures of success. Then at the end of the program to revisit and assess goal attainment and discuss your key learnings overall.
  4. 10-12 hours of one-on-one coaching over six months, plus in-between sessions Rebecca will help you identify ‘missions’ to maintain your focus and momentum between catch-ups.

Women Who Thrive Group Coaching Program

Rebecca has designed a bespoke group coaching program for senior women called ‘Women Who Thrive’. It is based on her own experiences of being a female leader and the common areas she coaches senior women around.

I cannot thank Rebecca enough for the coaching support and guidance given to me. I came to Rebecca in a time where my confidence was significantly compressed and my enjoyment at work was at an all-time low, I wasn’t sure if coaching would be able to pull me out of the rut I was in. However Rebecca’s style and method was extremely effective, helping me to refocus my energies be confident and content in myself, and guided me to discover things about myself that has enabled me to find joy again in the work that I do.

– Executive Manager (Non-for-profit sector)

I really enjoyed working with Rebecca! The coaching process provided me with the opportunity to explore my thought processes and behavioural patterns, then change my internal dialogue, creating space for me to become a more confident and effective senior leader. The insights and challenges Rebecca provided supported a journey in which the original goals and challenges I had set for myself evolved, making the process a much more introspective personal evolution. She has led me to create a much more cohesive vision of myself and helped me see the value I bring to the workplace both now and in the future.

– Senior leader (Non-for-profit sector)

I was starting a new senior role with a company and was keen to start with my best foot forward, Bec was recommended to me through a friend. Over the last year her coaching and support has made a significant difference in my approach at work; the practical counsel has enabled me to turn around some challenging situations and relationships at work. The approach Bec takes is grounded in her deep understanding of human behaviour and I leave our sessions with not just a clear set of practical actions to help me in achieving my next goal, but also a deeper insight into myself that goes beyond the surface issues. I feel Bec has equipped me with some valuable tools & habits to deal with future situations. I can't thank her enough for the difference she has made, as I navigate the next phase of my career. I am grateful to have Bec as a coach in my corner that I can reach out to here when I need extra support for the next challenge that comes my way.

– Senior leader (Private sector)

Rebecca coached me to understand how to access greater potential in my professional and personal life through an improved growth mindset. Her gentle yet insightful enquiry during our coaching sessions assisted me to understand limiting patterns in my thinking and behaviour. Working on them with Rebecca, has increased my effectiveness and influence in the workplace and helped me to become a better senior leader. Rebecca’s ability to build rapport, provide a safe coaching environment and useful resources ensured that each session was helpful and effective. As an academic in a senior leadership position, I have grown so much from Rebecca’s influence and advice.

– Senior leader (Higher education sector)

Rebecca’s coaching style supported me to identify my goals and held me accountable to follow through on the related actions. In our sessions, we delved into my deeper limiting beliefs to unlock my potential and improve my self-confidence overall. Throughout the program I have grown professionally and personally, and I highly recommend Rebecca!

– Executive (Government)

Rebecca is a master of the simple question well asked at the right time. Her coaching has prompted me to think more deeply about my leadership style and pay attention to what really matters.

– Senior leader (Non-for-profit sector)

I really enjoyed working with Rebecca as a coach as she helped me increase my self-awareness and self-efficacy. It felt like a partnership where we were working together towards a common goal. I especially valued the strengths-based approach she utilised in all aspects of the coaching. She shared many insights and pragmatic actions which helped me improve various challenging situations I faced.

Does Rebecca undertake senior leadership coaching programs for a cohort?

Yes Rebecca can undertake a coaching program for a cohort of senior leaders at once. This typically involves running 360 interviews for ½ a day per leader to understand how their manager / senior stakeholders / peers / direct reports and other people are experiencing them. It also includes the leader undertaking a Strengths and/or personality psychometric assessment, a debrief session to support the creation of a development program and subsequent coaching sessions.

As a coachee, what mindset do I need to
bring to enhance my coaching experience?

To understand yourself better to evolve as a leader, it is important to remain curious about the feedback you receive around your leadership style. Knowing how other people experience you is key. Learning how to better dial your strengths up and down, as required, prevents you from operating in overdrive which can negatively impact your effectiveness and wellbeing.
