CEO turnover is at an all-time high. A perfect storm of burnout and the need for leaders who can navigate ever-changing tech, geopolitical crises, and social issues, means it's hard for chief executives to stay at the top. The cost of poor succession planning can be huge. So why aren’t some businesses putting plans in place?
James Fulton, Chief Learning Officer, Goldman Sachs
In today's complex and rapidly evolving business landscape, executive leaders are under immense pressure to navigate change, foster inclusive cultures, and drive organisational success. Traditional leadership approaches often fall short in addressing the nuanced challenges of modern organisations.
Our Executive Coaching & Strategic Advisory services are designed to meet these demands head-on. By integrating insights from our proprietary PsyQSafe diagnostic tool, we provide leaders with a comprehensive understanding of their organisation's psychological safety dynamics. This foundation enables targeted coaching that addresses specific leadership challenges, such as resistance to change, lack of self-awareness, and executive isolation.
Moreover, our approach includes a thorough Leadership Gap Analysis, identifying disparities between current leadership capabilities and future organisational needs. This analysis informs personalised development plans, ensuring leaders are equipped to meet both present and emerging challenges effectively.
By combining data-driven diagnostics with tailored coaching, we empower leaders to foster inclusive, accountable, and high-performing cultures. This holistic approach not only enhances individual leadership effectiveness but also drives sustainable organisational growth.

We build clarity into what inclusive leadership actually looks like.
Our frameworks define the behaviours, habits, and mindset shifts required at the top, and link them directly to your performance systems.
Whether it’s setting KPIs, shaping 360 feedback, or aligning reward and recognition, we ensure inclusive leadership is visible, measurable, and non-negotiable.
Good intentions aren’t enough.
We provide the infrastructure to make inclusion a leadership responsibility, not a side hustle.
From board reporting templates and scorecards to leadership contracts, escalation routes, and consequence frameworks, we help you embed equity into your governance and grip.
Our coaching offer isn’t soft.
We challenge, stretch, and guide senior leaders through complex, high-stakes inclusion work, with commercial acumen and lived expertise.
Whether it’s navigating backlash, owning public positioning, or aligning DEI with operational strategy, we bring clarity, confidence, and strategic edge to every conversation.
1. Navigating Resistance to Change
Leaders often encounter resistance, both within themselves and their organisations, when implementing change. This resistance can stem from fear of vulnerability or a strong attachment to existing practices. Our coaching approach helps leaders recognise and address these barriers, fostering a culture that embraces adaptability and growth.
2. Enhancing Self-Awareness
A lack of self-awareness can impede a leader's ability to connect with their team and make informed decisions. Through targeted feedback and reflective practices, we assist leaders in gaining a deeper understanding of their behaviors and their impact on others, promoting more effective and empathetic leadership.
3. Managing Time Constraints
Leaders often struggle to prioritise personal development amidst demanding schedules. Our coaching sessions are structured to be efficient and impactful, ensuring that even the busiest executives can engage in meaningful growth without compromising their responsibilities.
4. Addressing Executive Isolation
The higher a person ascends in leadership, the more isolated they can become. This "executive loneliness" can hinder decision-making and personal well-being. Our confidential coaching environment provides a trusted space for leaders to express concerns, explore solutions, and regain a sense of connection and support.
Transforming inclusion from intention to action requires more than just commitment, it demands a structured, enforceable framework that holds leadership accountable at every level.
We provide customisable templates designed to integrate inclusion metrics into your board's regular reporting cycle. These templates ensure that people and culture considerations are not sidelined but are central to strategic discussions and decision-making processes.
Our leadership contracts clearly define the expectations and responsibilities of senior leaders concerning people and culture initiatives. By formalising these commitments, we ensure that leaders are not only aware of their roles in fostering an inclusive culture but are also held accountable for their actions and progress.
We establish clear escalation pathways for addressing people and culture-related concerns. These protocols outline the steps for reporting, investigating, and resolving issues, ensuring that concerns are handled promptly, fairly, and transparently. This structure reinforces a culture where inclusion is actively protected and promoted.
Accountability is reinforced through our consequence frameworks, which delineate the repercussions for failing to meet established people and culture standards. These frameworks are designed to be fair and constructive, aiming to correct behaviors and reinforce the importance of inclusion within the organisational culture.
We develop tailored inclusion scorecards that track key performance indicators related to people and culture efforts. These scorecards provide a clear, quantifiable measure of progress, enabling organisations to assess the effectiveness of their initiatives and make data-driven decisions for continuous improvement.
By implementing these tools, organisations can move beyond aspirational statements to establish a robust infrastructure that embeds inclusion into the very fabric of their operations.
Would you like assistance in customising these tools to fit your organisation's specific needs?
Our executive coaching isn’t generic. It’s grounded in the real psychological patterns inside your culture, captured through PsyQSafe, our proprietary diagnostic tool that reveals the root causes of silence, fear, and dysfunction in your workplace.
We use your PsyQSafe data as a starting point, not an end. That means our coaching is not just reflective, it’s surgical.
We help senior leaders:
This isn’t crisis coaching or surface DEI advice.
It’s leadership precision work, rooted in emotional intelligence, identity fluency, and organisational truth-telling.
We give senior teams the language, posture, and accountability to lead through discomfort, and bring others with them.
Understanding the disparity between current capabilities and future requirements is crucial for leadership effectiveness. Our gap analysis process involves:
By systematically identifying and addressing these gaps, we enable leaders to evolve in alignment with their organisation's vision and the demands of the modern business landscape.
