Organisational & Leadership Coaching

A Warm Welcome

I have over 15 years experience working with individuals and organisations in a professional and personal development context. I offer sessions in London, Oxford and online.

My Approach

I offer In-House Coaching for whole offices, departments and companies, alongside executive 1-1 coaching. My approach to the Coaching process goes beyond the skills and performance level that many coaches offer. 

I work with mid to senior level managers and leaders, start-ups and social entrepreneurs; both men and women. 

I offer career coaching, leadership coaching, crisis management, on-boarding, transformational, therapeutic and life coaching.

This type of coaching is for people who want to look at a discreet set of issues, over a period of 3 months. This is not for people who are looking for long-term ongoing therapy.

I use a 6-session coaching model of Trifocal vision, drawing upon a unique Leadership and Organisational model called the Five Dimensions offer Leadership. I also draw from a wealth of experience working within a Neuro-Linguistic Programming solution focused approach. All this, of course, is customised to your needs as an individual leader or manager, within the context of your role and organisation.

The 5 Dimensions of Leadership are

  1. 1DL awareness of self - the ability to self reflect and choose how to act freely (without being controlled by our emotions and mindsets)

  2. 2DL awareness of our impact on other - the ability to really reach into the other’s world and understand group dynamics

  3. 3DL systems thinking - the art of recognising deeply embedded systemic forces that impact our thinking, decisions and feelings; and choosing to operate out of those forces where helpful and appropriate

  4. 4DL self leadership - the ability to stand in the wind of criticism and change and say ‘this is who I am and this is what I stand for’

  5. 5DL ability to ask for help - developing the inner strength and humility to ask for support appropriately

What Others Say

“The news that I’m going to be made redundant next year left me panicked and totally unsure about how I should, or indeed could, move forward. With Laira’s help, encouragement and insight I have come to realise what I would like to achieve, both professionally and personally. She has a flexible and objective approach; whilst I was aware that our sessions were structured, Laira allowed me to grow and develop my intuition about what was needed, she gave me the space and freedom for exploration. She is an excellent sounding board who brought clarity to challenging situations. Laira is a pleasure to work with. Calm, patient, funny, clear and totally supportive. I found Laira’s coaching work incredibly beneficial”.

“We are therefore talking about a leadership that is engaged in the co-creation of new paradigm that enables a new economy and a new politic to emerge”

Roger Evans, Five Dimensions of Leadership
