Leadership Coaching

Focused

Confident

Adaptable

For leaders in complex, volatile or thorny situations, it’s easy to get stuck ‘admiring the problem’. But we don’t always need to painstakingly unpick our challenges to move past them. Especially if the problem is confusing, convoluted and constantly changing! Solution Focused Leadership Coaching makes your preferred future – your solution – bigger, more detailed, and ultimately more accessible than what’s currently keeping you stuck.

Building20 founder, Dr Amanda Woolley offers a 3 month intensive coaching package for organisational leaders working in challenging complex environments.

Within 3 months you can:

  • Get clarity on your focus and direction that will persist through change, uncertainty and volatility.
  • Be confident in your decision making and actions despite the complexity of your situation
  • Improve your adaptability and start seeing real changes in your leadership practice

“The real value of Amanda’s approach is that it is ‘the gift that keeps on giving’. Through this learning I have been able to support others with similar, but differently presented, challenges, as well as continue to successfully navigate myself through turbulent times.”

Jean, Executive Director

The leadership coaching package gives you flexible access to 50 minute coaching sessions within a 3 month period. Sessions are scheduled on your own timescale depending on the level of support you need. So, for example, you might meet with Amanda weekly for a couple of sessions and then follow up after a month and have a final check in at the end of the 3 months. Or, we can meet weekly or fortnightly until you feel you have met your coaching goals.

You can book a session directly through Amanda’s calendar link so you can always see when she is available. You can also email directly if you are struggling to find a suitable slot.

In your first session Amanda will ask you about what you’re hoping to get from your time working together. Then Amanda will help you build a really detailed picture of your success and together you will uncover all the resources, skills and strategies you have available to you to make it happen. In later sessions you’ll reflect on the changes you’ve made and build on your first attempts and early successes.

“Amanda’s coaching technique is to ask lots of questions, and at first this feels incredibly simple and relaxed. But at the end of each session you realise that you have – thanks to her subtle and perceptive approach – been enabled to answer your own questions. And you find you have solved your own problems with your own incredibly hopeful and practical solutions! The fact that you are being helped to discover answers yourself, rather than just taking instructions from someone else, makes the resulting clarity feel very empowering. So if you’re wondering whether to work with Amanda, I say, don’t hesitate! Go for it!”

Clare, Small Business Owner

It’s an approach that is proven to work. Even better, it is proven to work in a small number of sessions so we’re confident that in three months you’ll feel you have your present challenges under control. However, if after 3 months you want to continue with coaching or turn our focus to a different challenge, the option is there to move to an ongoing monthly membership.

The 3 month intensive Leadership Coaching package costs £625.
