Coaching with Tom

You want to make sure that you are being supported by the right coach, someone who perhaps has the background, knowledge and experience that is compatible with your leadership, management and life needs.  You will also want someone who can help you articulate the issues that you experience around leadership, management and life, with whom you can develop a good rapport and feel comfortable.

I have extensive people experience in leadership, management and life skills.  I am flexible and supportive and am especially good at listening without interruption.  I may be the right coach for you.

I have a policing background with plenty of leadership, management and life experience in supporting others.  I speicalised in community and diversity, working closely with people from all walks of life, staff and the public.  Over and above my career, I have assessed numerous organisations in the private and public sector, as a Lead Assessor with the British Quality Foundation, understanding how businesses function from top to bottom.  

I was a visiting lecturer for three London universities supporting HRM Level 7 Masters courses, Executive MBAs and undergraduates.  I founded, chaired and facilitated the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) London Region Engage for Success group working to help develop leadership, management and presonal life issues iwth members.  

I am an accredited coach with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council and, as an accredited neuroscience coach, I help people understand how their body chemistry can influence and enhance their confidence and show them how to exploit that for their personal benefit in building confidence and relationships. This can massively help them overcome personal challenges they might face in leadership and management roles, as well as in their personal life.   In terms of education?  Well, I'm a Chartered Fellow in the CIPD and have an MBA.
