It's lonely at the top isn't it?

You're running a business - with all the ups and downs that brings. Me too, so I understand a lot of your challenges.

You can't really speak to your colleagues and your team about what troubles you - it might make you look weak to them or they might be a large part of your troubles.

It's what I used to call - in my Employment Law days - 'the joy of employing people!'

So you're very good at what you do - the service you deliver or the items that you make. It's just that the 'people-stuff' is the bit you like least.

The business isn't big enough to need your own HR team so you maybe get that kind of advice from your Accountant - who I'm guessing maybe isn't the best with 'all that touchy-feely stuff'.

Sound familiar?

Or maybe you're already a leadership superstar and want to build a team of future leaders and managers around you...

'Soft' Skills

 

They may commonly be called 'soft' skills but there's nothing soft about negotiating is there? Or making your next sales pitch.

Or going to those dreaded networking events - or sorting out conflict in the office. Or anything else that keeps you awake at night.

Some business-owners are very good with this - and some want to boost their confidence and ability.  

 

It's what I call Mindset and Skillset.

Some of us are more comfortable with these skills, and with people, than others. If it's not something that comes so naturally to you, it can have a big impact:

  • Managing difficult situations and that 'difficult person' who spoils everything - but is great at the job

  • Getting along with people you manage - they might even be your friends

  • Sales and networking - for you, is it a complete 'yeuk'?

HOW I CAN HELP YOU

With a background in Employment Law and as a Trainer and Executive Coach, I'm sure I can help you and your team with the people-performance issues - and help you to Lead Your Team.

1-2-1 Executive Coaching for You

A confidential sounding board.

A risk-free place to express new ideas and work through inner fears. Discuss climbing the career ladder or moving to a new role - or new career.

Develop your 'Presence' - confidence, influence and gravitas - your Leadership and Business Development.

Working through those uncomfortable 'people challenges' - whether management, leadership or peers. Or clients - internal or external.

A facilitator for challenging meetings or, for example, an 'away-day' for business and team development
