Hello and welcome and thank you for the opportunity of reaching out to you with this little video about my coaching work for you. I am an executive career management and change coach. I help people. To lead and live a full life fruitfully and successfully, especially during their change encounter that may be impacting their ability in their performance, relationships, and wellbeing. This is about maintaining and strengthening your mental fitness. And I offer what I refer to as a triune of coaching, where I bring into play my triunitive life coaching, which includes a substantial experience with executive career management coaching, and also with PRISM brain mapping, which is a neuroscience-based behavioral preference assessment instrument that has proved to be so helpful for people when thinking about changing their careers or getting stuck in how to approach interviews, et cetera. In addition to this, on the mental fitness front, I am also a positive intelligence coach. And this allows us to attend to our fears, the stresses, anxieties, all the negative emotions that we might be feeling. in our lives at any particular moment through change. So how's this relevant to you? Well, I have written down here some examples from my clients. These are their words. I'm in challenging times with individuals and teams. I have imposter syndrome and don't know what to do. I'm going nowhere fast with career stagnation. More of the same hell. Lost in the fog and rudderless. Feeling fearful and anxious all the time. Decision making is difficult for me. And I'm a leader. Upping my game is like pushing a boulder uphill. And there are many more examples I could give.

Bio
My meaningful purpose in [my whole] life is to help people strengthen their ability to lead and live a full life fruitfully and successfully through their change encounter. I offer 1-to-1- coaching across all sectors, with the Insurance Sector a niche area for Corporate Fractional work.
For example: some people want to be better Leaders, or improve in their current role, seeking promotion, or handling imposter syndrome, or need a survival or coping strategy, or are stuck in a rut, or are encountering a faltering relationship or business where keeping calm is difficult, or want to settle well into a new job [after an unhappy previous one], or their career has been disappointing, or is unfulfilling, or they need to develop positive habits, or (re)build their confidence, or loving the work but in the wrong environment, or need support in the job hunt or nailing that interview, or making a decision that is right for them.
With 20+ years Executive, Career Management & Change Coaching (Life & Spiritual), I offer a triune of specialisms: Tri-unitive Approach Life Coaching; the neuroscience of behavioural preferences that reveals our true underlying strengths, empowering us to excel in what we enjoy and love; Positive Intelligence handling the negative impact of our Saboteurs, activating our Sage Powers, that is the wisdom side within ourselves.
My Lived Experience, in depth skills, competencies and knowledge I summarise as contained in the “The Human Nature of Risk and Human Face of Change”, another story for another time.
These 3 summaries may well resonate, forming an underlying relevance to your coaching needs, requirements and objectives: -

My Unitive trained Coaching, which has evolved into the Tri-unitive Approach, attends to the whole person, where the integrity of the whole is greater than the sum of the individual parts of physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. With the aid of my specialisms, together we address the root cause of the issues that my clients want to resolve. It is these root causes of anxiety, stress, frustration, blame, shame, guilt, disappointment, and many more negative emotions that have the greatest impact in sabotaging our ability to maintain our mental fitness in the three important areas relevant to us all: Performance Relationships Wellbeing

PRISM Brain Mapping®: A revolutionary way of identifying people’s behaviour preferences. PRISM approaches human behaviour from the perspective of neuroscience, rather than psychological theory. This exciting online tool takes advantage of some of the most up-to-date neuroscience discoveries to provide users with a series of ‘maps’ which are representations of how they prefer to respond to the world around them. Each ‘map’ is a picture of the user as a unique individual. At the root of PRISM is the basic fact that all human behaviour is brain driven.
3.Positive Intelligence®: Most attempts at positive change fail because we stop at insight and don’t build habits. Sustained change towards a more positive mind requires laying down neural pathways to form new habits through consistent daily practice. And that’s what my coaching with the PQ Program empowers you to do.

Experience
My Lived Experience for you • 40+ years leading & managing Clients and People in Specialty Insurance, Risk & Change (Insurance Broking, Underwriting & Consultancy and Business Improvement); a Client Director with outstanding record in Client Relationships (Development and Management). Now a CII Connect Mentor. • Business Development & Operations: “Opening Doors”, building relationships of enduring value internally and externally to grow Clients/Sponsors/Lead Donors/Members and revenues profitably. • Previous Trustee/NED of major Charity, SCOPE (Co-opted) including Fundraising & Marketing /Finance & Audit subcommittees. • Major projects; implementing from scratch Best Practice & ISO9001 & Business Improvement. • Change projects: Inclusive Leader encouraging people to adapt successfully under the precepts and principles of “Who is my neighbour?” a fast-re-emerging, compassionate alternative to EDI/D&I. • EDS: having a dyslexically functioning brain that brings with it a gift of ‘lateral insight’; also belonging to the only minority group in the UK that is deliberately and institutionally discriminated by Laws and Acts of Parliament. One of many exemplars demonstrating how to live with this positively. • Lord’s Taverners Life Member and previous Lord's Taverners Chairman of the City of London Region raising substantial funds for the charity, which subsequently has never been achieved by others. Regarded at the time as an avant-garde Chairman, who could see the future value of change, bringing Ladies & Lord’s Taverners to work together (rather than separately) and other innovations. • Catastrophic PLC Governance: failure in Board Governance of LEP Group; a Personal Investor-Stakeholder (non-director) with a significant family minority shareholding. Initiated urgent liaison with NEDs/C-suite major shareholders/Lending Banks setting out a 3-point proposal for a Corporate Rescue to save 12,00 jobs, regardless of the personal financial and irretrievable loss to myself. • Because of the LEP Group, I keep up to speed on Board Governance (regularly updated from Cadbury to ESG, Sustainability and Charities Trusteeship) • MCC President’s Members Liaison Working Group (MLWG) 2000; I listened to just under 1,400 members, providing guidance to MLWG on advising MCC Committee on important cultural, structural and operational changes required for 21st Century.
