My Approach
When working with businesses, I prioritise investing time with key sponsors to gain an understanding of their training needs and requirements. Building a strong rapport with the individuals involved allows me to tailor training programmes more effectively.
I take a personalised approach to coaching. I will work with you to understand your needs and goals, and develop a customised coaching plan to help you achieve them. I focus on helping you build the skills and confidence you need to succeed in your personal and professional life.
"Leila has been an immense help to me as a coach over the years. We initially started having weekly meetings where we would discuss my team and any issues, and she would work through with me the best way to handle a variety of situations. After the initial kick start period we would catch up every few weeks. Leila had an ability to get me thinking in a different way and by her questioning she was able to get me to consider things I would never have normally thought of. I would say that Leila was both my personal and professional development coach and helped me deal with some, at times, very sensitive issues, where I felt she was the only one I could talk to. She genuinely cares about people and will go above and beyond to help.” Mark Glubb.
