What is coaching?
Our approach
For us, it’s a question of chemistry. The only way coaching can have a high impact, is if the relationship between coach and coachee is based on trust and mutual respect. Organizations and teams can choose from a portfolio of coaches, and then we set up a chemistry meeting to ensure that the relationship will work for both parties.
“During my work with Ashridge, my coach has encouraged me to develop my own personal brand and leadership style with confidence. He has also been a true sounding board for me, with a 5-year strategy that I have created and presented to Senior Executives and Board Members. His insights and experience have been highly beneficial with the right level of support and challenge to push my boundaries outside of my comfort zone. I highly respect his passion for coaching and strongly advocate his approach”
Our coaches
Our global network of coaches are accredited by Ashridge and affiliated with an international accredited coaching body and are committed to ongoing coaching supervision.
In most case our coaches can deliver sessions in the local language, ensuring the coachee can fully understand the conversation and get the best out of it.
Coaching packages
We offer 3 standard coaching packages, all of which include:
- Access to a selection of coaches around the world
- A free chemistry meeting
- Up to 12 hours of face-to-face or virtual coaching
- Concluding discussion between the coach, coachee and sponsor (e.g. line manager, HR)
