How we help senior leaders

Leadership Coaching Services

We have worked closely with senior leaders around the world for decades. We've seen great leaders, crappy ones, and loads of just okay ones. What we have seen repeatedly is that the best business leaders do three things well. They do the hard work of personal growth, they understand human beings, and they connect in meaningful ways with others.

This work is messy and difficult, and it feels vulnerable and uncomfortable. This means lots of tough conversations with yourself and with others. This is our sweet spot; helping people open up and grow beyond their carefully constructed safe bubbles.

Coaching is
Our Specialty

We specialize in human nature. People are complex and quirky. We can be absolutely brilliant or totally daft. And each day we want to bring our best selves to the job. That means we need to know what we and others are made of and how to make all these different personalities and needs play well together.

That’s where we can help. We’ve got real stories from the front lines of leading people, we facilitate personal growth with compassion, we offer tough love when necessary, we never recommend anything that doesn’t work in real life and we like to think we’re funny. (Gavin’s got that dry British wit and Nicki completely overestimates how funny she really is.)

Personal Growth Comes With A Commitment To Your Own Self-Development

Growth comes from challenging, often difficult, dialogues. To that end, we create safety and a context to have meaningful conversations with yourself and others.

If you need support with your own personal leadership journey, or with your senior team, we’d love to be at your side. If you’d like your organization to take up the charge of putting people first, we’re all in.

Messy-X Talks

If you are looking for a different kind of kickoff or keynote event, we offer a wide range of Messy-X Talks. Think fireside chat meets brutal honesty meets real stories from the leadership front. And plenty of humor. It’s a thought-provoking conversation between the two of us and with your group. We don’t offer high-minded theories or the latest fads. Instead, we get to the truths about great leadership and what you need to do to become one. No matter where the topic begins, it will always land on the importance (and craziness) of human beingness.
