Naama Zusman

You will see possibilities where you might not have seen them before and new ways of being that you didn't know were available to you.

Obi James

London, UK

I coach mid- and senior-level professionals in the corporate sector (predominantly financial services), helping them to position their personal brand, successfully navigate their networks and expand career possibilities.

My coaching approach draws from:

a) Latest findings in the field of neuroscience to create an understanding of how coaching impacts neuroplasticity and helps build the psychological skills needed to support lasting change.

b) Systemic Thinking to help senior professionals, executives and business leaders to look beyond individual development to find solutions which also benefit the wider systems they're part of.

c) My strong corporate experience in senior leadership and organisational development roles within large multinational organisations. This means my coaching approach is tailored to factor in pressures and constraints that come with leadership responsibility in these organisations.

Su Prentice

I specialise in Personal Development, Life Coaching, Career Coaching, Management Development, Psychometrics and Executive Coaching.

My coaching style is personal and warm, professional and purposeful, flexible and focused, fun and real.

Roz Jackson

East Sussex, UK

I specialise in coaching professionals in their 20s and 30s who are unhappy or unfulfilled in their current career and want to do more meaningful, rewarding and impactful work that fits them better.

You may be working in a job that looks great on paper, yet you feel deeply disappointed with how your career has turned out. You're optimistic that there must be a brighter alternative.

If you're feeling completely stuck for ideas, unsure what new career would be right for you, or you don't know where to start in the process of changing career, I'm here to help. Through my 12-session Career Change Programme, you'll discover a new career to pursue with confidence and excitement, an action plan to get you there, and a deep understanding of yourself to inform future career decisions.

Stien Gijsbrechts

Ekeren (Antwerp) in Belgium

I love working with people who are looking to better their lives by finding a career built on their strengths and their needs.
I have a lot of experience with parents who find that they need a different balance in their lives whilst their children are small.
In addition I have worked with people who are face a 'bore-out' or 'burn-out' and are looking for a new reality.

I would describe my style as supportive and result-oriented. I tend to see through the stresses of my clients to their true strengths. I do expect my clients to take responsibility and ownership of the coaching process. What I mean with that is that I am not going to 'whip' or 'chase' my clients into shape. That is up to them to do.

Michelle Bayley

Based in Twickenham, West London. Work with London based, UK-wide and overseas clients.

I specialise in career transition coaching and train other coaches to use the Firework career change process. Over the past 13 years I've worked with people from a wide range of backgrounds, including:

  • 30 and 40 somethings who feel their current work isn't what they want to do until they retire;
  • women with young families who want work that fits better with the rest of their life;
  • 20 somethings who have fallen into work that they know isn't the right match for them; and
  • people of all ages who want to feel they're doing something more purposeful than their current job.

I also work with people who want to get a promotion, who have recently moved from management to leadership or who want to improve any aspect of their current work. And I do general life coaching, helping people to find a way forward with anything, from a relationship issue to improving their confidence and generally living a happier life.

Helen Collins

Berkshire, UK

I am a passionate professional Career Coach and Consultant with a particular interest in career change coaching. I love coaching people who feel they have reached a cross-roads in their career, or perhaps have experienced redundancy, and are seriously seeking a change of direction, but are unclear as to what that may look like.

I provide access to the structured FireworkTM coaching programme, creating the space to enable the coachee to connect consciously with their authentic self; to encourage them to collate, consider and explore career options available to them; to create a vision or visions, and to set out a plan of action to bring one chosen option, aligned to their authentic self, to life.

Michele Willmott

France

Career Coaching for individuals who are feeling stuck, lost or disillusioned and who are considering a complete career change or just want to feel that they are on the right path, which may involve a change in their current working environment rather than a total overhaul.

I also specialise in Relationship Coaching helping individuals who are struggling in their relationship to improve their communication and sense of boundaries and show up in a more confident and empowered way with their partner.

Sally May

East Sussex

I help mid-senior level people in the corporate world get clearer on who they are and what they really want in life, and then coach them as they make it a reality. I also work with forward-thinking organisations who wish to retain their talented employees and harness their renewed energy and ideas to boost the organisation’s social/environmental impact.

I'm firm and supportive. I gained a strong understanding of the corporate world working for Accenture for 18 years in Paris and London. A recent coaching client told me that I have a “serene calm energy”, and am “passionate but not in-your-face gushy!”. There were moments where they felt “uncomfortable but supported”, and the result was that they experienced a number of shifts, concluding “It was way more powerful than I thought it would be. I’ve always said ‘it will all be OK’. Now I believe it”.
