Working with organisations
We help organisations lead transformation and change, connecting the purpose of the business with their people and their work. Together, we think through, plan and execute for sustainable development of their people at all levels.
Leaders now need to manage remote and diverse global teams, work virtually and balance productivity with employee wellbeing. A pragmatic, joined-up approach ensures our programmes stay relevant to the organisation’s strategic objectives.
Building Organisational Capability
We partner with our client organisations to scale their people and change capability in line with the organisation’s strategic objectives.
This results in integrated programmes with clear measurable outcomes for talent pipeline development and organisational transformation.
Resilience and Wellbeing
Our Resilience and Wellbeing Coaching services offer employees time and space to rebuild their confidence and capacity to tackle their critical challenges, with renewed optimism and clarity.
Our services are designed to address individual dilemmas as well as being able to provide practical training that embeds a healthy resilient culture across any organisation.
Return on Investment
Early stakeholder involvement identifies the value they expect. This in turn helps to define clear, measurable outcomes so that the return on coaching investment can be quantified.
“What gets measured gets done” and we use measurement to create a framework against which progress can be monitored, return on investment calculated and consistency of delivery ensured.
Our Systemic Approach
Our own experience as business leaders means we bring an organisational perspective to all the work we do, from individual leadership coaching to senior team development and business-wide programmes.
No individual or team works in isolation, and their success is also determined by their interaction and relationship with other individuals and teams both inside and outside the organisation.
Systemic Team Coaching plays a pivotal role in leadership and senior team coaching, enabling leaders to develop a more collaborative style and teams to support the wider context of the organisation.
Rapid change and increasing stakeholder complexity in businesses today calls for a systemic approach so that individuals and teams become better equipped at understanding their stakeholder needs and delivering value to their customers and the organisation.
We engage with senior executives, HR leaders and L&D to develop organisation-wide programmes for individual and team coaching, group coaching and talent acquisition at senior level.
Our approach combines our deep experience with the rigour of a systemic methodology. Olwyn Merritt is a Systemic Team Coaching Master Practitioner, a Post-Graduate certification awarded by the Academy of Executive Coaching.

A massive impact on my leadership style, development and success over the last 10 years.
Olwyn is going a great job supporting many of our leadership team in Dell Technologies across EMEA – I have seen at first hand the very positive impact Olwyn’s coaching has had on their development and growth – with so many examples of strong career development and advancement (three leaders are great examples). I still often reference in career discussions my own direct coaching experience with Olwyn (many years ago) which had a massive impact on my leadership style, development and success over the last 10 years.

I have been using your techniques and have had some great feedback
I have been using your techniques and have had some great feedback – focusing on 1 or 2 max points each call. My particular focus has been: Delivery – clarity and brevity of communications; Trigger points – keep aware of these – advance preparation of what I anticipate during the call. When I have used the techniques I notice a marked difference in my meeting performance.
