HOW I DO IT

I'll Guide You Every Step of the Way.

STEP 1

Discover & Goal Setting

This phase involves the establishing a foundation of our work together. Goal clarification, partnership parameters and expectations.

Awareness and Insight

Working as a thought partner, I use a variety of tools and techniques to help you gain new perspectives, identifying behavioural patterns and uncovering blind spots.

STEP 3

Action Planning

Together we develop a plan to achieve your goals by considering options and prioritising actions. You take ownership, and I provide structure and guidance.

MY RESEARCH

AI Coach Bot Research

To complete my Masters Degree in Business Administration (MBA), I conducted research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) coach bots.

This research was the foundation of a joint peer reviewed academic research paper on “Artificial intelligence coach bots: coaches’ perceptions of potential future impacts on professional coaching, a qualitative study” in the academic Journal of Work-Applied Management. This reflects my interest in AI and how it may impact the future of human work and interactions. My interest in this field is continuous.

I do in person and online public speaking and presentations on all the topics within my scope of expertise.
