If You Experience any of the Following Personal Leadership Coaching Will be Invaluable to Take Your Leadership Skills to the Next Level
You need to lead continuous or near continuous change in your organisation.
You feel the loneliness of your role at the top of your organisation. You'd like to have a sounding board and get honest feedback for your initiatives, strategies and change interventions.
You are new in a leadership post, need to develop your leadership skills further and make an impact in your first 100 days.
You'd like to become better at moving between 'observing the action' in your organisation so you can be aware of your responses, and being 'in the middle of the action' so you can relate and respond to those around you.
You'd like to build deeper and more effective relationships with your senior team and across your organisation.
You want to work 'below the surface' and identify your hidden patterns and blindspots. These are the areas that can inadvertently trip you up as a leader and even harm your reputation.
During online leadership development coaching I may coach you in a variety of leadership models. This might include conscious leadership coaching, authentic leadership coaching, complex adaptive leadership coaching and others.
By developing your own personal ‘leadership practise’ through authentic leadership coaching you will be able to tap into more of your mental, emotional and spiritual potential, work sustainably and avoid burnout.
My leadership coaching will help you connect to your authentic self or essential core including your sense of purpose and deepest values. This will help you ground yourself when you are dealing with volatile change so you will not be buffeted by the turbulence of change situations. This approach can make your work feel less stressful.
Develop a deep understanding of psychological change and how loss and the prospect of loss impacts people in organisations, so that you can keep people engaged and contributing to the future development of the organisation.
Work constructively with the conflict that arises in volatile, complex and uncertain (VUCA) situations so that you can harness that conflict to spark creativity and imaginative solutions.
If you feel it’s time to develop your leadership skills, let’s have a chat about your situation and how leadership coaching with me might support you.
How Does Coaching and Leadership Development Work?
We can have an exploratory session of TRANSFORMATIONAL leadership coaching, where you’ll experience the leadership coaching relationship for yourself, so you’ll know how coaching with me feels for you.
My leadership coaching is personal. I hold a space for you, where you can increase your self-awareness and self-knowledge, and allow your unique and authentic leader to emerge. A flaw of some in-company leadership development programmes is that they champion a prescribed list of ‘leadership behaviours’ that the organisation has identified as ‘desirable’. By contrast my approach emphasises discovering your individual gifts and talents. What is emerging for you in terms of your purpose and mission? What is authentic for you? What is an authentic way for you to relate to the people around you?
I help you hold ‘trifocal vision’; this means that at one and the same time you can be aware of three things: your long term vision for your organisation, the path you are constructing towards that vision, and the very next step that you need to take.
As your leadership coach I will never tell you what to do. Leadership coaching provides a creative space where you can gain insight, identify areas of resistance, and work with that resistance in a creative way. I will help you by:-
Listening to you with empathy and without judgment so you feel supported.
Helping you to tap into more of your experience – mind, feelings and body which helps builds your self-awareness
Asking you powerful questions which will help you gain insight.
Challenging you to self-reflect honestly and openly so you can become aware of old patterns that may not serve you in your leadership role.
Helping you tap in to your creativity and imagination so that you can access those resources when you desire and also model creative thinking for those around you.
What are the Additional Benefits of Leadership Coaching?
Working with me as your personal leadership coach you'll gain :-
Leadership skills and the leadership mindset you need to tackle the complex challenges of the 21st century and position you for even more senior leadership roles.
Leadership skills required for you to steer your organisation through fast-changing markets and a landscape of disruptive technologies so that it survives and thrives.
Improved communication and relationship skills that will enable you to connect more empathically and deeply with others so you can co-create a successful future for your organisation.
Greater self-knowledge and self-awareness which will make you a more confident and resilient leader.
Deeper connection to your authentic self and your purpose that will make your work more meaningful and fulfilling.
Why Choose Trudy Lloyd as Your Leadership Coach?
I’m trained in psychodynamic coaching which means I can help you work at depth and tackle the issues that limit your performance and block you from tapping into your full potential. Specifically psychodynamic coaching can help you to uncover the area that is ‘unknown to self’ and ‘unknown to others’. By doing this you will increase your self-awareness and choices.
As a psychodynamic coach I work with the metaphor of the iceberg. I am particularly interested in working “below the surface” to help you increase your awareness of any blind spots – the areas that might trip you up if you don’t pay attention to them.
I have trained in psychosynthesis coaching. Psychosynthesis is a transpersonal psychotherapy and its models are particularly effective in helping people get in touch with their authentic values, authentic self and purpose which will help you liberate the authentic leader in you. More about Trudy
