Dr Catherine Coaching is headed up by Founder and Principal, Catherine Baudino with broad international expertise, in various industries and in many languages.

Are you an Executive who is:

Unsure of how to motivate colleagues?
Looking to develop your leadership skills?
Struggling to communicate your vision for the future?
Wondering how best to deal with investors, shareholders and board members?

Or are you a Founder who is:

Unsure how to upscale?
Uncertain on what skills are required?
Having doubts on how to grow your company?
Wondering how to best approach investors?

Being a leader can often be lonely. Dr Catherine will work with you as you become a confident leader, who inspires their co-workers and drives growth.

During the 1 hour sessions you will:

  • Share your passion
  • Find a style of address which suits your voice
  • Develop the life/work balance

You will work with a coach who is herself a former (lone) executive and may take you out of the comfort zone, whilst ensuring that you are in a safe, private and supportive environment.

Case Study

BACKGROUND

Robert came to me not longer ago.

Aged in his early 50s and after some 15 years in the same company, he was

  • for the first time, seriously unhappy,
  • feeling part of the system as opposed to the valued employee he had been in the past,
  • alone in his position with no one to turn to,
  • worried about his department’s earnings,
  • feeling responsible for his staff,
  • overwhelmed,
  • worried about making the wrong decision.

We started by looking at who he could approach with these issues; HR was out of the question, as it was too much ‘in house’. Whilst he himself was a coach and mentor to many of his colleagues, he had none: he was alone with his thoughts and fears – with no one to turn to.

 

CLARITY AND GOAL SETTING

In the course of our exploratory session, we ascertained that what Robert needed was:

  • a safe place to discuss his concerns,
  • the opportunity to reflect on his life and beliefs,
  • an open and non-judgemental environment where he could be honest, without being assessed.

In fact, Robert quickly saw that what he needed most was someone he could talk to, someone who would offer him a positive challenge – in complete confidence.

As a former corporate executive, myself, I fully related to his issues – nor was I intimidated to confront his assumptions and unconscious biases.

We thus opened into a frank and open dialogue where:

  • we checked the veracity of his perceptions, as well as
  • the obstacles he faced to turn them around,
  • we examined what he had done in the past and could be replicated,
  • we also identified where the circumstances were different and warranted a different course of action.

The purpose (and the result) of our exchanges was to re-established Robert’s authority and confidence in the work-place.

Does Robert’s story relate to you? If so, feel free to contact me for an exploratory session.
