Boardroom Coaching
All Boards can benefit from an independent, external perspective enquiring into their ways of working. There are two main scenarios where this can be helpful:
Our experienced boardroom consultants provide coaching for established boards - coaching the whole board together. We are often asked to intervene in this way when the board is facing an emotionally charged situation, when the Board has become stuck in a particular pattern of conversation such as group think, when relationships within the board have broken down or where factions have developed within the Board.
We use a dialogic approach based on observing a series of meetings using our innovative Board Watch process.
The price per session, including observation, is £550.00 plus VAT.
All Boards can benefit from an independent, external perspective enquiring into their ways of working. There are two main scenarios where this can be helpful:
- where the Board is facing a new situation and wants help to think it through from different perspectives
- Where the board wants to improve its overall performance.

Board Member Coaching
We provide coaching for individual board members (executive and non-executive) to support them in their board role, build their confidence as a board member and help them adjust their behaviours and conversational style to make their best possible contribution to their board. We have been asked to support board members in the following situations:
- Taking on the chairmanship of a committee for the first time
- Developing into the role of Board Chair
- Where ongoing conflict exists between two board members as a consequence of different behavioural styles.
Coaching the Chair and CEO
The relationship between the Chair and Chief Executive is pivotal to the success of the Board and influences the Board’s ability to set the tone for, and provide value to the organization. We also provide coaching for the Chair and Chief Executive together to help build an effective relationship that strikes a balance between independence of thinking and support.
We use the Kantor Institute’s Behavioural Propensities Profiling Instrument, as the basis of much of our coaching. It helps raise awareness of self and others by exploring the client’s default behaviours when interacting with another person or a group.
