The Challenge

How to develop as a leader, after moving up in the organisation - re-establishing in the new role with more responsibility?
-
How to work on organisation specific challenges?
-
How to move projects ahead, in order to influence stakeholders in a more meaningful manner?
-
How to deal with over-analytical tendencies?
Coaching Benefits
Confidence
Discussing my frustrations, challenges, and concerns with Amanda, proved instrumental in unravelling difficulties experienced at both professional and personal levels. This not only aided in summarising the situation but also contributed to boosting my confidence.
Tools
These resources helped me to identify various challenges and suggested applicable frameworks for resolution. The diverse tools helped me tailor solutions for restructuring teams, navigating challenging conversations, emphasising the cultivation of relationships with other teams and skillful management of senior stakeholders. Moreover, it emphasised the importance of open communication and pairing them with suitable methodologies to foster transparency and effective problem-solving
Self-reflection
Amanda helped me to pause and reflect on how I approach things rather than overanalysing.
Safe Space
It provided me with a safe space where I could be myself and talk freely, knowing I wouldn’t be judged.
