My approach
Helping good people lead great things
Why good; not great?
I'm a father, partner and a son, I want to leave a legacy of change that makes a difference to our children, our planet and to one another.
A couple of years ago I saw this question:
"If you knew you were going to die one year from today what would you do and how would you want to be remembered?"
My reply - I want to give a voice to those who know how to save us from ourselves, which became:
I want to help good people lead great things.
(Doing) Good needs to be the new great.
For far too long great has been defined as “having achieved fame, wealth, or social status”.
I’m not saying you can’t have those if you want them; what I am saying is that if you consider where focusing solely on those has got us; I don’t think it’s got us to the ‘right place’.
What do I coach on?

“As a coach and facilitator, Stefan can prompt real and lasting behavioural change in teams in a way which is engaging, thought provoking and creates energised, customer focused conversations.
His positivity, engagement, and ability to relate to people at all levels, seems to bring out the very best in teams, creating a strong desire to change and improve.”
Paul Waters, Santander
Our results start with our desire to 'be' and are both impacted by and impact upon our home-life and our surroundings.
To forget that costs you and those dearest to you.

OUR COACHING AGREEMENT
-
![The Coaching Programme]()
The Coaching Programme
2 - 3 sessions close together when we start and then moving to monthly afterwards. By agreement, we can look at other variations on this approach.
-
![Session Length]()
Session Length
Usually 1.5 hours, the good stuff tends to happen at minute 59. We can schedule shorter sessions every so often and we can end a session early if you’ve got what you need and ‘bank’ the time for use on another day.
-
![Progress Reviews]()
Progress Reviews
After every three sessions - we will review your happiness with progress, your commitment and your inputs to the coaching process. As well as
anything you’d like me to continue, change or even stop doing for you. After two of these we can make a decision about how frequently we do this going forward. -
![Payment]()
Payment
You do not have to pay for all 12 sessions upfront; but can. Usually I ask for the first three sessions to be paid upfront. If we ‘fix’ the issue in less than 12 sessions, you get to bank the remaining sessions for a later date/topic or transfer them to someone else.
-
![Cancellations]()
Cancellations
I ask for 72 hours cancellation notice to enable me sufficient time to find someone to fill any session you have vacated. Stuff happens; way outside of our control so I will use my discretion to find a new slot and not charge you in these moments.
-
![Homework]()
Homework
Change takes reflection, decision, planning and execution. Ideally you will define your own ‘homework’ between sessions. Sometimes, however, I will recommend activities of you to do. The more committed to doing the work between the sessions you are - the more you’ll achieve. It’s as simple as that.
-
![Notes]()
Notes
They say that the most effective notes are likely to be your own; but thats not always the case. The most brilliant leaders I work with tend to concentrate so hard on the thinking and talking, that for an extra fee; I am happy to provide a two page hand written summary of the session.

What would it mean to work with Stefan?
For me, life has always been about finding joy and following my heart and what my instincts tell me.
The good people I work with, who want to lead great things, often have a real commitment to those around them. This can sometimes be to their own detriment.
Making conscious choices about your future, strategising your next step within a wider career strategy is key to making the long term difference you wish to make and to a happy you and home-life too.
Let me help you to experience life and not just live through it…
