Enterprisecoach helps you and your people to align, collaborate and innovate for long term sustainable value.
We work directly with the local and global leadership teams that drive your business. Value is unlocked when they engage together in real time, whether in person or online, supported and challenged by us as coaches. And it usually takes several meetings over a period of at least 90 days to embed sustainable change. We’re flexible on just about everything else – time, place, location and duration.
We tackle the tough stuff – where there is no easy solution
Leaders come to our network when they face extraordinary challenges. We like it when you bring problems that appear insoluble. Complexity, conflict, competition and passion are our daily bread.
The work we do is beyond both training and consulting. It’s about helping your people untangle relationships, communications and differences in your business ecosystem to thrive and create more value.
We’re a boutique service, spanning the globe, helping your leadership teams unlock the value in the people dimension of your business.

For a Yes to be meaningful, you also need to say No
Saying "No" can be hard. Yet without a good solid daily dose of "No", it becomes pretty meaningless to say "Yes." Too many yes's leave a person overloaded with so many promises that eventually they can't all be kept. Most people know this intellectually, but not all of us are as clear as we might be about [...]
2012: Where is business coaching going?
Market conditions demand us all to examine how to deliver greater value for less cost. And now we find ourselves in a recession. The wonderful thing about recessions is that they offer us the stark choice: do what is most valuable, or perish. Coaching is no different – it must adapt to the times, or be [...]
Balancing freedom and control
Leadership is not all about control. Nor is it all about democracy. Leaders are called upon in equal measure to hold the space for others in the group, and to give direction to the group. In other words, leaders both facilitate the emergence of leadership in their teams, and give guidance and direction to their teams. [...]
Leadership and control
This is about what changes as we go up the leadership ladder in organizations. I have found that the higher I go up the corporate ladder, the less detail I can control. It sometimes feels as if my control "budget" has shrunk, but the truth is that the number of things I can control has shrunk [...]
