Improve your executive networking strategy
Discover a new and enjoyable approach to networking that builds better relationships, helping you access the hidden job market.
Engage the people
you know and trust
Days-on-end spent applying for jobs online, or chasing headhunters, isn’t the best use of your time. Interesting and fulfilling opportunities are more likely to come from your existing contacts, the people in your network who know and trust you.
If you haven’t changed jobs for a while, you probably remember this being a much easier process previously. Maybe you were approached directly for a senior role?
Today the job market is different.
Investing limited time trying to build relationships with random contacts and headhunters isn’t the answer.
Using a new approach called ‘soft networking’, your career coach will help you to build a more meaningful and rewarding network, one based on mutual trust and support.
Transform your proposition, so that instead of chasing other people, opportunities come to you.
Learn how to:
Become a recognised expert in your field
Develop the stories that demonstrate your track record
Engage more effectively with the people that matter to you
Soft networking is a more thoughtful and effective approach to deepen and strengthen your existing relationships.
Because networking should be enjoyable and rewarding.
Why should you consider
investing in your career?
If you don’t manage your career, nobody else will.
We live in a fast-moving and uncertain world. We can’t take the old certainties for granted. Even large, well-established companies come and go.
LinkedIn has changed the way that senior executives are hired. Competition for senior positions is more intense than ever before. Building and maintaining your professional network has become more complex & more urgent.
At a time when more and more of us are choosing to carry on working in some capacity, retirement is one of many options.
Now is the time to invest in your career. Give yourself the best possible options to choose the right path for your future work life journey. Together, you and your career coach will work to develop authentic and effective relationships that deliver results, not numbers.

My clients tend to be senior executives, directors and CEOs, typically in their 50s and 60s, who are at some sort of inflection point in their careers.
Over the years I've worked with executives in the UK, continental Europe, Africa and Asia in various industries and functions. Today I work with senior executives all over the world.

I start with a different approach.
For most people, the old way of just sending out CVs to headhunters and applying for jobs just doesn't work.
There's a better way of doing this. One that is more focused and more likely to get results.
My approach is based on developing a career goal that suits you at this stage in your career, building a strong and effective personal brand that neatly summarises who you are and what you represent, and learning how to uncover new opportunities by building and leveraging a stronger personal network.
I believe in you. As your coach my job is to help you develop the skills that you need in order to succeed, to encourage and motivate you, and to give you the confidence that you can achieve your goals. These skills will stand you in good stead for many years to come.
Above all I care. Your success matters to me. I won't give up and I will do everything I can to support you in this journey.
