Coaching
Whether you’re in the midst of a challenge, about to take on a new project, role or big life change… or you just would like a different perspective on what you are doing, we’re here to help you ‘meet the moment’.
Coaching is ‘balcony time’ for you to take a step back and discover a fresh perspective and re-connect to yourself. From there, new possibilities present themselves and we support you to explore new pathways forward.
Learning
As groups we gather to gain insights, skills or strategies, and the experience will shape what is being learnt and taken away.
In a workshop or a retreat, or series of learning events, we pay attention not just to content, but to the experience the individuals and the group have in order to support and maximise the learning they take away and can put into practice.
Community
If as an experienced or new coach you are interested in development for yourself, sharpening your skills to work with and support others, or having meaningful moments with fellow practitioners, connect with us and join as a Bamboo Being member to dialogue and co-create new possibilities.
Our goal is to create a platform for intimate dialogue where you can 'step-in' to your art, authentically with others.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Community
How can we support you?
Maybe you are looking to continue developing your skills as a coach. Or to have interesting conversations with peers about topics of interest. You may be looking for supervision to support you in the 'emotional labour' of supporting other. Or you may be interested in cultivating skills and competencies beyond the core competencies of coaching.
What can you expect in joining our community?
We aim to create a community in which coaches can gather for support, encouragement, learning - and fun! We believe that real development is often uncomfortable and that to meet ourselves at a deeper level requires the support of a caring community.

"Sue's facilitation of our leadership development program allowed participants to encounter the content at the level they were ready for.
For some it was their first time hearing these concepts, others were able to dive deeper into their personal responses and sense of leadership. All came away feeling it was valuable time well spent."

Senior Leader
One of the greatest insights I received from Sue’s Leadership Coaching is the criticality of energy management in developing presence.
Sue acted like a navigation beacon in a period of transition between roles whilst at my last company. She equipped me with the long life gift of tapping into mindfulness to decode and deconstruct rationally my own self-perceived and imposed barriers for growth.

Individual Coaching
How can we support you?
Typically you come to coaching with issues to resolve: maybe a career or organisational change or planning a personal or professional project. You could be 'stuck' around choices you need to make and want to explore all the possible next steps. Or maybe you are feeling more 'adrift' and looking for more direction.
What can you expect from our approach to coaching?
We first aim to understand what your world looks like - from your perspective. We explore your issue and themes in your current way of thinking, feeling and acting. We're not just trying to resolve the issue in hand but shine more light on how you typically tackle issues.
Together we unpack your routines and their effects and identify new steps and experiments you can make to effect change. In subsequent sessions we unpack and review how things went and what you are learning not just about the situation you are in, but about how you are engaging with it. We tackle new challenges and opportunities as they emerge always looking to see what more they tell us about you and your current approach.
Our intention is for you to leave coaching with greater clarity, courage and capability not only in how you engage the issue you came in with, but in how you engage with life.
Team Coaching
How can we support you?
We first meet with team leaders or sponsor to determine where the team is on its journey. Perhaps the team members are not well known to each other and there is a need to build trust - or possibly there has been a breakdown of trust or communication. Maybe they have run into conflicts or haven’t agreed how they need to work together effectively and need help shaping the team culture. Sometimes the team is not aligned on a common purpose and is less a team than a group. We explore where the team wants or needs to shift and why.
What can you expect from our approach to team coaching?
We will design a programme that addresses the particular needs of the team at this time. Typical sessions might be aimed at:
- integrating team members or stakeholders
- creating alignment in how the members work together
- addressing knowledge or skills gaps
- addressing specific challenges in the way the team is operating in its broader context
- finding or re-articulating common purpose and values
-redefining team mission, strategy and outcomes
The approach to all sessions is customised for that particular team, building step by step on what we discover at each stage and aimed at longer term development of the team as a whole
Sue's 1-1 coaching was truly transformational; through listening, observing and bringing unique insights she helped me understand my blind spots and empowered me to make big shifts in my career and life.
