About Me
I am a qualified executive coach (ILM Level 7), with over 25 years’ experience of developing both people and organisations. My approach to coaching is one that recognises the uniqueness of an individual, and understands that we all learn, develop and address opportunities and issues in different ways. I coach at all levels and work with individuals and businesses to unlock their potential and help them to achieve their goals.
My vision is simple – I want to make a difference.
About You
There are many different reasons why individuals and businesses choose to benefit from a coaching partnership. Whether it’s motivated by a professional ambition, such as preparing for a larger role, career transition and business growth – or a personal development goal, perhaps to increase confidence, enhance communication skills or to manage conflict.
Either way, more and more people are engaging with coaches, with the aim of taking positive action and moving forward in a certain direction.

Leadership coaching with Andrew has helped me to see issues in perspective and improve my effectiveness. Andrew’s questioning style made me feel at ease and open to sharing which is vital to ensure self-awareness and understanding. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andrew as a leadership coach.”
