Licensed Firework coaches

Caroline Cameron

Melbourne, Australia. Also coach via Skype clients from around Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia

I coach mid-career professionals who are ready to take the next step in their career but aren't sure what they want to do next or how to make a career change.

My coaching style is insightful, challenging and supportive. Together we identify your strengths and passions and create a career you'll love. We remove the barriers and build a simple roadmap that takes you from what you're doing now to what you'd truly love to do.

What can you expect when you work with me? This is best described by one of my clients who said, “You’re the sherpa I needed to climb my ‘Everest’. I had to do the work but you walked beside me, showed me shortcuts, made it easier and kept me on track till I reached the top.”

Graham Cavan

Cambridgeshire

Hello! I am a professional accredited Executive, Career and Behavioural Change Coach and Business Mentor with over 30 years leadership experience in coaching and mentoring global transformation leaders and teams within FTSE 100 companies to achieve successful outcomes.

My coaching approach is focussed on collaborating with you as a thinking partner in a creative space, that enables you to explore, dream big and achieve your career transition ambitions.

When working together, we spend time capturing the initial goals for our coaching collaboration, before starting to explore the reality of your current unique situation including potential challenges that may need to be overcome. From there, we work together to develop a customised coaching plan that is tailored to your specific requirements.

We would then dig deep, with a bold and curious mindset, to uncover potential options and strategies to achieve these goals before mapping out a roadmap of next steps to deliver a successful outcome.

Lisa Westbury

I have an office in Brighton, East Sussex and can meet up in central London

I work with professional women who want to make more of a difference in their careers or better use their creativity at work.

This could be at any stage in your career – it might be the first time you've intentionally considered matching your career with your motivations, purpose and talents – or when you are at a key transition point such as maternity or starting a business. You might want to step into a new challenge such as leadership, or use skills that you have not previously used at work.

I also help business partnerships and teams to work more productively together, understanding how to play to each other's strengths and make better use of your diversity.

I have a warm and approachable style, creating a safe space for clients to stretch into their talents and explore their range. I enjoy working creatively and with intuition, building a strong alliance with clients, encouraging them to recognise their strengths and build the confidence to work through challenges.

Gillian McDonagh

Kent, London and the South East

We spend a high proportion of our waking hours at work and I believe that this should be both enjoyable and rewarding. With a focus on excellent performance I work with my clients to identify and apply the best version of themselves, regularly and consistently.

My clients range from graduates looking to be sure of which direction to take, promising talent dissatisfied or frustrated in their current role, returning mothers seeking to build confidence and find work that supports their life as a whole to people who have been in the same employment for over 20 years and are now considering a complete change in direction.

I use the Firework Programme as an opportunity to stop and take stock of who you are, what’s important to you and how you can best reflect this in your work. This may well results in a complete change of direction but it can also lead to simply redesigning a current role – or even looking closely at how you turn up at work and how to get the most from it.

Su Prentice

Aberdeen, Grampian, Scotland

I specialise in Personal Development, Life Coaching, Career Coaching, Management Development, Psychometrics and Executive Coaching.

My coaching style is personal and warm, professional and purposeful, flexible and focused, fun and real.

Ross Nichols

Salisbury, UK

I specialise in coaching professionals in transition to find a successful new career, business or life; integrated wellness coaching and business coaching and mentoring for start-ups, the self-employed and micro, small and medium sized businesses.

I work with values, energy, vitality and spirit. For those who want more structure, I offer structured programmes. Integrated wellness coaching combines dimensions of wellness into a quality way of living through a personal wellness plan. Key words for me are 'transformation' and 'healing'.

Jane Owen

London (West & Central), Surrey & East Berkshire

With 10 years plus experience as a transition coach, I work with a wide range of individuals including graduates looking for their first role, postgraduates looking to alter their career path, women returning to work and executives looking for their next career, in short, anyone who is looking for more career satisfaction. I particularly like working with individuals to increase their confidence.

My style is empathetic and genuine and I provide a safe space for you to think differently. I work with the whole of you, your thoughts feelings and behaviours and provide support and challenge through tried and tested coaching interventions to clarify your options and take positive steps forward to achieving your goals; in other words, I hold your hand while you find your way because you cannot teach someone, you can only help them to learn for themselves.

Anne-Claude Benhamiche

  • high potential coachees

  • people with international careers
  • people in their midlife questionings, regardless of their age

If you're looking for an interactive, inspiring and energising coaching process, with both depth and humour, you're in the right place!

Kellie Wardman

United States

I focus on helping people achieve their largest and most expansive lives. Individuals, managers, and C-suite leaders in a variety of situations and positions—who work for non-profit and for-profit organizations. I am honored to work with an inspiring mix of coaching clients from different backgrounds, cultures, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, dimensions of diversity, and lived experience.

My coaching style is supportive, reflective, and open-hearted. But I love to challenge clients to bravely explore new perspectives and game-changing beliefs about themselves and what they are capable of. I invite clients to bring in all kinds of wisdom to the coaching--not just what their head tells them, but what their body and intuition tell them as well! I also believe all voices matter, and I am deeply committed to justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Monika Larini

Estonia (face to face coaching) and worldwide clients online

Many encourage people to step out of their comfort zone. I rather believe that people should make unknown situations more pleasant and interesting by expanding the boundaries of their present world.

It is indeed a matter of point of view: a career coach helps you find different perspectives on your work life that allow you to transform your initial conundrum into new inspiring beginnings, choose concrete actions amidst an overwhelming range of possibilities, and let your initial fear of the unknown turn into curiosity about what you will soon discover.

My coaching style has developed through the interaction between professional academic education and working in predominantly creative environments.

As a coach, I can be more supportive of those who see work as self-fulfilment and a strong part of their personal identity than just a way of earning a living.
