Licensed Firework coaches

As a Leadership and Career coach and facilitator, I have built up an experience in working with:
- Executives and professionals to strengthen their personal brand and assist them in challenges they encounter.
- Individuals to define the career path they want to develop and co-create a plan of action.

I am passionate about talents and strengths and help people (re)discover their talents and integrate them towards achieving a more fulfilling personal and professional life.

I also give workshops, webinars and organise retreats on different topics.

I am passionate about making the most of our potential and that is what I wish for my clients too. As a result I aim at creating that space for my clients where they can explore who they are and what they stand for and what they want, while finding the courage and energy to live a life leading from inside out. My coaching style is gentle yet firm, focused yet flexible according to the needs of my clients. While working hard, I also want to have fun!

I work with driven corporate professionals in their late 20s to early 40s who are brilliant at what they do and want to take the next step in their career. Whether this be getting a promotion, improving leadership skills, boosting your work performance, getting a well deserved salary raise or changing career direction completely.

I have spent over 10 years working as an executive in investment banking and leaving the corporate environment to launch my coaching business, which gives me a unique perspective on the challenges professionals are facing within companies today and how to build a thriving career within organizations as well as what it takes to successfully change careers.

There’s nothing I’m more passionate about than helping my clients with exploring their own unique strengths, how to define success on their terms and achieving their career ambitions starting with purpose.I work with driven corporate professionals in their late 20s to early 40s who are brilliant at what they do and want to take the next step in their career. Whether this be getting a promotion, improving leadership skills, boosting your work performance, getting a well deserved salary raise or changing career direction completely.

My clients tell me that my positive energy and optimism is infectious and has them wanting to take back control of their careers and life, as well.

I work with people who want to make changes in their working life and are longing for greater fulfilment in their career. Clients have often been successful in their career so far, but now describe feeling stuck or at a crossroads where:

• they want to do something that feels more meaningful or ‘right for them’
• they want to regain balance in their lives or are facing changes such as returning to work after having children or redundancy
• working out what to do next feels overwhelming; some have a dream but no plan, others have little idea yet, just not what they are doing now!

I also coach people in small/medium businesses or organisations who want to help maximise their own or others performance. I am experienced at coaching leaders and their teams on a wide range of goals including leadership, emotional intelligence, managing change, building confidence and self-awareness, MBTI and career development.

People say I am engaging, creative and intuitive; that I am warm, have empathy and help facilitate their thinking with thought provoking and outcome focused questions. A client recently said “Working with Emily has been by far my most positive and successful experience of having a coach… for the first time I have a clear plan to develop my career.”

I enjoy helping people who are ready to focus on new possibilities and want support to create a plan to make it happen. I am forever inspired by what they can accomplish and by the courage and commitment it takes for them to make a change. I only have to hear the theme tune to the film ‘Chariots of Fire’ to feel stirred!

I coach people face to face in the Brighton area or anywhere by phone.

All aspects of business, personal and behavioral coaching. I work across all sectors with a mix of gender and role/position in the organisation.

As a career coach I can help you to create the working life that you really want. I work with a wide range of individuals, ranging from those just starting out in the workplace, through returners to the work, to those who are looking for more career satisfaction.

My coaching style is collaborative. I provide a calm and constructive coaching environment in which you will feel at ease and together we can identify your strengths and passions to create a career you will love. We will look at barriers and create a road-map that will take you from where you are now to where you want to be.

How we work together will be led by you; we can work within a structured programme or take a more flexible approach.

I specialise in creative leadership, team and career development. I work primarily with leaders and managers in the creative industries, having spent the first 18 years of my own career working in creative, media and technology companies.

My special interests lie in supporting leaders and teams navigating high pressure and fast changing environments, managing challenging relationships and stress. We might focus on developing self awareness and calibrating your impact, managing energy and priorities, maintaining confidence and resilience or work/life balance.

Clients often come to me at a turning point in their career - planning a new direction, a promotion and increased responsibility, navigating peak delivery time, leading a new team or leading organisational changes.

I encourage fearless self exploration, with curiosity, without judgement. I enjoy finding imaginative ways to help you gain clarity, deeper insight and access to your full range of personal resources.

It’s important to me that we collaborate as equals in a coaching relationship. We design the process together all the way through, to suit you. I trust your innate wisdom and creativity and when I offer you ideas or observations it’s without attachment to being right.

My clients have used the words ‘supportive’, ‘challenging’, ‘empowering’ and ‘fun’ to describe working with me.

Explore, dream and discover. How great would it be to do something you enjoy and to stand in your strengths?

A bit more about me:

With over 15 years’ experience working in both TV production and Media Recruitment, my desire to help, the want to listen, motivate and inspire has always been part of my story line.

Over the past years I've spent my time helping clients find their way and strengthen the talents they possess or help them build their confidence to get unstuck to move forward.

The inspiration to become a Coach came in my previous role working as a Senior Consultant.  After speaking to hundreds of job seekers, who were either on their path or who needed help creating a clear vision, I realised that coaching was the part of my role that I was most passionate about.  Some of the candidates even recommended me to become a Coach!

After moving countries and going through 4 career transition (and many other life events) , I have now found my own calling which is to coach to you to become the best version of yourself .

My degree and qualifications from the highly-respected Coaches Training Institute and Firework Career Coaching, have given me the tools, knowledge and inspiration to help you move forwards and to find fulfilment within your profession.

What did some others say?

 “When I first met Audrey, I was stuck in a job that was making me miserable and I had no idea what else to do. Our work together gave me clarity, helping me to visualise what I really wanted and how I could get there. Each time I met Audrey, I came away feeling empowered; realising something new or making a new decision for myself. Asides from focusing on my career, I always felt like I could talk to Audrey about other areas of my life, and she helped me to find strength and confidence. Audrey has a vibrant and positive energy and she instantly puts you at ease and feels like someone that you have known for a long time. I have now left my job and am on the path to a new career but above all, I'm so much happier!” – Jo – former teacher

“Audrey was recommended to me during a time where I felt lost in every sense of the word. I thought I knew what I wanted going into our sessions, but she gave the tools to truly carve a better path for myself. Help is an understatement when describing what Audrey can do for her clients. She provides a safe space to reflect, and guides you through your own language to find what you are looking for” – Ashley - Actor

I work with:

• Young professionals wanting to make decisions on starting their careers post school or university
• Mid-career IT professionals considering their next career move and wanting to decide whether to stay technical or move into a management/leadership role?
• People who struggle to get promoted because they tend to be introvert, thinkers and undersell themselves

I combine a background of over 20 years knowledge and hands-on experience of IT and business change in both the Telecoms and Financial Services sectors with my skills as a Career Coach and Trainer. Having spent many years working in the fast changing environment of business change alongside bringing up two daughters, I have a good understanding and many insights of the challenges faced by mid-career professionals.

In my coaching, I create an environment for my clients that is both supportive and challenging. I help you think creatively and intuitively about your career and enable you to find new insights and perspectives. After working with me, you will have clarity on your next steps and the confidence to make it happen.

What my clients say about my coaching:

• Corrine is an experienced, knowledgeable and insightful career coach using NLP tools and techniques together with her deep understanding of people and behaviours to help others achieve their potential.
• Every time I work with Corrine I always come away having picked up a real gem of personal discovery

I specialise with coaching relationships where:

• an individual is focussed on driving his/her career,
• an individual is developing him or herself (leader or other capabilities)
• an individual is identified as Top Talent.

I combine an energetic approach with deep knowledge and vast experience in areas of HR and Talent Management to drive valuable outcomes and very tangible results.

I balance the big picture view with an understanding of how people actually do their work.

Helping people reach full potential is paramount to me. I am eager to support, share and partner with individuals and teams to achieve this.

I have worked in multi cultural environments with a focus on people for over 25 years, across multiple industries including mining, management consulting, banking and FMCG working for blue chip organisations such as Anglo American, Accenture, Credit Suisse and Kimberly-Clark.

I am a HOGAN assessor and highly recommend the use of this valuable tool to enhance self awareness and provide focus for areas of development.

You may expect me, as your Coach, to:
• Be your ally, care for you, support your vision and goals and to provide structure that supports you in making conscious choices
• Ask you to step beyond your present limitations as you bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be
• Be an objective listener
• Tell the truth and give you straight feedback. I will not be confrontational. Instead, I will invite you to look differently at yourself, those around you and your choices.

As we work together here is what Coaching will require from you:
• Be committed to living an extraordinary life
• Be responsible for the results of your coaching process
• Be committed to the coaching sessions and taking action as required (sometimes every week)
• See every interaction as an opportunity to integrate and synthesise what you learn about Coaching with your own thinking, speaking and actions
• Tell the truth; be honest with yourself and me even if it is uncomfortable.

My business experience and coaching focus is very much on personal and organisational development and the corresponding change management processes, and on delivering coaching interventions to improve resilience, performance and leadership capability. I also specialises in coaching individuals to develop an authentic leadership presence, particularly those moving from middle to senior management or into a Board level role.

I provide a calm and constructive coaching environment in which clients feel at ease and able to be honest about how they are feeling about their work and their lives. I bring wisdom and kindness into the space, letting in the light that enables clients to tap into their own authentic resourcefulness and to create a better future for themselves.

I support clients during major transitions in their life, and guide them to follow their inner compass. We look at making changes from the inside out: If offer career change expertise as well as during any form of personal transition. As all parts of our lives are connected we'll deep dive into all areas of life.

I'll support you on your journey to
- reconnect with yourself
- identify and release inner blocks
- deepen your learning about yourself
- discover what really matters to you
- and to create the life you aspire to

I offer coaching sessions in English and German.

It is my deep belief that we sometimes need to slow down to move forward.

You may be in a state of transition in your life, whether personal or career-wise. Are you going through major changes, considering alternative career options, setting up a new business or simply need an excuse to take a break?

As a transition coach and communications consultant I’ve worked with many international clients all over the globe.

I focus on one-on-one coaching sessions via Skype as well as facilitating workshops and retreats in unusual locations which allow you to take a step back from your busy daily routine and create headspace to reconnect with yourself and allow room for inspiration and transformation.
