Licensed Firework coaches

Graham Tate

I coach face to face across the UK and I am based in Herefordshire

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.

Anne Gelebart

Amsterdam

I help individuals who want a successful and fulfilling career whilst having time for their family and friends (Professionals looking for a meaningful career or for their next step, Professionals looking for a better work life balance, Trailing spouse looking for a career change or looking for a job).

I am an empathetic & open-minded coach, and I can sometimes be confronting. My coachees say they came out with practical lifetime tools to help them move forward, they also feel that their focus has increased and that their self-awareness has grown tremendously. This has often resulted in a promotion or a visible impact on their peers’ interactions.

Gayl Long

Berkshire, United Kingdom

I help leaders and individuals who are in transition, finding direction, building confidence and resilience in times of change to enable clients to achieve and sustain success.

Before specialising as an executive coach, I worked as a senior HR professional for major blue chip global matrix organisations concentrating on recruitment, change management, acquisition and divestment, post merger integration, talent and performance management. I have worked in manufacturing, commercial, sales and professional services environments including well known brands such as Bayer, ICI, Syngenta, Siemens and Unigate. I also have experience of building supplies, engineering and banking sectors.

I am a Professional Certified Coach with the ICF, a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development and a Master Practitioner in NLP.

Rachel Schofield

London

I help smart women redesign a workable and fulfilling career path after motherhood. My clients have taken time out to raise their family and are ready to re-connect with their professional self. But simply diving back into their old industry isn’t going to cut it. They want space and support to get clear on their skills, strengths and passions, to explore other avenues and think differently.

My mission is to champion and challenge you. Help you shake off the doubts and ditch the procrastination. Reawaken your self-belief and get you in action. I am passionate about helping women not lose themselves amid the highs and lows of motherhood. I want us to be able to reconnect with who we were, finally create space to take stock, and find a realistic way to realise the dreams or ambitions we still have. There's a lot of life still to be lived as your children grow. Don't you owe it to yourself to make a conscious choice about how you spend it?

Michelle Bayley

Based in Twickenham, West London. Work with London based, UK-wide and overseas clients.

I specialise in career transition coaching and train other coaches to use the Firework career change process. Over the past 13 years I've worked with people from a wide range of backgrounds, including:

  • 30 and 40 somethings who feel their current work isn't what they want to do until they retire;
  • women with young families who want work that fits better with the rest of their life;
  • 20 somethings who have fallen into work that they know isn't the right match for them; and
  • people of all ages who want to feel they're doing something more purposeful than their current job.

I also work with people who want to get a promotion, who have recently moved from management to leadership or who want to improve any aspect of their current work. And I do general life coaching, helping people to find a way forward with anything, from a relationship issue to improving their confidence and generally living a happier life.

Obi James

London, UK

I coach mid- and senior-level professionals in the corporate sector (predominantly financial services), helping them to position their personal brand, successfully navigate their networks and expand career possibilities.

My coaching approach draws from:

a) Latest findings in the field of neuroscience to create an understanding of how coaching impacts neuroplasticity and helps build the psychological skills needed to support lasting change.

b) Systemic Thinking to help senior professionals, executives and business leaders to look beyond individual development to find solutions which also benefit the wider systems they're part of.

c) My strong corporate experience in senior leadership and organisational development roles within large multinational organisations. This means my coaching approach is tailored to factor in pressures and constraints that come with leadership responsibility in these organisations.

Julie Greaves

London, UK

I specialise in coaching mid to senior level managers and leaders who are navigating change professionally and personally. I work with a mix of private and corporate clients, here in the UK and internationally.

I help people: preparing for or transitioning into a new role, taking on additional responsibilities, leading change within their organisation, looking for new opportunities, dealing with redundancy, considering a career change, or looking to improve performance.

I support my clients to develop a greater sense of self so that they can move forward in their career with clarity, alignment, and joy.

Jo Painter

Bishops Stortford, UK

I coach:
- women who are lack the confidence to be able to make the change out of their current job into the career they have a real passion for
- women who struggle with self-doubt and aren't sure what career they are suited to
- women going back into the workplace lacking confidence after a career break

As your coach I would:

- Empower you to make choices and changes in your life and career
- Support you, with tools and skills, to improve your self-esteem and give you the confidence to achieve those changes
- Motivate you to ensure you have the resilience to complete your journey
-Challenge any limiting beliefs which are holding you back and enable you to replace them with positive beliefs
