I help people achieve their goals through coaching.

I don’t play tennis, or any sport for that matter, but it was how I imagine being coached by a tennis pro would be like – gentle tweaks and adjustments, and novel perspectives that together generate a lasting, cumulative impact.

…unexpected, added bonuses of working with Robert included making space for strategy and creative work, mastering the process of people management, getting a better work-life balance and making time to exercise. Robert’s gentle and patient coaching style really worked for me and I feel equipped with some principles and practices which will serve me well in future.

One of the joys of my work is helping people achieve meaningful goals in their work and life, often to an extent they hadn’t dare to hope was possible.

I combine two decade of experience as a CTO together with a decade of experience coaching some of the brightest and busiest executives across a wide range of industries. In my work as a coach and consultant, I have supported a variety of clients, from early-stage start-ups to household names like AT&T Warner Media, ITV, Barclays, The University of Edinburgh, The Scottish Government, and London Business School.

Increasingly my focus is on values-led performance coaching for engineering leadership, and coaching high-performing adults with ADHD.

I offer confidential one-to one sessions, typically one hour per week held virtually, where we work together to identify meaningful outcomes, develop structure, offer encouragement, overcome obstacles, and celebrate success.

Common topics include:

  • executive function
  • systems & processes
  • leading people with integrity
  • decision-making paradigms
  • tools for self-reflection
  • constructive feedback
  • aligning technology with business

I bring curiosity, a collaborative approach, and a toolset of techniques refined over many years. You bring an open mind, a learning attitude, and willingness to be honest with yourself and me about what’s working, what’s not working, and what you want most of all to be true. That is how coaching works best.

Over the years, people have had nice things to say about the results of our work together.

Every client is unique, and so I look forward to getting to know how you work, learn, and think—as well as what brings you alive and where you want to go next. Some of the most successful people I have worked with over the years all have one thing in common—they know the value of calling in an outside perspective for feedback, encouragement, and support. That’s what I do. I look forward to hearing from you.
