Executive Coaching

Leadership in the top management ranks is often a lonely business.  It can be difficult to get accurate feedback or to find a confidential, unbiased sounding board. 

Successful organisations identify their best and brightest and use coaching to turn them into more effective leaders. We help individuals to manage themselves, their people, and their work/life activities.  We deliver this via:

  • Highly specialised one-on-one tailored coaching
  • Focus on management techniques, strategies, and best practices for successful leadership
  • Skilled,empathetic executive coaches with varying industry backgrounds and operational, leadership experience

Our Adelaide-based Executive Coaches are part advisor, part sounding board, part cheerleader, part manager and part strategist.

CLIENT FEEDBACK

  • Susan was awesome and taught me a lot. So much useful advice which has steered me well in my quest for employment. Susan was committed, knowledgeable, empathetic, considerate and I felt like she gave me so much more than I paid for. Susan went above and beyond expectation and I am truly grateful. Without Susan’s encouragement I would not have been able to continue to hold my self-esteem and be job-read when the opportunity presented.
    Deb O
  • Thankyou for all the assistance you have given me over the past few months to relaunch my career. Your work gave me a lot of confidence and helped me to significantly improve my job search skills. Not only do you have outstanding skills & knowledge about recruitment & networking, but you provide a highly personalised service. Particular thanks for meeting up with me for coffee last week. Your tips on building my profile with a view to winning paid board positions were insightful & practical as always.

  • Catherine is an exceptionally skilled and focussed Career Services Consultant. I have worked with her, for her and engaged her firm’s services for companies for whom I am responsible and I have at all times found her professionalism, grace and attention to detail outstanding. If you want the best for your own career, for the ongoing career wellbeing of those affected by change at your organisation particularly those at the highest level, then you cannot go past Catherine Cunningham.
    Eloise McFarlane, Director
  • Catherine has helped my company with a number of outplacements over the years and has always done a professional and exemplary job. I have been particularly impressed with her preparedness to go the extra mile for the individuals involved and for her immediate client (me!). Importantly Catherine has also shown great empathy but not at the expense of getting a sharp focus on achieving the best results. I have found her to be easy to talk to with a low-key style that makes her very approachable. Feedback from those she has helped has also been consistently positive.
    Malcolm Butcher, General Manager, People & Culture, RAA
  • I did it!! And I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you so much for helping me scale the mountain.
    Sarah J
  • I have hired Catherine’s services now on a number of occasions for career transition services and twice have been a client. I have found Catherine a person of the upmost integrity who delivers an excellent expert service that both challenges the individual whilst offering support and creative solutions. I can not recommend Catherine’s service highly enough.

  • Catherine, this thank you has been a long time in finding its way to you but its quite timely. My most sincerest thanks to you, especially for introducing me PARs and how to put them across at interview. And the resume – I still love it and it served me well.

  • Catherine, thank you for all your support & guidance after my redundancy. After a short contract role, I have now secured a full-time role. I’m sure that my ‘wow’ resume played a large part in securing an interview, I also really appreciated the fun we had while interview skills training together. Such a pleasure to work with you! A massive thank you.
