kirkpatrick consulting ltd
Londoner and New Zealander, career management consultant, with an early career
in technology at Diageo and British Petroleum, followed by recruitment and
management consultancy at EY, I’ve worked in executive search in financial
services and professional services for 30+ years and have built an extensive
knowledge of UK and global organisations, business functions and careers.
Qualified and accredited as a cognitive behavioural coach, with an advanced
diploma in cognitive behavioural coaching and full member of the Association for
Coaching; I began coaching in 2018, following a definitive experience coaching
woman into leadership in the insurance sector. The results spoke for themselves.
As a recruiter I focus on the appointment of an individual into a role; as a
coach I facilitate the individual’s development into and effectiveness in the
role. My coaching experience includes career transition and talent mobility,
performance, health and wellbeing, leadership transition and new role embedment.
My solutions focused approach is to work with the coachee, to provide space and
time for their self-reflection, to utilise cognitive behavioural methods to
reframe self-limiting beliefs and behaviours, to drive future focus through goal
setting and creating new guiding principles to support the coachee’s
breakthrough themes.
