Bottleneck

"It's faster if I do it myself." Maybe it was once. But now everything flows through you and nothing moves when you are unavailable. You have become the constraint on your own business.

Reactive mode

All day on fires. Strategic thinking happens at 9pm, if at all. Your calendar is full but your highest-value work is not on it. You are working in the business when you should be working on it.

Isolation

Senior enough that you cannot vent down. Too small for a genuine C-suite peer group. You are carrying weight that nobody else in the business fully sees. 50% of CEOs report loneliness and 61% say it hinders their performance.

Coaching with a commercial lens

I don't ask "How does that make you feel?" I ask: "Is this the highest commercial use of your time right now?"

My role is to be your sparring partner. Over 3 months, you'll delegate at least one major responsibility, protect strategic time in your calendar, and identify the behavioural patterns keeping you in delivery. The goal is a permanent shift in how you lead, not a temporary boost.

The Leadership Sprint

A structured 3-month engagement to move you from doing to leading.

Month 1

Diagnose

Full LTI diagnostic. We map where your time actually goes versus where it should go. We identify the specific habits, fears, and defaults keeping you in delivery. You build a personal operating system blueprint. You make your first delegation commitment.

Month 2

Rewire

Bi-weekly sessions focused on execution. Calendar architecture. Boundary scripts. Delegation handoffs. Each session ends with a concrete commitment reviewed at the next one. This is where the behaviour changes.

Month 3

Sustain

We stress-test the new operating system against real-world pressure. Client escalations, quarterly reviews, team problems. We build an accountability framework that works without me. The goal is that you don't need ongoing coaching, though the Extended Partnership exists if you want it.

What is included

  • ✓ Six bi-weekly strategy sessions (60-90 minutes)
  • ✓ Full LTI diagnostic and debrief
  • ✓ Personal DISC profile
  • ✓ Library of leadership templates and frameworks

£4,500 + VAT

Limited to 3 clients per quarter

If coaching helps you recover 5 hours a week of strategic time over 3 months, that is 60 hours back. At your day rate, the Sprint pays for itself twice over.

Who this is for

MDs and founders

who built the business and now cannot step away from it. The business runs through you and you know it needs to stop.

Ops Directors

managing chaos they can never get ahead of. You own the systems but lack the authority to enforce them. You need to move from firefighter to architect.

Account Directors

stepping into leadership for the first time. You got promoted because you were the best at delivery. Nobody taught you how to lead.

Not a fit for individual contributors without leadership responsibility, leaders looking for a quick fix, or anyone who wants a consultant to do it for them rather than changing their own behaviour.

Common questions

I'm not an MD. Is this for me? +
Yes. The Leadership Sprint is for anyone in a senior role navigating the shift from doing to leading. That includes Ops Directors, Account Directors, Heads of Department, and Partners.
Is this confidential? +
Completely. Nothing from your sessions is shared with anyone, including your employer if they are paying for the coaching.
What if my agency is paying for this? +
Many agencies invest in coaching as leadership development. I can provide a proposal and invoicing structure that works for your finance team. The coaching itself remains confidential to you.
Do you work outside agencies? +
I work with senior leaders across professional services: agencies, consultancies, architecture practices, and similar firms with 20-150 staff. The transition from doer to leader is the same regardless of sector.
Can I pay monthly? +
Yes. The Sprint can be invoiced monthly at £1,500 + VAT over three months. I don't run single-session engagements.
How is this different from a Vistage group or peer advisory board? +
Peer groups give you perspectives from other leaders. Coaching gives you a structured process to change your own behaviour. They are complementary. If you are already in a peer group and still stuck, coaching is likely the missing piece.
