Our Philosophy

People and Practice work with individuals and teams who are willing to do meaningful work. This means helping people see grey scales not black and white boxes. To question and understand themselves, enhancing their awareness of the systems and cultures they live and work in to spend their time on what creates meaning and honesty for them and the people around them. 

In this, the underpinning philosophy is about context and nuance, embracing simplicity where simplicity exists but not at the cost of doing the meaningful work at the root of change. This is thinking with head, heart and gut, accessing information and data that inhibit growth and authenticity. We coach “people" not just executives, entrepreneurs or personal coaching, because how you chose to make a living and spend your days invariably affects your life, and how you chose to spend your life has an impact on your work. The coaching takes place in your focused context, but don’t slice people into separate parts when we know they are connected, and we need to look at the whole person or team for change. The approach is equal parts creative and scientific backed with neuroscience and innovation, past and future, digital and raw, empirical and emotion based; we meet you in the moment where you are now as an individual, team or organisation. 

We offer coaching to individuals and teams, mentoring, coach training, targeted leadership programmes and facilitation (including transformation, innovation, disruption, openness and bias), and organisational culture consulting. All of our Associates are certified coaches and have training with group dynamics and systems and understand the interplay between people and practice.
