10. Coaching is a trend!
You may already have a personal trainer, a
financial advisor.... So why not a coach?
Top athletes all have a coach
Many top business leaders now have a coach
The magic circle law firms now have coaching
budgets
Coaching works and it is here to stay!
11. I have coached and
mentored many
senior lawyers and I
have noticed three
recurring problems....
12. By far the most common
complaint is overwhelm
and overwork!
Resulting in stress, anxiety,
feeling out of control...
13. The second problem is what
I can only describe as a
deep yearning...
Yearning to be able to take
a break – spend time with
family – go on holiday –
without thinking or
worrying about work
14. And surprising for some there is
often a deep feeling of self
doubt, not good enough, not
up to the job...
15. But we are not all the same
Your problems are unique to you
Coaching is a personal and
intimate relationship
16. The result of these unresolved issues?
Unhealthy and unhappy lawyers
17. I have a solution!
My unique one year coaching programme
About 20 sessions of up to 2 hours with me face
to face in your office or my coaching studio.
You will get homework, and reading, and
techniques to work on between sessions.
You will need on average about 4 hours a week
It is likely to be an emotional journey – you may
laugh and cry – we will tread lightly and it
will be fun.
This is a safe space to explore what makes you
you.
18. We work on 5 simple questions
What is the problem?
Who are you now to be
getting that result?
What do you really want?
What needs to change?
How can you support the
change?
19. Why coaching?
As your coach I will ask great questions
to encourage you to come up with
your own solutions.
I will help you explore, I will guide, I may
challenge and just occasionally I will
confront you - all with the intent of
helping you find a better way forward.
You are far more likely to stick to a
solution that you invented!
20. Why one year?
Your life right now is the result of
all the decisions you have ever
made – all the beliefs you have
decided to hold – the values
you have decided to hold dear.
This took quite a few years.
You need time to explore these
and make new decisions for
your future.
21. I know it works!
My life changed when I got myself
a coach over 10 years ago.
My clients send me the loveliest
thank you cards
“...My life is in such a better place
than it was a year ago and
almost every part of this is in
someway due to what we have
worked on...”
23. But seriously...
I believe HAPPY lawyers do their
BEST work. That is good for
them – good for their clients
and therefore good for their
firms.
Everyone deserves to be happy at
work!
And everyone deserves a happy
life out of work too!
24. To be happy.....
I believe you will be happy when:
You put your own self care
first.
You look after your
relationships with those you
love and care about.
You prioritise the work that has
most meaning or is most
important to you right now.
25. I would love to work with you!
I know that over the long term
coaching will transform your life.
Your clients will report better legal
outcomes and begin to make
more referrals and as changes
spread to your team you will find
lawyer retention will improve.
You will be more successful,
happier and more fulfilled.
26. Even in the short term...
Clients report positive changes as
we search for the low hanging
fruit.
Maybe relationships at home
improve, you might begin to
feel healthier or perhaps you
discover you are able to
prioritise that really important
but not so urgent work you
have been wanting to do.
27. Next steps?
Coaching can only work if we like
and trust each other so I
always start with a free
chemistry session – absolutely
no obligation – just a coffee
and a chat to see if we are
right for each other
