1-1 Coaching

A personalised, purposeful and performance-enhancing coaching experience

Structured and motivating 1-1 coaching, designed to deliver meaningful results quickly. A series of four X 60 minute, 1-1 sessions will be deeply focussed on a co-defined goal; whether that’s linked to a change of mindset, attitude or belief, building competency or targeting impact on a timely project. Sometimes it helps to centre on a question, like 'how can I be the best possible leader for my team?'

An initial Reflective Assessment will start to sharpen focus, and create some simple benchmarking to measure progress and impact. We’ll also pull in relevant peer perspectives where helpful, before goals are drafted and defined with a matched coach.

A Reflective Assessment

At the outset you'll reflect on your current tendencies in times of change, and create a benchmark of your tolerance for uncertainty — to then measure against in time too.

Tools to Test

Across the programmes three modules, you'll be offered evidence-led tools and experiments for increasing your uncertainty tolerance — creating experiences and evidence to bring into the live workshops.

Social Sessions

Each of the three modules will include a collaborative, facilitated workshop — hosted in-person or virtually — creating space for social connection, peer learning and digging deeper into tools together.

Managing Uncertainty

Your three programme modules

Module 1: Reframing Uncertainty — from Fear to Opportunity
Module 1: Reframing Uncertainty — from Fear to Opportunity

Uncertainty feels uncomfortable, but it doesn’t have to hold you back. This opening module will help you understand why uncertainty triggers stress, recognise your personal response patterns, and shift your mindset — helping you see change not as a threat, but as a space for growth and possibility.

Module 2: Navigating Change — with Active Adaptability
Module 2: Navigating Change — with Active Adaptability

Resilience isn’t about avoiding uncertainty, it’s about being prepared for it. In this module, you’ll explore practical proactive strategies for staying flexible, making confident decisions when all the information isn't available, and leveraging your strengths in times of unpredictability.

Module 3: Leading through Uncertainty – Enabling Others for Change
Module 3: Leading through Uncertainty – Enabling Others for Change

This module focuses on leading with clarity, building psychological safety, and guiding teams through change with confidence. You’ll learn how to foster trust, communicate in a way that makes the implicit explicit, and actively mitigate uncertainty for others in all kinds of context.

Our Managing Uncertainty programme content has been developed with leading subject-matter experts in the field — like clinical psychologist, and trauma specialist Dr. Sam Akbar (pictured) — and is grounded in significantly peer-reviewed behavioural models (such as Self-Determination Theory, Ryan & Deci). Your evaluation of your own experimentation throughout will further help enrich evidence of impact, and refine the programme for future participants.
