Our Services

We create practical, thoughtful spaces where leaders and teams can grow, adapt,
and lead well – with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Leadership Development

We design leadership programmes that are as unique as your people. No templates, no tick-boxes. Just evidence-informed journeys shaped around your team’s challenges, strengths, and goals.

Whether you're supporting first-time managers or building a strong senior bench, we create programmes that deliver practical growth and lasting change.

Coaching

We offer one-to-one, team and executive coaching that’s grounded, personal, and
built around your real-world context. From career transitions and confidence building to talent strategy and performance alignment, we use coaching to unlock clarity, challenge stuck thinking, and help people move forward with purpose.

Change and Culture Advisory

We support organisations navigating change – from culture shifts and restructures to leadership transitions and new ways of working. Our approach is thoughtful, collaborative, and rooted in what actually helps people adapt well.

Dont just take our word for it

Working with Barbara Paterson has been a truly transformative experience, both professionally and personally. Her guidance helped me reframe challenges as opportunities and empowered me to believe in my potential in ways I had not before. With a deep understanding of human behaviour and business dynamics, she was able to unlock my confidence, shift my mindset, and help me reconnect with my own strengths. She pushed me beyond my comfort zone with empathy and precision, encouraging bold decisions while always staying grounded in what really matters. Thanks to her coaching, I have evolved into a more balanced, commercially astute, and inspiring business professional. Her influence continues to shape not just how I lead, but how I live.

I would recommend BarbaraPaterson as an exceptional career coach, mentor, and skilled facilitator of senior executives. During a pivotal period of transition in my career she was a professional, genuine supportive presence. She was honest and insightful, providing valuable new perspectives. She had belief in my capability in difficult circumstances. Through our discussions I gained confidence and motivation to transition successfully to a new role. She was able to both give practical guidance as well as show empathy and deep understanding to emotional challenges that come with change..

This Senior Leadership programme has been truly transformational – it will shape both my personal development and strategic thinking going forward. The experiential exercises really brought the theories to life, showing how they apply in practice. The coaching was exceptional, and the blend of workshops, coaching, and action learning made it engaging, relevant, and hugely enjoyable.Barbaraand Nick were outstanding facilitators, bringing valuable perspectives that enriched the experience. My only wish is that it had lasted longer, as I was just beginning to see the progress take root. I would highly recommend this programme.
