What our clients say
“Having worked with Nick for over a year as my leadership coach, I can unequivocally say that his impact on my professional growth has been profound. Nick’s personalised coaching style resonates deeply and effectively. He has a unique talent for identifying areas of potential that I was previously unaware of and has guided me not only to
recognise these but also to turn them into strengths.
His coaching has refined my approach to challenges, enabling me to lead with greater confidence, clarity, and perspective. What sets Nick apart is his authentic investment in my success”
“Starting my first Senior Leadership position could have been a daunting experience. However, my confidence soared due to my coaching sessions with Nick at Persyou. Nick gave me a safe space to believe in myself and trust my abilities to make effective decisions that benefit our students and staff. Nick can naturally help you overcome challenges by harnessing the leadership qualities you already have. I highly recommend Nick’s coaching sessions for those stepping into leadership positions”
"Coaching by Nicholas has indeed been an enriching experience. It helped me to gain a deeper understanding of the coaching spectrum and skills for leading and coaching my team in a smoother and efficient way. It not only inspired me to use improved questioning but also made me more self-aware and responsible towards my own learning development."
"Having been a Headteacher in three schools and a competitor in Crossfit and Badminton, life has always been very busy and well occupied and balanced. Starting a new job in my fifth London local authority, a new headship, with an injury highlighted just how important professional coaching is. Nick at Persyou has been key to facilitating this space for me, where challenges as leaders come thick and fast, composure, calm and acceptance of reality were key components of our sessions. Will absolutely recommend Nick and Persyou to leaders – to me it has become just as important as my health and fitness!"
“As a coach, Nick has really challenged my thinking. Nick has asked questions that have encouraged me to reflect on my leadership journey and supported me in finding the answers. Nick's coaching has been truly inspiring.”
"Nicholas' skilful and informed practice has made significant positive difference on my own thinking and therefore is helping my colleagues and the institution I lead. I would thoroughly recommend Nicholas' coaching."
FAQs
At Persyou we define coaching as a skilful dialogic partnership in a cocreated and experimental space that empowers you to flourish. Generally, the agenda will be led by you, however, a leader coach may share their own experience and reactions to prompt insights and evoke awareness in you. Ultimately, you are responsible for your own development which is why
being committed is key.
We integrate a variety of approaches including constellation relationship mapping, physical intelligence and hybrid digital tools. You can discuss this with your leadership coach in the initial sessions and throughout the partnership. Remember this is not being done ‘to you’, it is a partnership, so you must feedback to your coach on what
works for you.
This is about your priorities for development, although the latest research from Oxford Brookes University on what coaches and clients talk about highlight some of the following topics: managing people, developing presence and impact, confidence, effective communication, relationship challenges and career planning.
We generally say schedule up to an hour in your diary for a session. It may be that we accomplish things in a shorter period which is also fine, and you may want to have a longer session at certain times. The key is to be sharp and focussed on what you want to achieve.
We generally provide one-to-one coaching online to allow flexibility. This also allows you to engage with the best coaches at a time that works for you in your world. There may also be occasions where an in-person session is possible dependent on schedules and location.
As a general rule we work to 6 or 12 sessions to allow relationships to build, awareness to develop and impact to be seen. This is a very personal thing however and you may want to have a single session for example. When first working with us we can discuss what you are looking for.
It may be beneficial for you to have a think about what you would like to explore in the sessions itself. We provide access to our coaching chatbots that can support you in gaining clarity before a session. We also allow for flexibility as insights emerge during a session.
We partner with full time professional coaches who are all highly credentialled. We employ a ‘leaders coaching leaders’ ideology and are passionate about bringing you a range of coaches from different sectors, backgrounds and experiences – from former Olympians to university, education and business contexts and behavioural scientists. We also offer ‘combination’ coaching, where you could have different coaches work with you on a variety of different challenges.
Our coaches are equipped to administer a range of leadership and strengths assessments to support your development. Remember these are not a labelling, only a starting point to ignite and consolidate the coaching process.
We provide access to our coaching chatbots which provide you with online digital coaching, whenever and wherever you are. You will also get access to our Persyou Pioneers hub, which is stacked with masterclass sessions from a range of organisational and professional development specialists.
