Strategic Coaching for Founders
All founders have blind spots. Perhaps you’ve got a team around you, perhaps it’s just you and another founder. The thing about blind spots is that you can’t see your own. And even if you can, you’re often too close to the problem to be able to solve it yourself. You need an external perspective.
Liz has worked with dozens of tech and creative founders to shape both their growth as leaders and as businesses.
As an ex-Commercial Director of a 120+ person product studio, she knows the path to success and the failures to avoid along the way.
Each coaching programme is unique and designed to meet your goals, budget and timeframes. This could be:
1-1 coaching just for you
Founder Team coaching (2-4 people)
Senior team coaching (4-8 people)
A mix of all of the above
An example programme
SETTING AMBITIOUS
GOALS
We’ll start by defining your strategic priorities, where you need to invest in processes or people, the opportunities you need to get ahead of and mindsets you need to shift. All with clearly defined measures of success. This will serve as the backbone to our programme and your focus for the year.
DEVELOPING YOUR LEADERSHIP
How are you inspiring others and sharing your vision? What are your default styles and how are these impacting others? What do you value in others? How are you bringing others with you on the journey? We’ll explore all of these questions in depth to unlock new levels of self awareness for you and your team.
REFOCUSING YOUR PRIORITIES
Where’s the most valuable focus for your time and energy? What do you need to delegate or let go of? We’ll identify the most valuable areas for you and those around you so you can laser-focus your strengths on the right things.
DECISION MAKING
CLARITY
How are decisions made in your business? Who’s responsible, how are those communicated and where are things falling between the gaps? We’ll define your decision making principles, org structure risks and help you close the gaps with a clear plan of action.
FOUNDING TEAM
DYNAMICS
Not all partnerships are smooth sailing, sometimes things feel less equitable and balanced that you’d like. We’ll explore your peer relationships and how to reset and communicate your boundaries and needs.
ENHANCING TEAM PERFORMANCE
Who’s in your senior team? How are they contributing and where are they lacking? What roles are you missing? We’ll work with you to create individual development plans for each person so you’re supported for growth and able to give clear feedback for them to act on.
