Meet Laura

Hi, I’m Laura. I’m the head of learning and development at PSS. I’m passionate about supporting others to learn, progress and develop – coaching is very much a part of that process. I get a real buzz out of seeing people grow and flourish.

How I could support you

I give people space and time to think but ask questions that allow them to really dig deep and consider where you’re at and how to move forward. It’s all done in a safe space and is very much about them and the journey they want to take. I’m just there to listen and reflect back on the conversation.

I start off with a getting to know you session, which also allows us to set a contract for how we will work. The first session is about exploring the areas that you’ve have identified as needing coaching on. Through the discussion we’d work together to narrow those areas into specific goals. We end the session with you outlining your goals for the next session. From then on when we meet it’s about reflecting back on what actions there where from the last time we met, what you’ve done to meet them and what we can do next.

What’s great about coaching?

Everyone should have a coach – there is always something that we could work through better if we had that ‘critical friend’ or someone who could hold a mirror up to us and ask questions that we may not ask ourselves. It’s empowering and enlightening!
