Executive Coaching
Executive presence, visibility, presentation and confidence coaching.
Leaders who can inspire, influence and engage the people around them are the key to unlocking productivity, creativity, problem-solving and growth for their organisation.
It doesn't matter what level you're at, being seen and heard by the people who matter is vital to moving forward - in your career, in your leadership role and for your organisation.
For leaders, and those on a journey to leadership, being able to communicate with confidence is paramount. It means they can engage their teams, get buy-in for their ideas and advance their goals. Or they run the risk of losing people's interest and will fail to inspire or have impact.

Coaching tailored for you
This is for leaders and emerging talent to engage their teams, get buy-in for their ideas and progress their careers. Our executive coaching clients have greater impact and influence in their organisations and are better equipped to communicate with confidence.
Testimonials for our executive coaching
I can't thank you enough
Some people have the ability to blend exquisite listening with impactful insight that breaks into the heart of who your are as a person. Over a fantastic six month period in 2023, I was lucky enough to work with Penny in this coaching environment that has revealed such a huge amount to me in terms of how to think clearly, listen intently, and convey with impact. I can't thank Penny enough for this time, and if any of this interests you even a little bit, I would encourage you to get in touch.
Fraser MacDougall, Marketing Director, The Mortgage Lender
The difference Penny has made is immeasurable
I made it a personal development goal this year to improve on my presentation style and profile outside the organisation - as my inner voice was constantly hammering my confidence. I sought support from the amazing Penny Haslam whom I can’t rate highly enough - to help me overcome self-doubt and work on my style and delivery.
Abigail Scott Paul, (formerly) Deputy Director, Joseph Rowntree Foundation
I was promoted to partner
I worked with Penny Haslam to develop my communication capability and executive presence, as I was on the cusp of stepping up to MD at Results IG. She quickly understood my situation around the need to establish credibility and have impact and influence among senior colleagues and clients. Penny shared valuable tools and techniques to enhance my style. As a young and ambitious individual, I also sought ideas about bolstering my confidence to lead. Penny was helpful in all of the above and I enjoyed working with her. And in further testament to the long-lasting impact of the work I did with her, I was promoted to Partner only 2 years later!
Mark Williams, Partner Results IG
Fantastic!
Penny’s work with our leaders was sensational – they have gone on to use what they learnt to great effect. The feedback has been fantastic.

I can be a more powerful and more relatable, truer, version of me
My confidence has increased greatly, particularly around less scripted speaking, for example in interviews and making mini videos. I used to shy away from these opportunities, but now I recognise that I can be a more powerful and more relatable, truer, version of me.
Rowena Birch, OLY, MBA, President of British Judo
I'm making a real impact
I find that I’m now inspiring women to think of tech as a career, by being more visible and showing them it's possible. In their words I have ‘changed their lives’. If I can support them to enter the industry or progress into leadership positions, I feel that I'm making a difference and having a real impact.
