When you need more than one-to-one

Individual coaching gets you ready to tackle your career challenges. But sometimes you need to hear how other women have handled similar situations - and sometimes the whole organisation needs to change how it operates.

That's where group coaching and team coaching come in.

The situation: You're dealing with career challenges that feel isolating - being the only woman in leadership meetings, navigating maternity leave in a sea-going role, or fighting for recognition in technical discussions. Sound familiar?

What happens here: Small groups of women (6-8 maximum) from different maritime organisations, each working on their individual career goals. You get coaching on your specific challenges while hearing how others handle similar situations.

Who this works for: Women in maritime who want intensive focus on their individual goals, plus the insight and support of peers who understand the industry context.

What we work on: Your specific career objectives - securing promotion, changing companies, building leadership presence, negotiating salary, managing workplace politics. Each woman has different goals, but everyone understands why "that's just shipping culture" isn't an acceptable answer.

The benefit: You get coaching on your individual challenges plus strategies and perspectives from women who've faced similar situations. No explaining the context, no justifying why certain behaviours are problematic - everyone gets it.

Format: 12 weeks, monthly 2-hour sessions, individual goal-setting and accountability. 

Next women's group starts December 2025 - 6 spots available. One-to-one clients get priority access to women's groups. 

The cycle you're seeing: Talented people join your organisation. They're enthusiastic, capable, and ready to contribute. Six months later, they're either disengaged or they've left for your competitors.

The real issue: It's not the calibre of people you're hiring. It's what happens to them once they're there.

What we actually do: Work with your teams using your real challenges to figure out what's driving people away and build systems that keep good people engaged.

The result: Teams that actually function as teams. Decision-making processes that harness collective expertise rather than default to hierarchy. Communication that prevents problems instead of creating them.

Who needs this: Organisations where the recruitment strategy is working but the retention strategy isn't.

How it works: We dig into the actual dynamics - not what the org chart says should happen, but what really happens when decisions get made, conflicts arise, or pressure increases.

Investment: Depends entirely on what you're dealing with - let's talk
