Expertise
Rosemary has extensive experience coaching business leaders and their teams in diverse sectors. Her individual coaching addresses a wide variety of situations, including taking on senior executive responsibilities, implementing change, team leadership, building leadership presence, enhancing emotional intelligence and working effectively in multicultural environments.
Adopting a systemic approach, the work Rosemary does with teams is both outward-focused (including defining the team’s mission based on stakeholder expectations, ensuring on-going communication with stakeholders) and inward- focused (including clarifying goals, roles and responsibilities and building trust, effective communication and accountability among team members).
Rosemary’s approach is to create a trusting and safe environment in which her clients can explore their opportunities and challenges, increase awareness, develop in personal maturity and make conscious, creative choices.
