OUR APPROACH At Xenonex, we understand the power of Leadership Coaching right across an organisation at all levels, whether it is 1 to 1, Team, or a 'Just-in-Time' bank of hours. The Xenonex approach is challenging yet supportive, and we ensure that there is the best possible chemistry between coach and coachees. It is not our job to tell you what to do, as you have the greatest understanding of who you are and the challenges that you or your team face daily. The purpose of an executive coach is to be a confidant and to hold you accountable for your own actions. Their role is also to actively listen, challenge with empathy (but without judgement) and encourage you to surface your own insights, make choices and develop solutions. OUR EXECUTIVE COACHES Our 25 certified executive coaches have worked with directors, executives and senior leaders within some of the largest organisations across the globe. These include Vodafone, Deloitte, NHS, Sky Betting & Gaming, Lloyds Bank, KPMG, Hallmark Cards, BUPA, ASDA, Xerox, Britvic, and the wider public sector to name a few. We have coached thousands of executives over the years, and have data, expertise, and deep experience to draw from. You will find that this experience is an invaluable part of the process; to help you explore how often challenges are not unique, and that there are tried and tested approaches that can enhance performance. OUR ETHICS Our executive coaching programmes adhere to the Global Code of Ethical and Professional Good Practice in Executive Coaching.
