Elaine Akester

Leadership Coach - Nottingham, Manchester & Birmingham

I am an EMCC Global Master Accredited Leadership Coach, with over 5000 coaching hours & 18 years of continual corporate coaching practice.

Chief Officer & Board Level Coaching
I specialise in working with Chief Officers and their senior leadership teams, supporting them clarify identity, brand and impact to leverage for maximum value and performance. My coaching style combines the presence and skills of an expert master level coach, the insight and focus of a lawyer, wrapped around the heart of a mindful practitioner . 360 feedback & individual & team profiling can blended into coaching assignments, where appropriate. Most importantly I consistently add real value to any leader and leadership team that I work with. This, I add, by supporting Leaders and their teams quickly gain insight and clarity into their leadership identity, brand and impact, and then work with them to optimise core strengths whilst directly addressing unhelpful patterns in mindset and behaviours. "Shadow" Coaching, where pertinent, is a part of this coaching programme.

My coaching sector experience includes the following sectors and industries:
Travel, Technology, Automotive manufacturing, engineering, retail, construction, financial services, professional regulatory bodies, the NHS, scientific research, universities, housing associations and local government.
