Great Leadership in High Stakes Moments
Executive & Crisis Coaching for organisations under pressure
Helping leaders and organisations build clarity, confidence and resilience, especially in times of change, pressure, uncertainty and disconnection
When the stakes are high, leadership is more important than ever, and it can feel harder than ever.
I help leaders and organisations in Professional Services, Universities, Healthcare, Tech, Finance, Retail & Non-profits, find calm, confidence and clarity, whether you’re guiding your team through change or navigating a personal leadership challenge.
I offer crisis and executive coaching for leaders and teams, that helps people think clearly, lead wisely and perform sustainably.
Every organisation hits moments that test its people:
Crisis, Conflict, Rapid Change or Disconnection.
These are the moments when leaders need space to think and respond wisely and strategies to achieve the organisational priorities through that.
My work creates that space. Through executive coaching, crisis coaching and leadership development, I help people and teams:
Navigate organisational crisis
Resolve conflict and tension
Develop leadership skills needed to step up
Get clear, and tap into their wisdom and resilience
So your organisation has leaders and teams who:
When things feel heavy, fast or unclear.
-
Build resilience and calm in the face of pressure
-
Lead through uncertainty with clarity and confidence
-
Strengthen relationships and communication
-
Reconnect to meaning, purpose and trust

“We brought Lucy in to provide one-to-one crisis coaching for our core team of Regional Leads.
These are managers who carry huge responsibility; overseeing the smooth running of our programmes while also leading frontline support teams. Burnout is a real risk, and with the ongoing challenges around recruitment and retention, we knew we needed to invest in supporting our leaders, especially during such a stressful period.
Lucy’s arrival came at exactly the right moment…
We were navigating a restructure, some team members were stepping into senior roles for the first time, and others were dealing with the impact of colleagues lost to redundancy.
Lucy created an independent, person-centred space for our leadership team, a space to step back from the urgent and reconnect with long-term priorities, purpose and confidence.
It was crucial to us that the coaching came from someone who truly understood our mission, our values and the pressures of working in a demanding sector. Lucy absolutely delivered this. The feedback from every team member was overwhelmingly positive.
The impact was transformative.
Morale lifted, cohesion strengthened, and the coaching directly supported the direction of our organisation’s development.
I would describe regular, independent coaching as business critical, for retention, momentum and performance, especially during complex, demanding or fast changing periods..
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lucy’s coaching, especially her one-to-one crisis support.”
