My love of coaching and consulting was an inevitable outcome of my journey through self-discovery and awareness in all aspects of life.

I believe personal progress plays a vital role in success in business life. I decided that coaching should occupy a greater part of my professional life; hence I started to attend relevant certificate and non-certificate programs whenever I possibly could. This then led to a great urge to exercise all my new learning with colleagues, friends & family. Experiencing brilliant results with all, has only increased my belief in coaching not only as a path to personal development but also as a key to professional success.

Having 20 years of corporate experience in a multinational company in the service sector, including several senior management responsibilities; my resources are quite diverse in all aspects. Having said this, I have endeavoured to focus on progress in individuals in order to achieve goals as a group.

My approach to coaching puts aside any prejudices about the coach / coachee relationship. I have reached an understanding that I am neither a psychologist nor the coachee is a patient with some sort of guilty conscious to be dealt with. Our mutual and ultimate goal for the coachee is to enable them to enjoy a “better” personal and professional life in every possible aspect. Therefore, maximum involvement, interaction & exchange with the coachee is an absolute necessity for solid and sustainable results.

I have developed an honest, very sincere yet also a very straightforward style in coaching. On the one hand trying to focus on individual assets and bring forward the positive aspects & real potential, while on the other; trying even harder to enable people to face, and most importantly deal with, their negative and limiting aspects.

I have completed the CTI UK / Co-Active Coaching and Co-Active Leadership programs and am currently attending the Organization & Relationship Systems Coaching program which is to be completed shortly. Some of my previous professional responsibilites involved being Regional Director for Hotelbeds Accommodation & Destination Services; which is now a subsidiary of TUI Travel PLC. I have a BA in Business Administration. People define me as an outgoing and larger-than-life individual who is an outdoor enthusiast with an even greater love of personal development programs of all sorts. I am happily married and a father of 2; who happens to be enjoying the renaissance period of his life thanks to recent coaching experiences.
