Coaching from someone who has led people for 35 years

Understanding the human side

Thirty five years of leadership have taught me how being human gets in the way of being the leader we aspire to be. Neuroscience helps us understand ourselves better, and be more forgiving of our faults.

Getting out of your own way

I trained as a Playing Big Facilitator with Tara Mohr and share tools that help you change the patterns that get in your way, seeing a pattern is not the same as breaking it, something new has to take its place and that's how coaching will help you achieve your goals.

Real business experience

From 20 years as a bank manager to building two businesses of my own, I bring the business acumen that only comes from doing it. I understand the pressure you're under, because I've been there. I champion you and believe in your success sometimes before you do.

  • “Kaidi has been amazing at helping me realise my worth, strengthen my confidence, and embed the tools I need to improve my work (and home) life.

    She is very personable with an excellent understanding of what can hold us back in life. With a great rapport we were able to work through longstanding, limiting beliefs to discover my true potential and values. I would (and have!) highly recommend Kaidi to anyone in need of support for a friendly but firm approach. It really does allow you to see the world, and yourself, in a different - more positive - light.”

  • “As a senior people manager in the NHS Kaidi provided some tailored coaching sessions for me, which proved insightful and extremely worthwhile. Each session was tailored to what we identified would be helpful from the previous session. We used the time to discuss feedback, difficult conversations, career exploration, CV support, strengths, weaknesses, style, as well as generally discussing and helping me identify the leadership difficulties I had been having and where I wanted my career to go.

    Kaidi was supportive but also challenging in a positive way, which helped me to explore truly where and what I wanted to do.

    I honestly did not believe the coaching would have much impact at all at the outset, but how wrong I was. Kaidi enabled me to be clear on my priorities and goals and empowered me to have some challenging conversations.

    If you are reading this you are obviously contemplating coaching and I highly recommend you undertake this with Kaidi. Without sounding too emotive, Kaidi positively changed my life.”
