№ 01 — Engagements

Three structures. One standing exit.

No packages page theatre — these are the three shapes an engagement actually takes, what each includes, and how every one of them begins.

The First Meridian

Six sessions over four months

Executives in a new or substantially bigger role — first-time CEOs, divisional MDs stepping to group, new partners.

  • A Position paper after session one: what Helen heard, in writing
  • Six 90-minute working sessions, in person in London or remote
  • One bearing review with your sponsor, where the engagement is commissioned
  • Written close-out note you can keep, use, and act on

The Standing Partnership

Twelve months · monthly sessions · open line

Established leaders who want a permanent thinking partner rather than an intervention.

  • Monthly 90-minute sessions, standing in the diary
  • An open line between sessions for live decisions — used sparingly, answered always
  • Quarterly bearing reviews against the year’s stated moves
  • Renewal is a decision, not a default — re-contracted annually from zero

The Boardroom Brief

Commissioned cohort work, scoped to the brief

CHROs and L&D directors building a senior bench — succession candidates, new ExCo cohorts, post-restructure teams.

  • Scoping session against the organisation’s actual succession map
  • Individual coaching arcs with a shared reporting spine
  • Anonymised cohort themes reported to the sponsor each quarter
  • Procurement-ready proposal, references, and supplier onboarding support

Section 02: How engagements begin

Four steps, none of them a commitment.

The fear in buying coaching is being trapped — in a long contract, or in a polite conversation neither side knows how to end. The process is built against both.

  1. The discovery call

    Thirty minutes. You talk, Helen asks. No deck, no pitch.

  2. The written note

    Within two days: what she heard, and whether coaching is the right instrument. Sometimes the answer is no.

  3. The proposal

    Structure, cadence, and a fixed fee. One page. Take your time with it.

  4. The chemistry session

    A full working session before either side commits. Paid, and credited against the engagement if you proceed.

Section 03: Begin

Begin with a conversation, not a commitment.

Thirty minutes with Helen. No preparation, no deck, no follow-up sequence. You leave with a written note on what she heard and whether — honestly — coaching is the right instrument.
