About Mary Fenwick Coaching

Business coaching for organisations which want to retain their valuable, senior women as leaders. It might not be obvious from the outside, but women in leadership positions are under great pressure. Research by McKinsey and the Lean In foundation in November 2020 found that 1 in 4 women are contemplating what many would have considered unthinkable less than a year ago: downshifting their careers or leaving the workforce. This comes at a time when organisations are becoming more aware of the criticial need for diverse perspectives in decision making. I'm not going to persuade you of the benefits, but perhaps you might like to look up the work by McKinsey, the Financial Times, and the Said School of Business at Oxford to name a few. You might be looking at me because you already know the benefits of coaching in your organisation, you have someone in mind who needs support, and you're looking for the best fit. The type of roles I work with include: charity chief exec; global marketing director; senior sales; director of innovation; senior academic; and members of parliament in the UK and elsewhere. The benefits of working with me include: greater confidence; more clarity in articulating a vision; and new skills in handling interpersonal conflict and stress in the team. My clients are left with a toolkit of resources which they know are not only based on the latest research, but which work for them. They approach new challenges with more energy, and the ability to regroup more quickly in the face of setbacks. For the organisation it means more productive teams, better engagement and loyalty; and leaders who step more easily into roles beyond those that they originally envisaged. With new clients, I usually arrange a discovery call, where I can answer any questions, give them a taster of my coaching style, and we make a joint decision about whether we want to work together.
