Your Best Work: pathways to a personally meaningful career, enduring performance and flourishing at work.
This strengths-based program presents a rare opportunity to work with people in a way that enhances their sense of identity, worth and purpose, while improving their wellbeing and performance.
Why is this program valuable to organisations?
This program helps to address a range of common executive coaching goals, such as people leadership, the ability to achieve full potential, career transition and development, coping with change (e.g. restructures) and building resilience to manage stress and burnout.
Doing their best work in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) environments requires people showing up to work with a sense of meaning and purpose, being able to do what they do best every day and having robust levels of wellbeing. These employees have high motivation and commitment to their goals, leading to sustained high levels of performance. The positive impact for individuals has a ripple effect for teams and the entire organisation.
There is a strong and established business case for investment in enabling employees to do their best work through discovering and harnessing their motivations and energising strengths. People who use their strengths more:
are many times-fold more engaged in their work
are significantly more productive
have more self-belief and confidence
have more positive energy and buzz
improve and learn faster when focusing on using strengths, compared to “fixing” weaknesses
feel happier, less stressed and more resilient
are less of a flight risk, hence more likely to be retained within the organisation.
Doing their best work also involves establishing wellbeing practices that guard against burnout and enable flourishing throughout their careers.
“Focusing on strengths presents a rare opportunity to work with people in a way that enhances their sense of identity and personal worth, while improving their wellbeing and their performance”

Client Feedback
“I knew when I started the coaching process I was a jumble of thoughts and just needed help to sort and prioritise them. Debra did a fantastic job of assisting me in this process and really delivered what was ‘pitched’ during our initial calls. Debra was open, warm, direct and patient. She walked the line of listening and providing guidance very well. I appreciated her positive psychology methodology and insights and felt supported and safe throughout.”
“My coaching sessions with Kate allowed me to gain clarity about how I wanted my future to look and to confidently set goals that align well with my core values. I found it really valuable to have someone challenge my thinking and my approach to problem solving, helping me to be accountable and continue to progress. I appreciated Kate’s encouragement and insight based on the sound principles of positive psychology and I now feel more energised and confident that I will achieve my goals.”
“I have a new job and am in a much better position in my career thanks to the skilful and supportive way in which Kate offers encouragement to help you set and achieve your goals. Kate has been instrumental in providing me with practical strategies that I implement on a daily basis to bring my best self to work. She has taken great care to understand my unique strengths and helped me find an approach that complements my natural skills and abilities. Kate genuinely cares about her clients and wants to see them thrive.”
“This process has given me the confidence to identify and use my strengths to draw positive energy from them. Debra helped me identify goals and progress towards achieving them. She was easy to connect with, she identified where I could use some guidance and armed me with the tools to move forward in life with confidence in myself.”
