EXEC COACHING GIVES YOU TIME; TIME TO REFLECT, TO STEP BACK, AND TO TURN YOUR CHALLENGES INTO OPPORTUNITIES.
I refused the Exec Coaching that was offered to me. I was the managing director of a multi-million dollar business – I didn’t need coaching. I was doing fine and who had said I needed help? What was I doing wrong that I needed a coach? And anyway, how could a coach help me? How could somebody who had no idea of my business be any help to me? So I carried on with what I was doing. And the challenges I was facing just got bigger.
I couldn’t see them for the opportunities that they were. Because I was too busy, working all the hours available, never stopping to think. Never stopping to draw breath. To reflect. To take a step back. To think about what those challenges really were. To realise I was facing a wealth of opportunity.
So, I know of what I speak!

PERSONAL PROFILE
RLCOACHING has been established by and is led by me, Roger Lamb.
I am an ILM Level 7 Qualified Executive Coach and Leadership Mentor and a member of Certified Management Consultants (CMC).
I use these skills, within a pragmatic approach based on his many years of commercial and leadership experience in international blue-chip organisations. I help business leaders and managers unlock their true potential, turning challenges into opportunities through building their self-awareness, focussing on their strengths and working together with practical steps in their career and personal development.
I have worked in many different countries and environments, ranging from the earliest emerging markets to the more sophisticated mature markets, managing and leading teams from diverse functional and ethnic backgrounds. This enables me to actively engage with everybody and to help individuals identify their key challenges and seize their opportunities.
In addition to coaching I am involved with several other initiatives. I am a Skills Coach at Manchester Metropolitan University supporting their Senior Leader and MBA programmes; a founding partner in a new photo sharing app; I have continued my commercial consulting projects in a number NED roles; am a Chairman of a secondary school Parent Society; am a Manchester University Alumni Gold Mentor; and I work with Career Ready, a national social mobility charity helping young people kick start their careers.
By really understanding my clients through his active listening, I create a solution focused coaching and mentoring approach.
I am a Member of the Association of Coaching and undertake regular supervised sessions with the British School of Coaching, following the ethics and code of Practise of the British School of Coaching.
