About

You’ve built a solid career. On paper, everything looks fine. But you’ve outgrown the path you’re on. What got you here isn’t what will take you forward. Thinking harder about it doesn’t seem to help. I work with mid-career professionals who want to step back and think things through properly. My approach is simple. I use writing as a thinking tool within my coaching. It helps you slow things down, get clear, and work out what comes next. I’ve built a framework around this called the WRITE model. It helps you understand who you are, explore what’s possible, and decide what to do next. My background is in engineering and leadership. I’m a Chartered Engineer, an accredited career coach and Master NLP Practitioner. I also host the Mid-Career Change podcast. The people I work with are capable and experienced. They know something needs to change, but want to think it through properly before making a move. If you’re at that point, the podcast or one of the books is a good place to start. If you want to work things through with some support, we can talk. 🌎 www.bravocoaching.co.uk
