Results Based Leadership and Executive Coaching for Teams and Individuals

BRING OUT A  LEADERSHIP FOCUS

Leadership often isn't the issue - capacity is.

In service businesses, even strong managers can end up firefighting. As pressure rises, productivity drops, tensions increase and your best people disengage or leave.

We help your leaders shift from reactive problem-solving to coaching-led leadership, building trust, productivity and long-term staff retention.

We call it micro-scaling — unlocking capacity and adaptability by testing small moves that reduce overwhelm and spark momentum.

WHY IT MATTERS - THE HIDDEN COST OF FIREFIGHTING

  • Retention Risk: Replacing one key team member costs up to 150% of their salary in disruption and lost expertise.

  • Burnout Drain: Burnout shows up first as conflict, disengagement and "silent quitting" — long before people actually leave.

  • Leadership Pressure: Most managers were promoted for their competence, not their coaching skills, yet they need to lead people through change 

The leadership challenges that got you here won't get you there. In a dynamic environment, whether you're navigating team targets, preparing for change or building a culture that actually drives results, we provide the personalised coaching that turns leadership obstacles into competitive advantages.

Every successful organisation faces the same paradox: the achievements that brought success often create new leadership complexities.

Your talented managers find themselves navigating new and emerging issues.

Your teams, once perfectly aligned, now need fresh approaches to collaboration. Your proven processes need revisiting.

The question isn't whether change is needed—it's how to create it without losing what's already working. 

At Cumulus Coaching, we understand that leadership development can't happen in isolation from your business reality. That's why our approach integrates seamlessly with your existing workflows, creating growth opportunities that enhance, rather than interrupt, your operations.

Coaching that fits the reality of your business/SME.

We don’t deliver generic leadership training. We co-create practical, hands-on coaching partnerships that help managers:

  • Move from firefighting to confident, calm leadership

  • Build emotionally intelligent communication habits

  • Create psychological safety so teams speak up early

  • Embed coaching behaviours that scale with the business

We work with leaders across a range of private and public sectors who have discovered that the right coaching partnership builds the leadership capacity that sustains long-term success.

Your people already have incredible potential. Our role is to unlock it.

Through highly personalised coaching that respects your time constraints and business priorities, we help your existing and emerging leaders develop the skills, self-awareness, and collaborative approaches that transform individual capability into collective strength.

Energised and empowered employees become passionate brand ambassadors. Group work doesn't need to be arduous; it can be a chance to relax, share ideas, and even have some fun.

Our coaching is designed to work alongside your business, providing the support you need without tying your people up in meetings. We work alongside you and your business workflow.

Get in touch to explore how we can support your managers, leaders, and teams in effectively managing change now and in the future.

What Clients Say

  • Sarah
    Marketing Director, Southeast England
    "I started a new Director level role and recognised that I needed to really step into the leadership function with greater confidence from the outset. We discussed my approach to leadership, and vision, and most importantly for me, connecting to my strong values-driven approach. I found that coaching provided really powerful insights and I now have an energy and dynamism that means I step out in front. It has been so exciting to recognise my own personal transformation. I would say to anyone considering coaching, don’t hesitate, it will accelerate your success."
  • Carol
    Director, Not-For-Profit Organisation, London
    ''I had full trust in the confidentiality of the sessions. We worked with where I have confidence. Having a coach who understood not only my work environment but the level was so good. I was able to reflect on what had been discussed, try to put things in place and push myself further from this with the confidence that I had gained in the session. Great balance with just the right 'push' for me.''
  • Carolyn
    Charity Director, UK
    "Coaching helped me to both consider areas for improvement and learning in my current role and gently challenged me to think about what next. I appreciated the safe space to explore some knotty issues. The additional reading materials have also been a great help. Coaching has helped to build my confidence that I have solutions and am working well, and I now have some very practical plans to develop. I learned a lot about coaching (and what it isn’t) that I can use with my team."
  • Katharina
    Project Manager, Europe
    "The biggest gain from my sessions has been the reassurance to trust myself and my instincts. The thoughtfully applied coaching techniques have allowed me to not only reach a clear assessment of options during a turning point in my career but, more importantly, to genuinely align my personal and professional objectives with a productive course of action."
  • Hans
    Chief Operating Officer, Germany
    “What truly impressed me about Maureen was her unwavering positivity. Her energy and encouragement motivated me to keep pushing forward, even when the process felt overwhelming. She has an incredible ability to understand situations quickly, even with minimal context, and her recommendations were always thoughtful and effective. When I was stressed about making a critical job choice, Maureen went above and beyond by being available outside our scheduled appointments. This level of dedication and support made all the difference. Maureen continued to provide valuable guidance during my first 100 days in my new role, ensuring I started strong and stayed on track.”
  • Will
    Project Manager, UK
    "When thinking about how much time I spend in-work, the value of having executive coaching at this critical point in my career is not something I could overstate. I would highly recommend career coaching, especially with Maureen, for whoever is going through a career transition."
