Founder Coaching
For Founders, CEOs & Entrepreneurs who’ve reached a point where more of the same isn’t working.
I work with Founders who are at a point when something needs to change.
You may have noticed certain patterns keep happening no matter how many times you try to change them. The usual move is to push harder, work more, try harder. It's worked before. This time it just adds pressure without adding progress.
What seems to be a problem is in fact an edge - a place where you can’t seem to push through. And going beyond this edge is about going inward.
Simply put, I help Founders think differently, so you can act accordingly and move past the patterns which are keeping you stuck.
“… [Sal] helped me to focus on what truly matters from a business perspective and to identify and address the areas that were holding me back”
~ Steve, CEO & Entrepreneur
“If it were really about more revenue, beating burnout or filling whats missing in your life you’d have solved it by now.”
Let’s take a moment to reflect as we would in session.
I’m curious…
What if the problem isn't quite what it seems?
How long have you been trying to work harder at this? ...and is it helping?
What might you not be able to see from where you're standing?
If nothing else got in the way, what would you want?
“…[Sal] challenged when needed and pushed on those "blocking" thought processes that continuously circle around all our heads”
~ Sam, CEO, Chairman, Investor
Here’s what to do next
1. Clarity Conversation
Let’s start with a informal conversation to understand where you are now, where you want to be, and what is in the way. At this stage, it’s a relaxed way to get to know each other and see how you feel.
A complimentary call is the best way for you to experience me and how I work without commitment. Coaching is something which needs to be directly experienced.
2. Vision & Strategy Session
3. Founder Coaching
FAQ
-
Executive coaching improves what you do — execution, strategy, communication. Founding Self works at the level beneath that: what's actually driving your behaviour. It doesn't replace strategic thinking. It's what makes strategic thinking work.
-
Self-awareness helps you see the pattern. It doesn't give you access to what's driving it — you can't fully see yourself from inside yourself. No-one can. Having a the unconscious made conscious is key to transformation.
-
Regular one-to-one sessions, typically once or twice a month. Any coaching engagement is proceeded by a comprehensive Vision and Strategy session. Having a clear vision objectives creates the guidance for the work. Using the Founding Self framework, we build the strategy and pathway to growth.
We work with what's live for you; decisions, patterns, what's becoming visible and how to integrate the changes.
Over time, understanding turns into real change you carry into daily life and leadership.
-
Typically we work for 12 months. Real shifts often show up sooner, often in the first few sessions but integrating the insights into tangible, sustainable change requires a longer time horizon.

“…The results we're getting are a direct reflection of who we're being. Change who you're being to align with what you're trying to achieve and — bang — exponential shift”
Tom, Co-Founder.
“…He has also helped me improve my ability to learn through self reflection, gain a much better understanding of my strategic thinking process needs, become more agile and confident in conflict situations, and dedicate more focus to the things that have the biggest business impact.”
Steve, CEO & Entrepreneur.
“…Sal helped me to focus on what truly matters from a business perspective and to identify and address the areas that were holding me back —not just in terms of market forces or skills, but often the underlying mindset or behaviours which I didn’t always see were there.
