Career and Executive Coaching
Coaching for ambitious professionals who refuse to stand still.
Welcome to Maureen Adams Coaching
Are you looking to catapult your performance and career to the next level?
Then start here. I am a leadership, executive, and career coach and I work with mid-level and senior managers seeking promotion to help them advance their careers.
Increasingly, managers in product or service industries dealing with changing technology, people and processes. They want to navigate their place in a complex business world.
If you want to get promoted, change careers, or develop more confidence in your current role, then personal coaching is a great way to achieve these goals. Not only will your career develop, but you will also grow both personally and professionally.
I work at the interface between business, mindsets, leadership, and psychology to reach beyond the desire to build your career into what approaches and strategies will take you there. Importantly, I coach people through what can be demanding interview processes.
As a Career and Executive Coach, I will help you develop the skills and knowledge you need to advance your career and expand your options.
My coaching services, tools, and techniques will help you develop emotional intelligence, communication skills and self-awareness, preparing you for your next role or enhancing your success in your current one.
A strengths assessment will provide insight into your natural effectiveness and help you understand your preferences. New leaders will receive support to excel in their roles. And, established leaders will refine their leadership style and find ways to be even more effective in meeting current organisational challenges.
We will review your ambitions, examine what's holding you back, and, through an online assessment, explore how to leverage your natural talents.
''At the end of the programme, I was delighted to achieve a significant internal promotion into the C-Suite that had seemed out of reach. Coaching brought out my capabilities, and I began believing in myself.'' CL, Programme Leader
As an ICF-qualified coach, I offer a range of services that can be tailored to your specific needs. I don't follow a standard process; we work together to optimise your situation through results-based coaching. Whether your career or life choices are causing you stress and worry, or you feel blocked in your career, we will help you transform your thinking and actions to achieve the results you need.
If you're not developing your own plans, the chances are that you feature in someone else's.

Unlock Your Future with Maureen Adams Executive Coach
I provide tailored coaching sessions designed to meet your specific career goals. Whether you're seeking a new job, looking for promotion opportunities, or considering a career change, my approach ensures that you receive the guidance and support needed to navigate your career effectively. Let's work together to unlock your potential.
We build on your strengths and define your potential.
We will begin by leveraging your current successes and innate abilities. You will gain tools for lasting, meaningful change and see the results. Once we establish a trust-based coaching partnership, you will be in the driver's seat on what matters most. Together, we will move you forward with a Strengths Profile.
- Are you ready to take the leap toward sustainable success?
- Can you commit to weekly, fortnightly, or monthly time slots to invest in your future?
As an ICF-qualified coach and experienced director, I bring academic learning and real-world experience to the coaching space. We start with where you are, and through careful questioning, we identify the future you are looking to secure.
Schedule a free initial career coaching consultation to discuss your goals and chart your path towards your full potential.
Sessions last 3 - 6 months, depending upon the frequency of sessions chosen. Fortnightly suits most people initially, or weekly if a significant event or interview is scheduled. Monthly suits people in roles seeking more profound, more impactful executive coaching. After that, it's up to you. I don't upsell; people stay with me beyond their initial programme as a coach because they see the value.
How I can help
Build your career
It's easy to get caught up in the complexities of a role, causing your career path to become blurred or even overlooked entirely. I help you regain your focus to optimise your performance and career path with a programme of 4, 6, or 8 sessions.
And let's be honest, it's competitive and time-consuming, often with little feedback,
I help people position themselves for their future career aspirations and work with them on their mindset, using insight and self-awareness. I help them tap into their motivation and manage any self-doubt. It's not about creating 'toxic' positivity but about giving you a confidential and safe space to talk about your situation and future without judgment, and with empathy as the coach in your corner.
Confidentiality is guaranteed.
What I don't do:
x Record your calls - unless you want me to
x Tie you into a year-long programme
x Put you into a group programme
x Pass you on to someone else- you always get me.
x 'Heavy' selling or 'upselling '- I don't need to!
Job Search and Interview Strategy
What does it take to succeed at executive-level interviews?
Senior-level interviews are often time-consuming and intense, and feedback can be limited, leaving you unclear and disillusioned.
Out of the most recent 10 clients who completed this form of coaching, all progressed to the final stages, with 60% being successfully appointed in highly competitive interviews
Discover how to navigate the job market, including crafting a compelling resume and cover letter, identifying opportunities, and establishing professional connections.
Don't let an opportunity slip by without giving it your best possible performance.
It's much too important to leave to luck on the day with some last-minute preparation. This is your chance to shine and succeed.
Whether you're held back by nervousness, imposter syndrome, fear of failure, or a lack of recent interview experience, I can help you regain your confidence. I offer mock interview coaching and a structured approach to preparing and feeling confident. I offer 1 to 4 sessions, depending on the role and your timescales.
In the words of my client:
'What worked for me was that I articulated my answers for the questions I might be asked more clearly, unpacking them to show greater insight.'
