Business Second.* - We’ve all been there. It is late in the afternoon at your desk. You realise that not only have you not eaten, drunk, or moved since the morning, but you’ve also wanted a wee since 9 o'clock. Work has consumed you to the exclusion of all other consumption or expulsion. You've entered a kind of post Maslow world world, where you pretend you can skip the basic steps of the pyramid and still function well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613ca8b408d3120b017143fc/a1bba5e9-dd81-4b38-bcff-be4cb11a809c/Screenshot+2023-03-18+130623+sandwich.png My Words - Body First.

You are more authentic and productive, and end the day feeling happy and fulfilled." https://www.melissacase.co.uk/individuals daily 0.75 2021-12-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613ca8b408d3120b017143fc/894ee0b7-780b-48d2-b8de-17ebba460128/IMG_20180507_201106.jpg Individuals - I offer individual clients Space to develop your authentic, unique offer: be your true self at work, unlock potential, and bring an ease to your leadership. Space to support career progression, manage ‘imposter syndrome’ and work through any limiting beliefs or blind spots that might be holding you back. Space to build your confidence, explore your unique value, build personal resilience and meet new expectations on promotion or leadership position. Space to understand and nuance your impact on others, and mindfully manage the leadership ‘shadow’ you cast. Space to reassess whether you are getting what you want from your career, and life, and support to help you identify changes you need to make, and the concrete steps to take these. Space to plan and reflect on your transition back to work following periods of leave (career break, paternity or maternity leave, sick leave), explore shifting identities or priorities, and new ways of working. https://www.melissacase.co.uk/my-approach daily 0.75 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613ca8b408d3120b017143fc/d83a6443-4a70-425b-88ab-2d4d66d974f1/IMG_20200616_191825.jpg My approach - My Approach I offer a warm and non-judgemental space, in which I work in partnership with clients to enable them to be their most authentic and successful selves. I am supportive, but may offer challenge where it is helpful to identify blockers and shift unhelpful behaviours. I support clients to explore the challenges and opportunities of their working environment, particularly those that arise from the transitions of promotion, a new role or a return to work from a period of leave. I build awareness of clients’ strengths, values, areas of development, the leadership ‘shadow’ they cast and their impact on others. Together, we then identify what might need to shift to help them be happier and more successful, and how best to do this. The coaching process dramatically increases self awareness, builds motivation for change and helps identify and resolve self-limiting beliefs and blind spots that are getting in the way. As a result of working with me, my clients feel more confident in themselves, their impact and their direction, more able to balance their lives and work and, ultimately, are more content. I usually offer 60 minute coaching consultations. These can be online (through a video platform) or in person in Kent/ London. I usually work with clients over a 3 - 6 month period, sometimes longer, at 2 - 4 week intervals. I offer an initial free 30 minute consultation so that you can find out if I’m the right coach for you. https://www.melissacase.co.uk/contact-me daily 0.75 2024-03-25 https://www.melissacase.co.uk/testimonials daily 0.75 2023-12-06 https://www.melissacase.co.uk/organisations daily 0.75 2022-11-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613ca8b408d3120b017143fc/3c606864-091c-45b2-a16d-cd69ee29ff6b/woodland.jpg Organisations - I offer organisations Space to help your leaders, and the leaders of tomorrow, feel more empowered, personally responsible and resilient. Space to build leaders’ self awareness, consolidate strengths and support areas for development. Space to support career and leadership transitions (whether promotion, change of role, parental leave or sick leave) to ensure your people reach their full potential as soon as possible after transition. I offer facilitation for team events and away days. I have recently run sessions on authenticity, leadership at all levels, imposter syndrome and leadership under pressure. Sessions and workshops can be tailored to meet your organisational and team needs. I offer group as well as one to one coaching, which can be a value for money alternative to individual coaching, with the added benefits of building cohorts, particularly of new or emerging leaders, and training those individuals in a coaching approach. Group coaching can also be an effective intervention to increase the effectiveness of existing Action Learning Sets. https://www.melissacase.co.uk/jobshares daily 0.75 2021-12-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613ca8b408d3120b017143fc/41017918-b500-45cb-909b-f107f94ede9f/DSC03170.jpg Jobshares - I offer jobshares Space to deepen and progress your jobshare, while maintaining your unique identities at work.

Space to build a common leadership language, approach and jobshare ‘brand’. Space to support jobshare career progression and navigate transition and promotions successfully together.
