Key Coaches
Emma Spitz
Emma is particularly interested in working with individuals during transition points in their careers - either to a more senior role, working within a new organisation or through periods of significant change. She enjoys working with high potential individuals and managers to enable them to realise their potential and their aspirations. Emma has a highly empathic and intuitive approach to coaching which provides her with insights into her clients which allows her to challenge them in a fearless and demanding yet encouraging and supportive way.
"Clients describe me as being open and challenging within a highly supportive and constructive framework. I bring objectivity and structure to a client's personal and professional development goals, as well as thought-provoking insights."
Coaching style
Each coaching programme is tailored to her individual client's needs, where they will examine their strengths, development areas, coaching and business objectives using a structured framework which allows them to develop relevant and achievable action plans leading to significant results. Emma combines perceptiveness with a strong pragmatic and business focus to ensure that her clients focus on action and achieving results.
Maternity Coaching
As a natural development of her interest in transition and development coaching, Emma successfully created and launched Maternity Coaching in 2005. Through her professional experience as a Partner of the Executive Coaching Consultancy at ECC and personal experience (Emma has three small children) Emma recognised the need for bespoke coaching for working mothers. She subsequently designed and developed a coaching programme to support women before, during and after their maternity leave. She is a passionate advocate for supporting individuals during this period of transition and of the benefits that coaching can bring to both the individual and their organisation. As the first UK consultancy to offer tailored maternity coaching programmes, Emma continues to successfully lead and develop this growing area of executive coaching and ECC now lead the market as providers of maternity coaching programmes.
