Hello, I’m Lars
I coach and facilitate leaders and teams to create great results, relationships and well-being. I thrive on realising potential in individuals, team and organisations. I work independently and offer highly flexible solutions, collaborating with trusted partners as required.

Team Effectiveness | Leadership | Resilience

Background
Based in Manchester, I have worked commercially as an executive coach and facilitator continually since 2011. I have delivered thousands of hours of individual and team coaching as well as facilitated a wide diversity of learning and decision making groups.

I work across the UK for clients in sectors ranging from Health and Social Care, Digital and Technology, Local Government, Engineering, Financial Services, Criminal Justice to the University sector. My previous organisational leadership experience includes senior roles such as Director of Learning and Research and Associate Director of Talent in the health sector.

Training and Accreditations
I have a BA (Hons) and MPhil in Philosophy and have undertaken a wide range of professional development as an executive coach and facilitator.  This has included foundation training in Gestalt Psychotherapy and accreditation by the British Psychological Society to use the following psychometric tools that give insights into personality traits and preferences; HOGAN, MBTI, OPQ, FIRO-B, 16PF, TKI.

Quality and Ethics
I have regular professional supervision sessions with a highly experienced coach supervisor and occupational psychologist. This is a vital part of maintaining quality and fitness to practice. I am a member of the Association for Coaching and work to the AC’s Code of Ethics.

Teaching and Supervision
Since 2014 I have regularly been commissioned to design and facilitate post-grad/level 7 executive education in relation to management and leadership development. Most recently an MBA Module and an MSc/PG Dip in Medical Leadership. Since 2020 I have also provided supervision to coaches and facilitators.
