Coaching Leadership Academy

Where leaders learn to coach

Join the Coaching Leadership Academy
The Coaching Leadership Academy is grounded in a constraints-leveraged coaching approach that blends the art and science of coaching. We design leadership environments that spark curiosity, build trust, and unlock performance under pressure. When leaders learn how to coach, the results speak for themselves:
✓ Stronger energy, trust, and collaboration
✓ Increased engagement and retention
✓ Clearer communication and confident leaders
✓ Performance under pressure as a strength – not a threat
If you’re ready to elevate performance, build trust, and transform how you lead, the Coaching Leadership Academy will show you how to coach with purpose, presence, and impact.
No one likes to admit their leaders can't inspire their teams. Often, it's not their fault. The lack of training and this engagement gap quietly undermine success.
Communication and collaboration issues are often overlooked. These silent struggles weaken team cohesion.
High stress and burnout silently drain performance. Addressing these issues is crucial for talent to thrive.

✓ 3–4 half or full-day workshops

Leader as Coach - is the way of NOW!
Coach Training
Our Coach Training is tailored to reflect your organization's values, culture, and leadership goals. We equip managers and leaders with practical coaching skills that strengthen communication, increase productivity, improve talent retention, and accelerate individual and team growth. Using the Coaching Leadership Academy's proven coaching approach, leaders learn how to coach – not just manage – creating greater accountability, curiosity, trust, and sustainable high performance. Coach EM's Amazon Best Selling book, What Makes a Great Coach?, reinforces the principles and practical tools that underpin this work.
Team Building
Our Team Building experiences are high-energy, practical, and designed around your organization's values, culture, and business objectives. From our signature Pickleball Playbook experiences to our Learn Through Play boardroom activities, we create engaging environments that strengthen trust, improve communication, and build collaboration. Through purposeful challenges, coaching conversations, and guided reflection, teams develop stronger relationships, greater accountability, and the confidence to perform together under pressure long after the event ends.
Coaching 1 on 1
Our Performance Coaching is tailored to your individual goals, leadership challenges, and growth journey. We partner with leaders to strengthen self-awareness, elevate communication, and develop the mindset and behaviours needed to perform under pressure. Through practical coaching conversations, you'll build confidence, improve decision-making, harness your energy, and create sustainable habits that accelerate personal growth, leadership impact, and long-term success.

Managers and leaders struggling to fulfill their potential breaks my heart.
As someone who has represented Australia as a world team coach on 20 occasions, I understand what it takes to be successful in the world of high performance and bring out the best in others. I have faced personal and professional challenges, overcome impostor syndrome, and even presented at a conference alongside the Pope in front of 5,000 coaches. I feel like I am just an ordinary person living an extraordinary life because of being a coach. This is one of the greatest gifts on the planet, which I never take for granted. The leader as coach is the way of now, and companies who adopt this way of managing and leading will continue to harness talent and unleash their true potential.
