Introduction

As executives, in leadership positions in a FTSE Top 5 organisation, we learned to navigate complex political landscapes, successfully manage large and complex teams, work with and understand the mindsets of colleagues at every level across the organisation from many

different cultures and to become familiar with the decision-making processes of CEOs and Board members.

But most importantly, we have gained a firm understanding of the resilience, determination and focus needed to succeed in highly pressurised workplaces and therefore exactly what it takes to reach your, and your organisation’s, goals.

We have learned how to overcome challenges, foster resilience and to thrive instead of merely survive, in often challenging environments.

We have both experienced the positive impact professional coaching has had in transforming our personal and professional lives as well as the difference it has made to the performance of our teams and the individuals within them.

Now, as professional accredited coaches ourselves, we feel our career and personal experience - combined with our approachability, personal integrity and passion for developing others - make us the ideal partners to enable, empower and encourage you every step of the way on your journey to reach your personal or professional goals.

Meet Kate:

After 20 years working in London in political media relations and corporate communications, including holding the role of Global Head of Communications for one of the world’s largest multinational organisations, Kate decided to pursue a new challenge and retrain as a professional coach. 

She is an International Coaching Federation accredited coach – specialising in leadership and professional development and working with individuals, senior leaders and their wider teams.

This combines her natural instinct to help, support and motivate people with her decades of experience in problem solving, managing large teams and engaging and motivating employees – particularly during periods of change.

At La Meta Coaching, Kate is inspired on a daily basis through seeing the difference coaching makes to her clients’ mindsets and the impact this has on their personal and professional lives.

Kate is based in Winchester and is available for client sessions via videocall or face-to-face in Winchester, London and the surrounding areas.

Meet Justine:

Justine has over two decades of professional experience, including operating at executive level within one of the world´s leading FMCG companies. She has a Science PhD and gained broad business and leadership experience through senior global roles in R&D, Corporate & Regulatory Affairs and Marketing.

She became a passionate advocate of the empowering nature of coaching - through using professional coaches both personally and for team members - to fulfil potential, overcome self-limiting beliefs or to turn around underperformance. This inspired her move into coaching in 2016, qualifying as an International Coaching Federation Associate Certified Coach.

Today as a coach, Justine combines her corporate leadership experience with her natural warmth, calm perspective and passion for developing and motivating others. This has allowed her to successfully relate to, connect with and support a wide range of clients - within corporate, government, charity and SME sectors - to identify and achieve the goals they have set themselves.

Justine splits her time between Mallorca and the UK and is available for client sessions via videocall or face-to-face.
