Coaching
We are often thrown into leadership roles without any formal training and trying to learn these skills on the job can be detrimental to you and your team. Leadership coaching can help you draw out your own natural leadership style and provide you with the skills and tools to get the best out of yourself and your team.
Performance
Many people get stuck working at a particular pace or develop particular habits that don’t highlight their true capabilities. Performance coaching can help you break down the barriers that might be holding you back from achieving more and provide you with the tools to take your performance to the next level.
Life
Sometimes in life we come up against adversity that we find hard to get past by ourselves. This often leads to lethargy, anxiety, and even depression. Coaching can help you set a new direction for yourself and help put behind you whatever it is that is preventing you from living the full and rewarding life that you deserve.
Cillín’s coaching has had the most profound impact on my career and me as a person. He’s helped me self introspect at a much deeper level and challenge a lot of beliefs that went unchallenged and were holding me back.
Hady Osman, Director of Engineering (Xero)
2019 has been a big year for me development wise, I have had to step into a leadership position during a significant realignment was underway. This was incredibly testing with people facing uncertainty and for me to step up and shoulder new responsibilities with limited guidance was a challenge. Cillín was not only able to listen and give effective guidance and feedback he gave me a set of tools in which I was able to deliver my teams priorities and also keep morale motivated. I am a huge supporter of coaching within sport and the business world and Cillín is the best I have come across to date.
Paul Carlson, Senior Change Manager (MBIE)
My coaching experience with Cillín was one out of the box and one I’ll never forget. As a person with a reasonable amount of leadership experience already – I wondered what it would be like having coaching with Cillín and what he might be able to help me with.
I knew he would be good as he came recommended to me by a very close colleague but, regardless, I was still utterly impressed from day one. Cillín has an amazing ability to put you at ease. He has an easy going and genuine personality and subsequently allowed me to feel vulnerable and safe in uncovering my strengths but also the things that may be holding me back – some that I was aware of, some that required a little more uncovering.
His style is calmly unique and peaceful and I commented a couple of times to Cillín that after our sessions, I would almost float down Lambton Quay back to work with a clear but relaxed view of myself and what I could achieve.
I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Cillín – and have in fact already! The sessions I have had recently have changed my view of myself and what I contribute to work forever. I am now in the exciting position of starting a new job and cannot wait to exercise my new levels of self-awareness and skills further. I sincerely hope I will be able to spend some time with him again in the future.

Our Process
The majority of our clients come to us through referrals so if we haven’t met before it’s a good idea to meet up informally over a coffee to discuss your needs and to ensure that we’re the right coaching match for you.
Having a clear goal and understanding what success looks like is an important part of the coaching process. Here we deep dive into what you’d like to achieve during our time together.
Don’t worry though, if you’re not sure how to articulate what you’re after we can help you gain clarity around that too.
This is were we start to make measurable progress as we move toward achieving your goals! We work through each of your objectives and, when necessary, go a little deeper to uncover the drivers that might be preventing you from achieving what it is you’d like to achieve.
To ensure you get the maximum value out of your investment we like to give assignments that will further advance our coaching conversations. These rarely take up too much time and largely fit into and around your daily routines.
Our goal is to serve you in every way possible; therefore, during our time together we like to check in from time to time to ensure we’re on the right track and you’re getting everything you need.
Once you have achieved your goals we wrap up our coaching meetings. We always like to check in over a coffee or a phone call a few weeks after we’ve finished just to make sure things are continuing to go well for you.
Results Coaching exists for one purpose, to help you and your team achieve your goals and get the results you strive for. Unleash your potential and live your life to the max.
