We don’t believe there’s a one size fits all approach to coaching. We pride ourselves on creating a bespoke coaching programme that works for the individual.
Better engagement is for everyone
When you develop your leaders, you end up with a happier, more engaged team overall.
Start with strengths
We don’t look for the gaps in someone’s CV; we find out what drives them, and help them use it to create their own style of management.
Coaching is about the career
Not just the role. We work with people to help them understand what they need to do more of (or less of) to grow for the future.
Coaching should be both practical and theoretical
All our coaches are professionally accredited, as well as having on-the-job expertise and management experience.
Coaching programmes to suit your every need

I very much enjoyed my coaching experience with 10Eighty. I found my coach to be both supportive and challenging. I was new to my leadership role, and he was an excellent sounding board as I navigated my way through those trials and tribulations all new leaders experience. He has a wealth of experience that ranges from achieving corporate objectives, managing teams effectively and influencing key stakeholders, that I found very helpful. I can recommend the coaching services of 10Eighty without hesitation.
Guillermo Felices, Head of Research & Strategy, BNP Paribas
Coaching covered many bases for me, it helped confirm what I already knew and gave me confidence with those things. It helped me deal with important business and personal decisions that arose during my coaching. Most important, it provided me with a set of tools and techniques and opened my mind to using them regularly in life and in business. There is not a day goes by that I don't reflect on what I learned during my coaching. It was invaluable and I hope to continue that journey both personally and with my team at some point in the near future.

Andy McLaughlin, MBNA Bank of America
My coach Iain provided a hugely helpful sounding board at a difficult time in my career. He showed real interest in me, what was on my mind and how I could best think through the mind-fog! Taking that time out of my busy week to process my thinking and discuss it with someone impartial was invaluable. A great experience all round - thanks Iain.

My coach Michael has helped me to approach projects, communications and activities very differently over the last 2 years and importantly helped me to develop myself in my new role ensuring that I gained the desired effect. He has helped me to reflect on how I am approaching such activities and of course responding to events. Each time the desired effect has helped to build up my profile and role in Europe, so as time has gone on colleagues are now asking for my help , support or input, something I could only have dreamed about at the start of this journey. The coaching I have had has been invaluable and its worked brilliantly.
