Leadership can be lonely, but it doesn't have to be.

​Leadership can feel isolating, especially in a world that’s constantly changing. For leaders who care about people and the planet, staying calm and centred amidst change requires new skills.

With experience as a CEO, Director, and Chair of Board—and a career spanning government, NGOs, universities, businesses, and the United Nations—I understand the challenges you face.

As your coach, I’ll stand by you, offering guidance and belief when you need it most. Together, we’ll turn challenges into opportunities and navigate change with confidence.

Leadership doesn’t have to be lonely. Iain Patton Coaching and Mediation works globally, so get in touch, and let’s unlock your potential to lead with purpose and impact.

Empowering Leadership Through Clarity and Balance – CEO, African Youth NGO

 

Marot entered coaching with ambitious goals but felt weighed down by burnout and a lack of direction. His challenges spanned work-life balance, managing donor relationships, and addressing systemic issues in refugee settlements. With coaching support, Marot restructured his team, established time for reflection, and balanced his passion for community change with strategic leadership.

A New Era of Leadership

Leadership, and leading change in particular, is incredibly challenging and urgent work. Even the most capable leaders grow weary at times when giving it their all day in and day out.

Coaching will help you manage stress, achieve a work life balance, and overcome imposter syndrome.The urgency of addressing environmental, social, and economic issues demands a new kind of leader who can guide organisations toward a more sustainable future and a proactive strategy for long-term viability and competitive advantage. 

As your coach, I will work alongside you in this ambitious pursuit. Together, we will work towards a fulfilled life, a successful organisation, a safer climate and recovering nature. I believe in you and have your back.

Even when asking the tough questions, I feel like Iain is truly on my side, and believes I can succeed.
