Transform potential into measurable impact

We blend psychological expertise, commercial insight and systems thinking and coach leaders at key junctures in their careers.

Make space to lead well

Leaders today face complexity that demands more than experience alone. Coaching provides a confidential, high-trust space to think clearly, shift behaviour and lead with greater impact.

We coach leaders to:

Expand self-awareness and sharpen judgement
Strengthen presence, influence and decision-making
Navigate complexity and relationships confidently
Lead with purpose and communicate effectively
Disrupt unhelpful patterns and create new choices
Build resilience and sustained performance

Our coaching framework

1 Match the right coach

We connect leaders with a coach whose expertise and style align with their goals and context.
2 Build insight

We combine organisational context, stakeholder input, and behavioural data, with optional interviews and AI-enabled analysis.
3 Coaching with clear goals

Every coaching partnership is anchored in business priorities, combining reflection, experimentation, and practical tools with immediate application.
4 Measure impact

We conclude with a focused review of progress, behavioural shifts and business impact.

Real stories. Real impact.

She really got me to think differently, challenge me, take me out of my comfort zone whilst being supportive and thought provoking throughout. The coaching experience has provided me with tools and techniques to handle situations. I have increased my confidence and resilience throughout the process.
Elaine Bartlett Director of HR Operations, Maximus
I feel so grateful to have had Clare’s support through a number of transitions in role - including the firsts of becoming a mother, and later a Co-CEO. I always come away feeling more clear, and with a new perspective or framework to take away and work with between sessions. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Miriam Turner Co-Executive Director, Friends of the Earth
I have benefited personally and professionally from our work together. I know and understand myself better, I also have a sense of confidence and clarity about what I want to do next. This would not be the case without your creativity, support and challenge to me – all done in a circle of trust and fun which we established so fast.

I've chosen to work with WDI when I was at Skype, Microsoft and now WorldRemit because they have invested the time to understand me, my business issues and the particular challenges of leading a complex, fast paced, constantly evolving technology business. I have seen the benefits at many levels – for me, my team and the business.
Gabriella Poczo Chief Technology Officer, WorldRemit
I've achieved all of my coaching goals and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The coaching was so impactful I've recommended WDI to several colleagues.
Paul Lawrenson Global Talent Acquisition, People & Culture, Ørsted
WDI have been a valuable partner for me as I led a team managing significant change, development, and growth. Through their coaching partnership, I developed the insights and capabilities needed to effectively respond at pace to the intersecting people and technology changes we've led.
