Executive Coaching to get the best out of your leaders

Julia Macmillan of Learning Quest prepares an organisational development session

Executive Coaching is about getting the very best out of senior leaders in any organisation and is a powerful, focused effective development tool. You might be working on attaining an individual career goal; needing specific help with a development goal or success with a team project. The LQ will help support you in achieving your ambitions through targeted and skilled conversations.

With our business and executive coaching service we work with individuals as well as companies to develop talent, reach goals and drive performance. We help you thrive rather than survive at work, helping support your mental wellbeing and develop resilience to reach your full potential.

We work on a one to one basis to assist you to find your own solutions. We will help you move out of your comfort zone and address any underlying areas that hinder your success in a non - threatening way.

We will give you personalised high level support empowering you to make the changes you need to be even more successful. Past successes include helping senior executives overcome limiting beliefs about themselves; increase confidence and how to be more assertive and minimise nerves when giving presentations.

“I highly recommend Julia as a coach for whoever wants to grow in his career. Julia has undoubtedly the skills and wide experience for executives coaching. I truly hope our paths will cross again.”

General Manager Sodexo – Kuwait

“I cannot recommend Julia Macmillan highly enough she is an excellent coach and group facilitator. I have grown professionally utilising the learning and reflective practice. Julia allows colleagues to reflect and implement learning both professionally and personally.”

Head of Operations Livewest

“Julia has been the true professional, guiding our workshops and personal coaching to positive conclusions. Julia follows up after the event to complete an excellent end-to-end service.”

Principal Consultant SOCITM

“Julia has run a number of workshops, staff engagement sessions and produced resource materials. The workshops and engagement sessions were informative, engaging and fun; and always received rave reviews from participants. Julia’s expertise combined with her natural, personable style has enabled groups to feel comfortable and to truly reflect on their experiences with the right level of support and challenge. Julia has supported us during a period of transformation by being a gentle catalyst for change.”

Deputy Operations Director NIHR

“I have just been appointed Strategic Director. I want you to know that much of the confidence and ability that I have is down to the work that I did with you. So I thank you for that.”

Strategic Director of a Local Authority

“In order to meet new challenges and plan for growth it meant the introduction of change to all employees. Without their “buy in” our future growth plans would be harder to achieve in the timescales allotted. It is also fair to say staff in general are change adverse and my staff were no exception. Julia is a consummate professional. Her preparation and delivery were frankly outstanding. By the end of the session the staff had completely gone through 180º. This exceeded my best expectations. As a consequence, I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Julia and The Learning Quest.”

Managing Director IDS Media

“Recently I attended a Mentor Skills Development Workshop where the content, the materials and the facilitation was done by Julia. Julia’s expressive style, her enthusiasm and her rich experience made the content relevant and the workshop was professional, high value against the time commitment and fun. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Julia and The Learning Quest.”
