For groups and teams
I learned early in my career that, unless all members of a team are on the same page, progress can be painfully slow, and change may not last. Team coaching provides an opportunity to bring people together, clarify the vision, correct any misunderstandings, work towards a better understanding of performance objectives, and generally improve morale.
During my years working as a freelance consultant and trainer, I had many opportunities to develop my skills as an independent facilitator, taking on diverse commissions for team building, action learning, and strategic away-days, skills which were to serve me well in later years as a senior manager; chairing operational meetings, facilitating consultations, mediating complaints, and driving through necessary change.

I also have many years’ experience designing and delivering bespoke, educational workshops. As a nurse, these were mainly related to aspects of clinical practice such as; mental health awareness, communication, risk assessment, etc. Now, as an experienced coach, working with clients across a wide range of industries, I have created an extensive portfolio of interactive workshops specifically for managers and entrepreneurs who want to develop their leadership and business skills, but who neither need, nor want, the commitment of regular coaching or more formal academic studies. Quirky, and unique in style, the content of these workshops reflects the most commonly encountered topics during my years of coaching practice, including modules on; goal setting, performance enhancement, decision making, risk assessment, emotional intelligence, values based leadership, marketing, business planning, and mindset. there are four collections to choose from; the History collection, the Equine collection, the Success collection, the Christmas collection.
All events have coaching principles at their heart
with a primary focus on self-discovery and learning from each other. Filtered
through the lens of history, the natural world, and anecdotal experience,
each event offers a unique framework for thinking through leadership,
business, and team challenges. Available as online networking events for leaders and small business owners, or as bespoke team events suitable for corporate awaydays, leadership development, and team building. Corporate events can be delivered online, on site, or at a venue of your choice. For more information please visit my companion website www.karencarpenterevents.com
