...of a Senior Leader

Welcome to theMakings Senior Leader programme

theMakings brings 1:1 coaching to SSP Senior Leaders to accelerate leadership development and drive business performance.

theMakings 23 minute sessions take the best bits from the traditional coaching model to deliver an optimised intervention. Weekly sessions over six months provide intensive support that enables sustained high performance in high pressure environments.

Coaching makes a huge difference, it gives you an opportunity to stop and focus on the areas that you need help with and what will set you up for future success. I have found working with theMakings a very positive experience and would definitely recommend working with them.

Working with a curated team of top executive coaches

We identify the perfect team of coaches for your executive team to choose from. All of our coaches are PCC qualified and above and have corporate experience at the same level or higher than the executive they are coaching.

  • 90% increased ability to coach and support their team.

  • 90% increased clarity on their leadership strengths.

  • 75% more focused

  • 75% better equipped to manage stress

  • 84% contributing more meaningfully

I couldn’t have won an Olympic Silver Medal without a coach supporting me every step of the way. I came from sport into the corporate world and executives were seeing their coach once a month, maybe twice if they were lucky. To move performance forward high performers need high frequency support structures to challenge, encourage and hold to account.
