Michelle Spirit

With over 20 years’ experience in HR, mental health nursing and coaching, I have been able to work with organisations throughout the UK, USA, Canada, South Africa and Jersey, providing executive coaching, learning solutions and speaking services to help leaders develop their potential during times of change and transition, also supporting those in high stress roles and those who simply want an objective sounding board to help them get better results. This includes FTSE 250 companies, global organisations, national charities and Universities including the University of Oxford.

Learning solutions developed are based on a deep understanding of psychology, people development, emotional and social intelligence, neuroscience and behavioural models including Insights Discovery, MTQ48, 16PF, Myers Briggs and the Big 5 personality traits.

Coaching and learning and development programmes facilitated recently include:

1. Building trust and team cohesion
2. Results through relationships
3. Emotional and Social Intelligence
4. Building Resilience for Managers
5. Building Resilience for Teams
6. Team Assessment and Action Planning
7. Recognising and Managing Burnout
8. Change and the Human Impact
9. Leadership 360 Feedback
10. Mental Health for Managers
11. Mental Health Awareness
12. Managers Managing Stress
13. Building a Growth Mindset culture
14. Ensuring Psychological Safety
     

Coaching is of course not therapy, but with between 25% to 50% of those seeking coaching experiencing clinically significant levels of anxiety, stress or depression, it is useful to have someone able to recognise mental health issues and that complaints related to time management, interpersonal communication and workplace disengagement might not be as straight forward as they may at first seem.

My north star is to help people feel safe, engaged, understood and productive at work. Only by achieving this can organisations succeed in building a fulfilled and energised workforce.
