Do you need a sounding board, a challenge or just someone who can help you see the situation differently?
Whether it's change, uncertainty, pressure, difficult decisions, confidence, resilience, or the inevitable moments when work and life don't quite go according to plan, Sally is available to work with individuals and teams to navigate the messy stuff.
Her approach is practical, honest and human. She doesn't have a magic formula, and she won't tell you to simply "think positive". Instead, she'll help you understand what's really going on, challenge the assumptions that might be holding you back and work out what you want to do next.
One-to-one coaching gives you dedicated space to think, talk and work through whatever is on your mind. You might be dealing with a significant change, feeling stuck, recovering from a difficult experience or simply know that something needs to shift.
Sally works with people navigating:
-
Resilience and confidence
-
Stress, pressure and burnout
-
Change, transition and uncertainty
-
Leadership and difficult decisions
-
Wellbeing and work-life balance
-
Career and life crossroads
-
Recovery from challenging workplace experiences
Coaching can take place online or in person, including walking sessions where that's practical. Sessions are usually 90 minutes, but she'll work with you to find an approach that fits.
Every new coaching relationship starts with a chemistry session. It's a chance to meet, talk about what you need and decide whether she's the right person to help.
Sally designs and deliver practical, thought-provoking workshops for organisations, teams and groups. They're designed to get people thinking, talking and doing things differently.
Her sessions draw on her experience as a CEO, leader, adventurer, coach and facilitator, combining real stories and evidence-based thinking with plenty of interaction, reflection and, where appropriate, humour.
Recent and popular themes include:
Navigating Self-Limiting Beliefs
Understanding the beliefs that protect us, the point at which they start to hold us back, and how to find the space between playing it safe and taking unnecessary risks.
Your Leadership Operating System
A practical exploration of the values, beliefs, behaviours and habits that shape how we lead – often without us even noticing.
Trust - The New Competitive Advantage
How trust is built, lost and repaired, and why it matters enormously to leadership, relationships and high-performing teams.
Practical Presentation Training
Helping people present with greater confidence, clarity and impact in the real world of work. We look at knowing your audience, shaping compelling content and creating effective supporting materials, including PowerPoint. No acting, no “projecting”, no standing in front of a mirror practising your breathing. Just practical tools to help you communicate your ideas brilliantly.
Sally can also create bespoke workshops around your organisation's challenges, from leadership and resilience to change, communication, trust and team dynamics.

"I just wanted to write and say thank you for the workshop last week. I found the techniques you taught us incredibly helpful, especially as I have found public speaking tricky in the past.
The presentation that I did following your class was probably the best I have done!
I am seeing the possibilities rather than the challenges of public speaking and I wanted to reach out and let you know how valuable the class was for me."

"Thank you so much for the brilliant training session, very engaging and very inclusive! I took great advice and I have already had a little chance yesterday to make use of it. We definitely need more of this!"
Emma
1-2-1 Coaching Client
"Recently I changed roles to do something in an entirely different industry, a wholly new type of business (start up) and with no one I knew. I knew I was stepping very far our of comfort zone, and was excited but naturally uneasy. I decided that I wanted and needed coaching.
I set out to find the impossible - someone who would be brutally honest, but who would support me: someone who could help me to not only find my way in this new world, but also guide me in harnessing (and recognising!) my own capabilities: someone who would show me how to channel my questioning nature and (frankly) to put away my own insecurities and set my self and my new role up for success...
Sally did all that and more.
If you are looking for an honest, supportive and confidence building coach, then Sally is your woman."

"I attended 'Presentation Skills' with Sally Kettle and I wanted to let you know that this was one of the best trainings I've attended - so thank you for organising it and I hope there will be more trainings like this, and more of those with Sally. She's a fantastic, engaging and thoughtful leader, and the inspiration from the session will reach far beyond the topic of the training itself!"

There are so many parallels to my work as a manager and how you lead a team"
