Traditional coaching often fails to address the complex, nuanced experiences of women. Our solution? Equity-driven coaching that is grounded in research and evidence, informed by intersectionality, and tailored to the real, lived experiences of your employees.
Shape Talent’s coaching spans executive leadership, high-potential development, and key life-work transitions. Led by Professor Rebecca Jones – Professor in Coaching for Behavioural Change at Henley Business School – our practice combines academic rigour with practical depth. Every programme is underpinned by our Three Barriers® research and delivered by top-tier, credentialed coaches who understand both people and power.
This is coaching that goes beyond personal skill-building. It tackles the cultural and systemic forces that slow progress, supporting women to lead fully – and organisations to retain, progress and include them at every level.
