Leadership Coaching by Simply Body Talk

Leadership coaching is rarely about learning new techniques – most leaders are already highly capable. It is about creating space to pause, reflect, and identify blind spots that may not be visible from within the system. Leaders often seek coaching when navigating high-stakes situations such as global visibility, media or board interactions, complex power dynamics, or organisation-wide change. An external, objective perspective helps them reflect on their journey, gain clarity, and make subtle but meaningful course corrections with the right guidance from the coach.

Leadership coaching is most useful during periods of transition or increased complexity – such as stepping into a larger role, leading across functions, gaining higher visibility with senior stakeholders, or navigating organisational change. It is also valuable when leaders sense that their current approach has taken them far, but may need refinement to handle the next phase of expectations, influence, or scale more effectively.

Our coaching is rooted in a deep understanding of human behaviour – an area that often influences leadership effectiveness more than strategy or skill alone. We focus strongly on nonverbal communication and behavioural patterns that shape how leaders are perceived, how they pick up subtle cues in the room and how they influence others. Sessions go beyond surface-level techniques of speaking or motivating. By working at a behavioural and mindset level, leaders experience sustained, transformational progress rather than short-term fixes.

We work with managers and senior leaders across industries and geographies. Our clients typically hold roles that require influence, decision-making, and visibility at scale.

Yes, executive presence is a frequent coaching focus. However, its meaning varies from leader to leader – for some it is gravitas, for others visibility, authority, or influence in critical conversations. We begin by understanding how you define executive presence and what outcomes you expect from the coaching. Based on that, we align on focus areas using our signature leadership traits framework and design a coaching journey that supports your goals. You may also request a detailed brochure to explore the full range of topics.

We follow a structured pre-assessment process to understand you from a 360-degree perspective – how you think, respond, and show up in different situations. This includes one-on-one conversations, a short diagnostic assessment, and inputs from relevant stakeholders such as colleagues or well-wishers. The pre-assessment typically spans 2 to 7 days, depending on the leadership module selected.

Effectiveness is tracked through a clear progress framework. For individual coaching engagements, a detailed tracker is shared with you outlining objectives, focus areas, practice exercises, and progress indicators. In corporate assignments, this tracker may also be shared with HR and the reporting senior, where appropriate. Each session begins with a review of how previous insights were applied and the business or leadership impact observed, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the journey.

We work with both individuals and organisations. Our leadership coaching engagements include one-on-one coaching as well as corporate assignments for managers and senior leaders.
