KNOW YOUR STRENGTHS

Personal Strengths Coaching with Nic Jackson

Imagine a saxophone player. They love music, they love their instrument – and the sax brings them joy every time they play. The more accomplished they become at playing, the more they enjoy it.

So they practise, but not guitar chords or piano scales. They focus on what will improve their sax playing – embouchure, breathing, finger work. They build on their strengths and become the best sax player they can be, whether that’s an enthusiastic amateur or a professional musician.

At Personal Strengths Coaching, we help you to do exactly the same – at work and in life. We can’t teach you to play the sax, but we can help you play to your unique strengths and be the best you can be.

WHAT WE DO

Understanding

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses – they make us unique, shape who we are and allow us to build effective teams. But effective coaching isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.

We don’t apply a formulaic coaching model to everyone we work with. We don’t coach by giving everyone the same tools, regardless of their ability to use them. But we do want everyone to recognise their own personal strengths and understand how they can be used to their optimum. 

We help clients discover, define and develop their unique strengths – turning them into their own most powerful tool. Through clear analysis, practical insight and measurable programmes, we help every client reach their goals.

Your strength is our business.

HOW we do it

Insight

Picture this… you’re a boat and your destination is an island across the water. You have a sail and wind power – as well as a few weak points in the boat, both above and below the water line. The weaknesses above the water won’t hinder your progress, but those below the water line may have a limiting effect, quietly slowing your progress and interfering with your goal.

Strengthscope helps you chart a clear, steady course, by identifying your key strengths and your weaknesses – both the allowable weaknesses, which won’t hinder your progress, and the limiting weaknesses that could hold you back. With this insight, you can harness your strengths and navigate the challenges to make it all plainer sailing. And focusing on your strengths creates an energising coaching experience that drives real results – at work and in life.

Strengthscope is the only strengths assessment tool recognised by the British Psychological Society and trusted by organisations such as John Lewis, Citroën, Samsung and Tesco.

HOW YOU BENEFIT

Effectiveness

Whether you’re an individual who wants to increase your personal effectiveness, or you’re responsible for a team and are looking for an effective and measurable way to improve their performance, we can help.

great words about us

What our customers say

  • The Strengths Coaching I have received from Nic has been second to none. She has been insightful and challenging. Nic is a patient listener and understands when to question and how to provoke your thinking in a way that is helpful and not intrusive. She has helped me to see that what may appear to be an initial symptom of an issue, is often not the root cause and she enabled me to search within myself to work through what the actual problem statement is. It is clear that Nic is from a corporate background and that she gets large companies and how they operate, this makes her coaching relevant and shows she can be in touch with a client base that’s large or small scale. Therefore, I have no hesitation in recommending Nicola to any company that wishes to help its colleagues grow and therefore perform to an even higher standard.

  • The coaching I have received from Nicola has been excellent and had a definite and positive influence on the way I manage a busy finance team. Nicola is patient and understanding and skilfully encourages self-reflection, not just to identify the causes of a problem, but to also what the solutions are. She then works with you to put together a list of simple actions to rectify the issue. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants to be a better leader or just be better.

  • The coaching sessions with Nic were really helpful and I came away from them feeling really positive and buoyed. Nic is a patient listener and understands where and when to question further to help work through issues. She quickly understood the business and was able to provided relevant, thought-provoking questions that enabled me to work though problems and identify solutions and next steps. Her insight and questions were both helpful and encouraging, and they gave me the confidence to take actions away and progress. I would highly recommend Nic’s coaching to anyone that wants to progress, or who wants to better themselves or their team.
