Sandra Egleton

Sandra incorporates her psychological knowledge and skill into her coaching practice and focuses on helping coachees to create sustained change in their work and personal lives.

She works with coachees to identify meaningful goals and helps them identify their key strengths and values as well as challenge limiting beliefs that are holding them back and to generate new perspectives and approaches to meet their work and personal goals. She draws extensively on models and conceptual frameworks from psychology,  and leadership development to inform the coaching conversation and help generate new awareness of self and others.

Sandra is an Executive Coach, Coach Supervisor, Team Coach, Trainer and Facilitator.

Sandra works across the public, private and charity sectors.

“

Coaching has challenged my thinking, provided support and helped me to identify strategies to deal with the issues identified.  The coaching has benefitted me both personally and professionally.  The timing of coaching was ideal in terms of me taking up a new post within a new work area. The coaching has supported me to embrace change, work outside my comfort zone as well as challenge practice.

Senior Leader NHS

At the beginning of our sessions, I had no confidence in my ability to manage people and set myself very high if not impossible expectations. I did not understand the difference between mentoring and coaching and we had a both. Sandra helped me to accept that there was no requirement for me to know everything, and it was ok to take time to think, reflect and then respond to something. She highlighted for me that it was ok to be an introverted thinker and that needing to take time to consider things was not a failing, just a different approach. From there it became easier to see what to do to help those that I manage and to help myself in managing them.

Style

Sandra has extensive coaching experience and has worked with a wide variety of people. She builds trust and meaningful connection quickly and responds sensitively to the individual coachee’s goal aspirations and desire for change and better performance at work. Sandra has increasingly developed a wider organizational approach to her coaching practice given the complexity and volatility of the current work environment. She helps coachees tease out their place in the wider system, the impact of the work context and make sense of overwhelm and impact of heavy work demands and what actions they might reasonably take.
