Hi, I’m Carlos.
I specialise in career coaching and leadership style. Read on to find out whether I’m the right coach for you.
My particular specialisms are:
I’m particularly passionate about enabling people to make changes in these areas, as I have personally gone through several shifts of career focus over the past 25 years, and have experienced many versions of what we might call a ‘portfolio’ career.
I also support people in a number of other related areas such as:
HOW I WORK WITH YOU
My background as a professional musician has given me the flexibility that I apply to my coaching practice. I use a variety of approaches and techniques, and I very much respond to my clients rather than taking a more rigid approach. Improvising as a musician has developed my ability to think freely and quickly, to generate new ideas in response to those of others.
I am patient and positive, and I will often use a strengths-based approach in working with clients, which is based on positive psychology.
HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
Following our initial, free consultation, we will agree the number of sessions that best works for you and your needs. In each session we might be working on 1 or 2 individual issues, or we might be following through on larger issues from the previous session. This would particularly be the case with a structured programme around career change, for example.
HOW OFTEN WILL WE MEET / SPEAK?
The frequency of sessions is flexible, and very much depends on what areas you want the coaching to focus on, plus your own schedule. However, most people tend to have sessions somewhere between once a week through to once a month.
WHERE / HOW DO WE MEET?
I coach via Zoom and telephone by default. I have found that Zoom is excellent for coaching conversations, and I can screen share from my resource library when we need to. It’s also convenient in terms of scheduling and location is no longer an issue.
I also occasionally offer in-person sessions where I live in Walthamstow, London. I use a range of venues and, if the weather is nice, we may also do part of the session while walking in a park. The physical act of walking while talking and thinking can often in itself bring new insights.
FREE 30-MINUTE CONSULTATION
Whether you’d like a brief initial chat or a free 30-minute consultation, having a conversation is a good way to help you think about / decide whether coaching is right for you, and whether we’re a good fit for each other.
I offer a free 30-minute consultation session before we embark on a full coaching programme together. This conversation can via Zoom or phone. It’s a chance for you to find out more about my approach to personal and professional coaching, and for me to find out more about what you want to achieve from coaching.
Email me your details and I’ll be in touch to arrange a conversation.
