What is Group Coaching?

Group coaching brings a small group of peers together to reflect, share, and support each other's development. If it is part of your programme, it runs alongside your one-to-one coaching sessions and adds a different but equally valuable dimension to your growth.

The group stays together throughout the programme. Sessions typically last 90 minutes and take place every three to four weeks. In your first session, the group agrees on its own schedule and sets shared ground rules to make sure the space feels safe and productive for everyone. Common agreements cover confidentiality, punctuality, and how the group will listen and give each other space.

How it works

Each session is facilitated and structured, but it is shaped by what the group brings. You will reflect on your own challenges, hear how others are navigating similar situations, and work together to find perspective and solutions. The diversity of experience in the room is part of what makes it effective.

Because you stay with the same group throughout, trust builds over time. That continuity makes the conversations go deeper than they could in a one-off setting.

Why it matters

One-to-one coaching gives you focused, personalised support. Group coaching gives you something different: the collective intelligence of people who are all genuinely invested in their own development and in each other's. You hear perspectives you would not get in a private session. You practise the skills of listening, collaborating, and giving honest input in real time. And you leave each session with more than just your own thinking, which is often where the most useful shifts happen.

Group coaching is not just about solving the challenges you walk in with. It also builds the capabilities you need to handle the ones that come later.
