How coaching can help engineers

Coaching provides a unique opportunity for individuals to confidentially discuss any issues they are facing with someone experienced and that can guide their thinking, strategy and actions to ensure they are performing at the highest level.

To support your business and career development as an engineer, we are offering bespoke one-to-one coaching sessions, led by qualified industry experts who all uphold our values.

  • Early career and graduates

    Create goals and strategically forward plan your future career. Jointly highlight gaps and strengths, reach agreement on actions and experience rapid results.

  • Career transitions

    Discuss your objectives, clarify your short/medium-term goals and benefit from a clearly signposted pathway supported by implementation and accountability.

  • Expatriations/relocations

    Prepare for the changes and challenges that lie ahead.

  • Engineering leaders

    Gain invaluable peer-to-peer insight, gap analysis and an independent, unbiased sounding board to help you expand further into your role as a manager.

  • Freelance consultants and business owners

    Whether you’re a start-up, fledgling business or require executive coaching, get the support you need to reach your goals.

  • Project coaching

As a graduate, the IMechE business coaching sessions really opened my eyes to the value of coaching for personal and professional development, and I will now actively seek coaching opportunities going forward. Since the coaching I have already noticed some real positive improvements in my effectiveness, both in and out of work, and I would highly recommend this for anyone looking to advance in their career.
