Personal Performance Enhancement and Change Management Expert.
ICF Certified Professional Coach

Accendit Coaching offers a wide range of coaching opportunities and solutions for individual clients, medium and large companies from personal development, career transition, employee engagement and commitment and team performance.
Over the years building on real leadership experience and coaching skill, we have developed what we believe to be three niche areas.
Specifically, these are:
- Senior Leader and Executive Coaching
- High Value Team Coaching
- Coaching Teams/Individuals in Hostile or Hierarchical Environments
All the above has been built on a wealth of operational experience, appropriate training, and developed skills. Our coaches and associates are specifically equipped to work in these areas. These approaches are totally focused on client needs. The time spent and cadence will be driven by the client with our guidance.
Executive Coaching requires not just coaching skill, but the perspective required to understand the challenges and complexities of working at a senior level.

Team Coaching is different from team facilitation which it is often confused with. It requires deep coaching skill to support the team and with the individuals within the team throughout the process in a way that they solve their challenges.

Hostile & Hierarchical Environments are where companies, divisions or departments are so dysfunctional that they are creating internal hostility either actively or passively in such a way that it is impeding staff and teams to work openly, creatively, and effectively.
If you feel that your organisation needs any help in any of these areas, please reach out to us at Accendit. We can discuss your challenges and tailor an approach for your needs.

Life is rarely black and white, but far too many of us spend our time feeling fuzzy, unfocussed and lost in the grey. Accendit Coaching is here to help you see things more clearly, gaining focus and clarity of purpose, drive and direction, so that you can increase your energy, improve your performance and fulfil your true potential in business and in life.
We cannot change your life, but we can give you the tools you need to approach it in a new and life changing way.

BESPOKE BUSINESS COACHING
Every company and every individual have their own unique set of challenges, and so we tailor our approach to match, with bespoke one to one sessions designed specifically for you.
Accendit has an extensive toolkit of proven techniques from which to create your personal programme, so you can be sure you’ll get the solutions and strategies you need to work more efficiently and effectively. We have considerable experience in the manufacturing and industrial sectors, delivering effective productivity programmes, using a combination of coaching and consulting founded on “Lean Principles”. We can also design programmes for groups with common challenges.

Coaching For Cultural Transformation
Staying Competitive In Changing Environments
A Book By John Cockburn-Evans
It is no longer acceptable to have a static company culture. In order to stay competitive in volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous business environments, company culture needs to evolve in a focused and strategic manner. Despite the number of change management models that exist, implementation is often poor. The solution? An effective coaching programme, whereby leaders and staff are coached at all levels to mitigate against failure.
This practical guide offers advice on how to coach, lead or influence cultural transformations in large organisations. Through behavioural psychology theory, company examples and personal anecdotes from the author, the reader will learn the business imperative for change, potential failure points and why coaching is critical. This book will demonstrate:
- Established change management and cultural transformation models
- The impact of regional and existing company cultures on the success of change programmes
- Examples of inspirational leadership and alternative approaches
- How to overcome resistance to change at an individual and company-wide level
For all coaches and managers who want to support sustainable change, this is essential reading with insights that can immediately be put into practice
“John has cracked the code of successful cultural transformation. His book is a primer that lays out the most business effective roadmap to guide sustainable change.”
―James B. Porter, Jr., Former Vice President, E. I. DuPont and Company
FEEDBACK
What are our clients saying about us?
I used John’s business coaching services and I could not be happier with the results
It was my good fortune to have a coaching session with John during very challenging and decisive period of my life
I had a few coaching sessions with John, including the Energy Leadership Index (ELI) assessment/feedback and I must say, they have tremendously helped me at better understanding my strengths and how to adapt myself to different situations.
