Employees don’t leave a company because of poor pay. Over half leave because of bad management. Likewise, employees are better able to weather workplace storms when they’re supported by empathetic leaders.
Of course, executives must also manage their workloads and emotions, which can be challenging when making critical decisions or facing strategic dilemmas. Being a leader is a powerful but sometimes challenging and uncomfortable place to be. Executive leadership coaching can support your leaders’ development so that they can find work-life balance, manage cultural shifts and stakeholder demands, and guide their teams through the good and the bad.
Can you tailor executive leadership coaching and make it scalable? Sanctus can.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to executive coaching. That’s why we tailor our coaching to the needs of you, your business, and your employees—so everyone can benefit and get the most from the experience.
Our coaching is designed to be scalable, so whether you want online drop-in coaching, a group workshop, or a structured coaching program with measurable results, we’ve got something for your executive team.
Executives—and their colleagues and direct reports—will experience the ripple effects of coaching, driving positive change to create a more psychologically safe, productive, high-performing work environment.
At Sanctus, we have a unique “wholebeing” approach. This supports executive leaders in bringing their whole selves to work and leading by this example. It encourages executives to lead with empathy, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence to ensure their teams perform as highly as possible.
Your leaders can get a fresh, objective, external perspective to their problems and development suggestions to help them progress in their careers while supporting their direct reports in theirs.
Connected Leadership is our leadership development program for leaders who want to learn more about themselves and how to lead with empathy, self-awareness, and resilience.
Over 6, 12, or 18 executive coaching sessions, a certified Sanctus coach will work with an executive leader on a one-on-one basis. We tailor the session to the senior manager and their leadership role, alongside their personal needs and development goals. This “wholebeing” approach helps them bring their whole selves to work, encouraging employees to do the same. Leaders can find their leadership style and lean into it, helping them become more effective leaders and key parts of the executive team. Sanctus Coaching can better help them manage challenging situations by connecting them more with their emotions and making them more able to understand their employees’ wants and needs.
They’re assessed at the start and end to see how they’ve progressed. Some of our recent graduates, like at FitFlop, have gone on to receive promotions and recommended the program to their new direct reports.

Read moreExecutive leadership coaching helps your senior leaders balance their day-to-day activities with organizational challenges. It can help with work-life balance, stress management, and resilience building. It’s there to support leaders wherever they are in their career.
Executive leadership coaching helps your senior leaders guide teams more successfully. It can help reduce stress, increase productivity, and boost employee engagement by creating a psychologically safe workplace with a culture of support, belonging, and “wholebeing.”
With the help of a certified coach, leaders become better prepared to respond to challenging situations instead of reacting to them, helping regulate their emotions so that they can support their direct reports. This also means they’re less likely to experience workplace stress as their daily work activities won’t have such a significant impact on their emotions.
Executive coaching focuses on an executive’s role as a leader and the specific skills they need, such as strategic thinking.
Leadership coaching can benefit current and future leaders of every level. It can help you prepare your team for managerial roles. Its goal is to help them lead with empathy and create a psychologically safe workplace while balancing their own work commitments.
Executive coaching is conducted by a qualified Sanctus Coach. All our coaches have over 500 hours of coaching experience, and many have worked with household names such as BBC, FitFlop, and Red Bull. Coaching can help executives work on specific skills that will benefit their work and/or personal lives, such as emotional intelligence or work/life balance.
Anyone can be a mentor, but usually it’s someone further along in their career who can show someone the ropes in the next stages of their career. They don’t need to have formal training, whereas all of our Sanctus Coaches do.
