Life Transition Coaching
Life is all about change. Retaining talented employees means that you are likely to see them through some major life changes
Key transitions can include becoming a parent, relocating, changes in family structure and becoming a carer - of elderly parents or relatives.
Supporting employees through life's changes
Employees are often as worried as you are about how they will combine family demands and upheavals with their role and career. Supporting them at these times and keeping them engaged is an indispensable part of keeping their talents on board. We provide coaching for:
Our New Parent Return to Work Plan is a fantastic combination of Transition Coaching and our Childcare Search service. This solution helps parents with the emotional and practical challenges of combining new parenthood with returning to work.
Our 60minute Seminars distil our core expertise into an hour, delivered to your employees in an engaging interactive session. Ideal for lunchtimes!
Demanding corporate environments
We've helped employees working in the most demanding roles, in tough environments through key life transitions, enabling them to make work+family work.
We recognise that major life transitions are a source of huge personal development. Our coaches enable employees to harness new strengths at work. For example, new parents often become more adept at multitasking, develop greater levels of patience and diplomacy as well as greater focus on time management and prioritising.

Coaching enables employees to harness the personal development that often accompanies key life transitions.
Better retention and career progression for talented employees
Employees who are supported with coaching through key life transitions are better equipped to resolve the work-life conflicts that potentially cause performance issues. Knowing that they’ve received innovative, best practice support, they're more likely to feel increased loyalty to the company.
Strengthened employer brand
Our client data suggests life transition coaching leads to higher satisfaction in employee engagement surveys.
Business continuity and productivity
For life transitions such as relocation and maternity and paternity, communication is key for managers and teams to ensure continuity and good planning during absences from the business and clarity of direction for those in new roles.
Being in control of a successful transition
Coaching enables employees to 'stay in control' and provides ways of managing through the life changes they are experiencing. It increases confidence, reduces stress and helps them understand the transition, supporting wellbeing, work-life balance and personal development.
Maintaining professional profile
Maintaining their professional profile and the impact on their careers of big life changes can be a source of great concern. Coaching can help people keep their careers on track alongside family life.
Feeling supported and valued
The knowledge they have received innovative, best practice support means that employees are likely to feel valued by their employer.
