Professional Coaching

A strategic investment in long-term career growth specifically designed for professionals looking to improve their workplace performance and advance in their careers.

Our coaching programmes focus on key areas such as career development, leadership skills, and performance improvement, providing a space for self-reflection, as well as practical strategies to navigate professional challenges. Unlike broader personal coaching, this service is dedicated to achieving tangible career outcomes, helping clients refine their strengths, boost their confidence, and chart a clear path toward professional success.

This service is also available in a discreet, text-only format, for clients who prefer added privacy.

Professional Coaching is suitable for

  • Executives/Managers looking to enhance their leadership skills and improve their performance.

  • Mid-career professionals aiming to advance in the workplace or navigate career transition.

  • Emerging leaders and young professionals who want to develop their leadership potential and prepare for greater responsibilities.

  • Career changers seeking guidance on transitioning to a new career, industry, or business venture.

  • High-performing employees identified by their managers or organisations as having potential for significant growth and leadership roles, with the right support.

  • Any professional looking to solve regular workplace problems, improve job performance and enhance professional skills.

  • Problem solvers looking to address and resolve work-related issues effectively.

  • Professionals looking to manage behaviours better and understand how they impact work environment and job performance.

Sessions

We offer flexibility by tailoring each coaching engagement to fit our client’s specific timeline and budget. We can help some clients achieve their desired outcomes within one session, however, as a general guide, we typically recommend 6 to 8 one-hour sessions throughout 3 to 6 months to achieve meaningful and sustainable change. For added flexibility, we can also offer 30-minute sessions and provide ongoing support through written communication between sessions.

  • “Initially, I wondered if coaching was suitable for me. After giving it a shot, Phoenix Coaching became a game-changer for me. Working with Kalim has not only boosted my growth but has also reflected to the performance and ambience of the team. He makes the journey of self-discovery enjoyable and truly inspiring. I highly recommend Phoenix Coaching to anyone looking to up their game in a warm, supportive environment.”

    Mikko Leskinen
    CEO, Leona Consulting

  • “In our workshop, we reflected on very value-laden ideas about national defence and climate change. Participants came from many different organisations and educational backgrounds, with very different expectations. Without Kalim's facilitation, we would not have been able to work together over two days to outline a completely new social debate and achieve collective results.”

  • “Kalim immediately made me feel comfortable on our first meeting as I wasn't sure what to expect in our coaching relationship. He is deliberate in his professional approach which makes our engagement and discussions very encouraging and fruitful. One issue that we worked on together was my fear of the job interview process. We broke it down into various parts and went through them to a point where I could prepare for the job interview on my own. I would definitely recommend him to my friends.”
