Our coaching programme with the horses can provide a solution to a n umber of specific challenges such as:
- lack of confidence/need for assertiveness
- bullying in the work place (for both bully and victim)
We can also work at a deeper level with people who are going through change due to events such as promotion, redundancy, children leaving home and changing job.
We have noiced that some of our clients are also affected by the events going on in the world at present and are looking for greater clarity and purpose. Including some time with the horses in our coaching programmes helps to set new direction as well as simply lifting the spirit.
Our coaching sessions take place in a quiet, peaceful and private setting. We have delightful and very different horses so let them give you feedback or practice your new behaviour. They, along with one of our coaches will support your learning and help you move forward. Coaching with horses can also be part of our more traditional "talk" coaching programmes.
Our clients tell us that this form of coaching is very effective. Here is what a recent client had to say:
"I was rather sceptical and wondered how on earth working with horses could possibly help with coaching and confidence. Well how wrong was I? Beth and the horses helped get my confidence levels back in no time at all. Beth explained the horse need to know who in is control and I was able to use that experience in the workplace. I have and will continue to recommend Gentle Leadership to anyone requiring assistance with leadership and coaching. Thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile experience."

Learn to Coach like a Horse
This is a two day programme open to experienced coaches who have already attended any of our red horse speaks programmes. It was inspired by a coach was was amazed at how much she learned from the horses in a very short time and wanted to offer accelerated results to her clients even although she didn't have a horse to help her.
So, if you would like to offer accelerated results to your clients, this is the programme for you. It's desigend to be enjoyable and thought provoking - and you will also have the opportunity to practice your new found skills with both horses amd humans!
Here's what one of our recent participants said:
"I manage a team of project coordinators in a large medical company. Most training programs that I attended in my job tend to be rather theoretical and the learning fades away after the initial fascination has passed and working life is back to normal.
My trip from Belgium to Scotland was absolutely worthwhile since the horses have given me a learning that went much deeper and is still much alive inside of me months later - especially Bluebell who gave me a pretty clear message.
I had serious problems with a team member who had like a wall around him and no matter what I did I could not really be in contact with him, let alone coach him. Bluebell had the same attitude towards me; she completely ignored me. She really reminded me so much of my team member. I was just standing still at a distance from her and, I guess, released my pressure on her. As soon as I did this, she walked straight towards me and made it clear she wanted a good rub. Absolutely amazing! I am now doing the same with my team member, and, honestly, he approaches me now!"
