Profile
I provide coaching and support at all levels, particulalrly people in organisations who have a latent talent and believe that coaching will assist them in working towards their future career and personal goals.
What is Coaching?
Coaching is usually one to one sessions with people who have a need to develop themselves and want to achieve their goals in life, be they either personal or professional.
The benefits of such coaching are:
- It is tailored to suit the requirements of the person that is being coached (they set the agenda)
- Allows them to express their thoughts, views and future goals without fear of being judged (total confidentiality)
- Provides support to major changes that might be taking place in their career (including organisational changes, redundancy)
- Allows the individual to reflect on their work/life balance so as they can self determine ways in which their daily lives become less stressful (which we all desire).
Training, Qualifications & Experience
I have 27 years experience in HR as well as obtaining a Diploma in Business, Executive and Personal Coaching gained via Coach Institute of Ireland and accredited though the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM).
Qualifications:
Institute of Personnel Management (now Institute of Personnel & Development) - Passed 1989 Croydon College, Surrey England.

About Me
I can honestly say that I've never made life easy for myself but it certainly hasn't been dull, especially the past 4 years.
I remarried in April 2007 and my wife Jan and I (together with my lovely stepdaughter, Hazel, who has autisim) decided to move to Ireland. In doing so I gave up a steady job working as a HR Manager for a waste management company and ended up in Galway working for a Oil Distribution/Petrol Forecourt organisation, as their HR Manager. The experience was invaluable
For family reasons we moved back to Charlton, London but I travel back to Ireland as and when required where I still provide HR advice, coaching and mentoring support and guidence. It also gives me the chance meet up with some wonderful people, whom I count as my friends.
Coming back to London and in my mid 50's, I decided to set up my own business and now operate a franchise through the HR Dept. supporting small businesses in "keeping it people legal".
Wearing my Fulfil HR Services Limited (my company) hat I specialise in supporting people in discovering and identifying their true potential.
My hobbies and interests are:
Playing and more frequently these days watching sport, including football, hurling, tennis, squash and swimming.
Reading especially biographies/autobiographies and articles associated with coaching, human resource management and development.
Travel when or wherever possible and have visited various European countries, the United States, Canada and Thailand.
Listening to music of various styles and in the past I played drums with a number of
semi-professional groups.
