Pebble Professional Development

My name is Mark Berry, and I am a personal effectiveness coach who helps overworked people reduce workload stress, boost productivity and free up mental bandwidth so they can improve their personal effectiveness, increase confidence and remove blockages and mind-limiting beliefs holding them back.

I help people be better versions of themselves by coaching them through various situations in their life, such as career coaching, managing and living with their ADHD, confidence issues, business coaching and lifestyle choices. People who have a need to increase their self-esteem or reduce anxiety and improve relationships, helping them navigate the bumps in the road along the way.

My coaching style is holistic, calm and empowering, yet it also works wonders at inspiring people to rise to their individual challenges. Through the use of attentive listening and insightful questioning, my main goal is always to make sure that my client's experience is positive and delivers lasting change, with 'shifts' in their way of thinking to broaden their perspective.

As a qualified coach and an experienced training facilitator, I have almost two decades of experience working with individuals life coaching, successful business owners, young professionals, entrepreneurs, managers, and leaders helping them overcome the uncertainty that affects how well they perform in their daily lives and businesses.

Laser Focus Coaching Programme
7 Sessions - £495

You're constantly being pulled in a million different directions, and sometimes you just need to take a step back and ask yourself what the heck is going on. 

That's where the 'Laser Focus Coaching Programme' comes in. Pebble are here to help you make sense of it all, and get back on track with your goals—especially when they start to feel like they're slipping away.

Pebble's Laser Focus Coaching Programme will help you to achieve your goals and reach your full potential, quickly and still at a pace you can keep up with. I will work with you one-on-one to help you overcome any challenges you may be facing and develop a clear plan for success.

I named it laser focus for a reason!
During the course of your 7 sessions, we'll work together to dig deep into what's holding you back from achieving your goals, identify your barriers, and process them out of the way so that you can move forward again with confidence. You'll learn how to identify what's truly important to you and how best to use your time, energy, and resources towards those things. Each session will create a shift in thinking, allowing you to gain clarity on your present problems and find a drive to get things done. 

This is all achieved within 7 sessions because Pebble's coaching process works, it's simply (don't tell everyone) about having meaningful conversations with people, working through their problems with effective and powerful questions, (people tell me that's the hard bit) and creating space for a response. Clients have had amazing success, often within the first session! - they have the "aha" moment where a sudden 'shift' happens in their thinking and then all of the things look different. 

Sound familiar? (spoiler alert! the coaching worked for them)
"I run my own business and I have very little time. It seems like every day there's a new problem that needs my attention. I can't delegate all of these problems to other people because some of them are my responsibility" - local business owner

"I wish I could clone myself so that I could get more done in a day. But even if I could, I know that there would still be problems that only I could deal with. I feel like I have to be able to handle everything that comes my way, even when I'm already stretched thin" - business partner

"It seems like every day I'm dealing with problems that others could deal with. I'm constantly having to engage with my team and I'm constantly trying to motivate them and get them to work together. It's exhausting" - Director of a multinational company

It can work for you too!

Business owners invest in their employees!
The importance of employee development for retaining top talent, building an internal talent pipeline, and keeping employees engaged is now becoming clear to many businesses. The evidence supports this. According to a Deloitte survey of millennials, 63% of them believe that their leadership abilities are not being completely developed, and 71% of workers that are planning to quit their current jobs in the next two years are unhappy with the way their leadership skills are being developed. These figures are still increasing.

Investing in coaching for your employees creates promotable employees and strengthens the business's ability to improve sales, customer satisfaction and employee retention. It promotes better decision-making, creates fantastic self-awareness and generally makes your employees feel valued and better connected to the business's aims and values itself.

I love gaming, watching F1, and following rugby league and I'm crazy about sharks. I enjoy wittiness in people, and stand-up comedy, but I am not a fan of reading.

What spare time I do have, I spend with my wife and three children, weekends away, local walks and eating out.
