Corporate Coaching

Coaching for Leaders Who Want More

Whether you're stepping into a new role, navigating complexity or building a high-performing team β€” Yew Tree Coaching provides a confidential, high-impact partnership to help you grow.

Coaching grounded in lived experience

Lee spent 25 years as a senior leader in global financial services, leading teams of up to 200 people across eight countries. He has faced the pressures, the politics, the ambiguity and the decisions that define leadership at the highest levels.

That lived experience is what makes Lee's coaching different. He doesn't offer theory β€” he offers insight from someone who has been there, combined with a deep coaching expertise built over 1,000+ hours of practice. The result is a coaching relationship that is both challenging and deeply supportive.

What Lee coaches on

πŸ”„ Transition Coaching

New role. New organisation. Promotion. Restructure. Career change. Transitions are defining moments β€” and the most successful leaders don't navigate them alone.

Lee helps you land with confidence, clarity and intent, whether you're moving up, across, or into entirely new territory.

Sessions are tailored to your goals and your pace, with honest challenge balanced by genuine encouragement.

🌱 Leadership Development

Great leaders aren't born, they're developed. Lee works with individuals and teams to develop authentic leadership styles, improve communication, build psychological safety and create the conditions for high performance.

Drawing on his experience transforming functions at HSBC, Lee understands what high-performing culture looks and feels like.
