Welcome
A message from your Virtual Executive Performance Coach
Welcome to the first Virtual Executive Performance Coach Newsletter.
We will be bringing you tips and wisdom on a monthly basis covering the area of executive performance; that might be your performance, that of your team or ultimately your organisation.
It is highly unlikely that top performing sports people like Tiger Woods would even consider not having a coach and you'd be surprised how many successful business people benefit from regular coaching.
As an executive performance coach, I am often asked the question 'why is coaching good for business?' and this first newsletter we will try to answer that question.
Why coaching, why will it make the difference that makes the difference to you and your business and therefore why perhaps you should consider it.
We are also delighted to announce the 'Top Performance' Masterclass which will take place in February with yours truly and Christian Malissard, a coach of great reputation and charisma. It promises to be a day of learning, insights and more importantly will provide you with some tools and techniques that you can use immediately.
And finally, we offer you the opportunity to ask any questions that you would wish to ask your Executive Performance Coach about you, your business, your team and we will endeavour to provide you with an answer next month.
Make a difference today that makes the difference. Good Luck!
My warmest regards,
Kate Tojeiro
Executive Performance Coach and MD,

‘Start At The Right Place’
By Claire Norman
Recently, I have been working alongside a fantastic Tennis Coach and have enjoyed exchanging ideas around that perennial comparison - coaching in sport versus coaching in business.
Ed is a phenomenally successful and sought-after Coach, with a huge list of potential clients who await the fate of some poor tennis player already working with Ed, in order to take their place. Ed is creative, tireless, patient, amazingly accurate in his perception of people and their talents, and his enthusiasm shines through all of his players without exception. Plus of course, he gets results. Having asked him what he found most difficult in coaching, I was fascinated that his response fits within business

To Pout Or Shine…………
By Kate Tojeiro
As an executive performance coach, I am often asked the question ‘why is coaching good for business….’
• A coach will work with you (and your team) on attitude, goals and will support you and have your best interests as a priority.
• A coach will be unbiased, give you objective support that sees and identifies the best of your qualities and abilities and helps you develop them.
• A coach will whole-heartedly support you, provide motivation and inspiration and help you find ways to deal with immediate difficulties as well as helping you plan a long-term career strategy. All of us need guidance and motivation at different times in our

‘Talk Yourself In, Not Out Of Things’
By Claire Norman
A friend of mine has just started to work for a 22 year old, who started up his business of selling databases from his bedroom when still at University. He is now doing very well in an emerging sector, and sharing his success with those that fit his values and want to work with him. There is a real sense of excitement, fun and spirit when you talk to his employees, which he also exudes from every pore. Intrigued by his sense of ‘going for it’ at such a young age, I was perusing on how his business came about, like so many other successful young Entrepreneurs – what

Communicating By Email......Successfully......
By Kate Tojeiro
I have recently had the task of creating a workshop about working with remote and matrix teams and it struck me through speaking with various individuals in both small and large global organisations that effective email communication is often at the heart of fairly major conflicts - it is of paramount importance and when things get a bit hairy - it often stems from the ill-constructed email.
Email has revolutionized the way that we communicate with others. It has given us the ability to process work and information faster and cheaper. Sending documents across multiple sites is instantaneous. We are able to stay in
