Members team up to provide leadership coaching to staff

The Leadership Coaches, a team of inspirational, credible and goal-focused coaches, have been chosen as leadership partner for Unity Trust Bank.

Unity Trust Bank and The Leadership Coaches were shortlisted for the Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce Responsible Business Award at this year 's annual award ceremony, hosted at the International Convention Centre, Birmingham.

Upon winning the award, Unity Trust Bank expressed a keen interest in working with an external executive coaching company that could provide one-to-one leadership coaching for directors and senior leaders.

As the Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce offers an excellent platform for businesses to network and ultimately create long-lasting business relationships, Unity Trust Bank approached The Leadership Coaches to learn more about the services offered.

Having seen that The Leadership Coaches share the same value in giving back and looking after the world, Unity Trust Bank reviewed the high-quality profiles of The Leadership Coaches team of coaches and references. Following this, Unity Trust Bank commissioned The Leadership Coaches to be their coaching provider for executive coaching.

Currently organising the initial set of coaching chemistry sessions with coachees, The Leadership Coaches are looking forward to getting started.

Speaking of the partnership, director of Coaching Zoe Lewis said: “We are thrilled to be the chosen partner for Unity Trust Bank to provide their executive coaching for directors and senior leaders. We share similar values; we both believe in doing good for others and doing the right thing. More and more organisations are choosing to work with ethically sound providers, and we are proud to be chosen for this, alongside our expertise in leadership coaching. ”

Julia Tarpey, Human Resources director at Unity Trust Bank, said: “I came across them when I saw that they were shortlisted alongside us for the Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce award for Responsible Business. I thought it would be great to have access to external coaches who were from a like-minded organisation, and we now have an agreement in place. ”
