Simply Ask Your L&D Team
Nearly a third of our clients have their coaching funded through their company’s Learning & Development budget. Here’s how to tap into yours.
Feedback rarely tells the whole story. Here’s what we hear most, and what’s usually underneath it.
“You ramble in meetings.”
You know your subject inside out. The work is finding the through-line, fast.
“Your presentations need more impact.”
The thinking is already there. The work is how it lands in the room.
“We need you to speak up more.”
You have the view. The work is getting it heard, with weight behind it.
In your call, tell your Client Success Manager what came up at work: what you’d like to change, and how that shift could ripple through the way you show up.
After your call, your Client Success Manager sends a proposal that maps the road ahead: what you want to achieve, and how you’ll know you’ve reach it – shaped around your budget and your goals, and ready to pass straight to your Learning & Development team.
You arrive at your meeting with a detailed roadmap for lifting your productivity in role, alongside a clear framework for tracking how far you’ve come. Once you get the approval, we’ll set you up and you can begin straight away.
You’ll want to know the coaching is working. So will your manager. That’s what the Impact Framework is for: every step is measured, so you reach the outcome you came for and have the evidence to show for it.
Before your first session, you complete your Impact Baseline Survey. It's your starting point: where you are now, and where you want to get to. Everything that follows is measured against it.
Before
As you go, an Impact Pulse checks in along the way. It catches any drift early, so the focus can shift the moment your priorities do. You feel the progress while it's happening.
During
When your sessions are done, you sit down with your Client Success Manager for your Impact Review, where you'll receive a personalised report that sets your growth against the goals you started with. Proof, not just a feeling, that the work has paid off.
After
Wondering how to bring this to your employer? Book a free discovery call. Our Client Success Team will help you see where you are now, find the right coaching for your goals, and give you what you need to have that conversation with confidence.
Often, yes. Many organisations hold a Learning and Development budget that goes underspent each year, and communication coaching sits squarely within it. Nearly a third of our clients fund their course this way. If you’re not certain what your company offers, that’s one of the things a free discovery call can help you uncover, so you arrive at the conversation with your manager already knowing what’s possible.
It can, and it frequently does. Learning and Development budgets are designed for exactly this kind of growth: building a skill that lifts how you show up at work. Communication coaching is a recognised professional development spend, which means it tends to sit comfortably within the same category as a course or a conference. Your L&D or HR team will know how your particular budget is structured, and we can give you the proposal and framework that makes the request easy to say yes to.
It happens less often than people fear, particularly when the request is framed around impact rather than cost. Most managers want their people to grow, and a clear proposal that connects your coaching to the value it brings the team makes that easy to see. If the answer is still no, there are other routes: some clients spread the cost themselves, others revisit the conversation when the next budget cycle opens. A discovery call is a good place to talk through what might work for your situation.
Cost depends on the length of your course and the package that fits your goals, so there’s no single figure that would be honest to quote here. What we can say is that we’ll always be transparent about pricing before you commit, and a free discovery call is where we help you find the right package rather than the biggest one. You’ll leave that conversation with a clear proposal, including the cost laid out in full, ready to take to your employer.
Every step of your journey is measured through our Impact Framework, so nothing rests on hope alone. It begins with an Impact Baseline that names where you are now and the shifts you’re hoping for. As you go, an Impact Pulse checks in to catch any drift and adjust the focus if your priorities move. At the end, an Impact Review shows how far you’ve come, giving you evidence to share with your employer as well as a felt sense of your own growth.
Both. You can work with your coach in person at one of our London offices, or online from wherever you are, whichever suits your schedule and how you learn best. Many clients mix the two across a course. We’ll talk through the options on your discovery call and find the rhythm that works for you.
