Welcome to C I Executive Coaching

CIEC is the only organisation specializing in high-impact, 1-to-1 coaching for directors, senior managers and business owners across the Channel Islands.

It was founded in 2004 by Tracey Turmel, to meet the demand for local, accredited coaches. Clients include key employees within in a diverse range of organizations in both Jersey and Guernsey, from large businesses such as HSBC PB, Mourant, UBS, Jersey Dairy and Jersey Post to smaller, entrepreneurial businesses such as Basle Group and the senior teams at the award winning Virtualize IT and Foreshore. As her reputation has grown, Tracey now regularly coaches in England and has recently expanded her client base into Switzerland, where her dual nationality makes her a valuable asset to local organisations with offices there .

Coaching programmes are specially designed to meet the individual demands of each client, through extensive collaboration during the early stages of the coaching relationship.

Although each coaching client and context is unique, themes often recur when dealing with management and leadership skills, and Tracey frequently coaches around issues such as communication, motivation, work-place relationships and confidence: all areas which traditional training typically fails to impact, yet which are all vital, if people, and therefore businesses, are to perform to their optimum.

Tracey's clients often report decreased stress-levels, as coaching encourages them to take responsibility for their situation, and offers strategies for making changes, with significant results, not only for the individual client, but also for their teams and direct reports.

Coaching is also proven to be an effective means of supporting new managers in their role, particularly when in conjunction with training. In fact, by combining coaching with training, organisations can radically improve their ROI on their training spend.

As well as being an experienced business coach, Tracey is also trained to support clients through the challenging process of redundancies, and is able to offer confidential and discreet career and outplacement guidance.

New Bespoke Lunch and Learn Workshops

Why not try our bespoke  Lunch and Learn workshops?
 
Are you looking for new, cost-effective ways to reward  and support  (and thereby, retain) your valuable staff?

Run along the lines of "Lunch and Learn" workshops, these 2 hour bespoke sessions are designed to help your staff identify and address the factors that contribute to their stress levels (at home and at work) on a daily basis, and take responsibility for making changes.

My favourite definition of stress is, "Not knowing what to do next". For anyone who can't see the woods for the trees, this workshop will certainly point you in the right direction, and motivate you to take action, leading to real positive change.

In an informal, friendly and respectful environment, attendees will assess their current situation at both work and home, before devising their individual action plans to take them towards their personal and professional goals. Even the smallest of steps can have a big positive impact.

Run in-house, for groups of up to 10, these workshops will leave your staff feeling empowered and motivated to take control of the things that get in the way, allowing them to feel happier and healthier in all walks of life.  Alternatively, if you'd prefer, the workshop could be held in a location of your choice and be combined, for example, with a light lunch.
 
It is important to note that this workshop does not require the divulging of any personal details in order to be of benefit. If, however, attendees are comfortable contributing, then the ensuing discussion is likely to generate even more ideas.

ABOUT COACHING PROGRAMMES

It is often said that an effective coach provides an independent pair of ears with whom a senior individual can talk about the issues they may be unable to discuss with others iinside the organisation. Because of the nature of this unique relationship, confidentiality and trust are key.

Some ground rules and a coaching agreement need to exist between all parties involved: the person from within the organisation who initiated the coaching programme, known as the sponsor ( usually the client's employer, line-manager, or HR manager), the coach and the individual being coached (referred to here as the client). Occasionally, if there is no sponsor, for example for self-employed individuals, the agreement is simply between the coach and the coaching client.

The coach's role is to support, without judgement, and challenge the individual to perform at a higher level and believes:

  • No matter how people currently perform, we all have the ability to perform even better in aspects of our working lives
  • People are their own best resource
  • People are not defined by their current behaviour. Coaching focusses on behaviours (which can be changed) not personalities.

How do the coaching sessions work?

A typical ¨basic¨  programme consists of 6 x 1 hour coaching discussions over a period of  90 - 100 working days. Because of the bespoke nature of CIEC coaching, alternative options are always available, for example, beginning the programme with a feedback exercise to raise self-awareness, or a LAB profile to elicit the client's motivation patterns in work. (For more information on LAB profiling visit www.WordsThatChangeMinds.com )

Each individual needs to come to coaching with some identified areas to work on, in order to affect  behavioural changes.  Ideally, these will have been discussed and agreed with the sponsor / line manager (see above).  During the first coaching discussion these areas are explored, prioritised and turned into clear goals linked to Measurable Objectives (MO's). 
 
At the end of each coaching discussion the client goes away with a self-determined action plan, for completion prior to the next meeting.
In order to keep on track and to assess progress, the coaching client completes a mid-point review half way through the coaching programme and a final review at the end. Together the coach and client review the goals and MO's, along with recommendations for the way forward. Both reviews are shared with the sponsor (typically the line-manager) with prior agreement from the client. It is important to note that the detailed content of the coaching discussions remains confidential between the coach and the individual.  However, any trends identified  will be presented back to the organisation, if  prior agreement is given from the client.

At the mid-point of the programme, the sponsor  is also asked for feedback on the client's progress in terms of behavioural changes relating to the MO's set out at the start. This enables the coach, the client and the sponsor to monitor the quality of the coaching and the progress being made, ensuring ROI.
The Benefits fo Coaching
 
Although every individual, and organisation, is unique, experience has taught us that certain themes frequently arise, which coaching is able to address:
  • Communication and inter-personal relationships
  • Conflict with colleagues or clients
  • Work load, time-management and delegation (and ofter all 3!)
  • Lack of clarity around expectations
  • Confidence
The benefits you can expect, through using an external (as opposed to in-house) coach include:
  • Improved staff morale and retention
  • Reduced staff absences, by addressing the work/life balance
  • Improved communication by using a coaching approach to problem solving
  • Empowering employees to pro-actively resolve issues which are affecting the team's performance
  • Improved performance through goal-setting, planning and prioritising
  • Increased productivity, directly affecting the bottom-line of your business
  • Improved decision-making on a daily basis
A study of 1000 companies using Executive coaches, reported the following findings:
  • 77% reported improved working relationships
  • 67% reported an improvement in team work
  • 53% reported increased productivity
  • 52% reported a reduction in conflict
  • 32% reported an increase in retention of senior staff

A separate study carried out by the International Coaching Federation, which surveyed 11,000 corporate coaching clients, found that a staggering 98.5% said that their investment, regardless of what it cost, was "well worth it"!

Much of Tracey's coaching focusses on raising self-awareness, enabling clients to make significant changes in behaviour, often with dramatic effect.

As Robin Sharma, author of "The Greatness Guide" said,

"Self-awareness precedes choice, and choice precedes results."

Until we are really aware of the impact our actions have, how can we make choices which will positively improve our performance? The process of increasing our self awareness, through candid  feedback can be uncomfortable at times. However, the ability to adapt our behaviour and thereby our impact on others, is key to leadership.

 

Tracey is an experienced career coach, working with individuals in organisations, to identify long-term career goals, and future development needs. Coaching is also highly effective in supporting career transitions. Much of her work is with newly appointed Senior Managers, who frequently feel neglected and isolated in terms of preparation and / or training for their new role.

Through coaching she is also able to assist with preparation for interviews, dealing with nerves and enhancing communication, giving candidates the best chance of success.

" I can honestly say that the strategies and techniques Tracey has taught me to use in various situations have completely changed my whole view and approach, not only to work, in my new role as Manager at JPL, but to life in general. Her methods are very clear, and the way she relates the models to your own personal experiences makes them easy to implement. Tracey's enthusiasm to support you achieving your goals is a huge part of the success of her coaching."  Matt Carr, Manager, Jersey Post Logistics

"In my new role as manager of a technical team, Tracey really helped me with my communication skills. Using her specialised coaching techniques, I found a new sense of confidence which I could use both with clients and colleagues. Tracey is a fantastic listener. She always has really useful tools and offers great gems of advice, where appropriate. I'd certainly recommend her to anyone who feels pressure, within the hectic nature of the business world." Gilly Challinor, Operations Manager, Webreality

Tracey is also specially trained in career counselling during outplacement projects, working in collaboration, where relevant, with Fairplace, the UK's leading career managment specialists. For more information on their work, visit www.fairplace.com

"I would definitely recommend Tracey to anyone in this situation. Even after the first session, I felt calmer and more positive about my prospects for the future. She gets to the root of the problem, whether it's to do with being happy in your job, or looking for work. Using different techniques, she explored my individual needs, rather than telling me what she thought I should do. The results were amazing."    Paul, Senior Operations Administrator, Invesco

She also works with private clients, to review their career options, and is qualified to use cutting-edge profiling techniques, which look at motivation and working traits, thus raising client's self awareness regarding the suitability of potential posts. In August 2009 tracey travelled to Berlin for a week long, final assessment in LAB profiling, a unique tool which looks at the link between Language, Behaviour and Motivation in the workplace. She was awarded the Advanced Business Applications Certificate in LAB Profiling, which adds value to her coaching and career counselling clients.

"The career coaching session with Tracey allowed me to assess my situation and resulted in me changing jobs. The coaching process highlighted my priorities and allowed me to see a clear path by which I could reach my objectives.I now feel like a different person: so much happier and more confident. I would highly recommend Tracey. She is a supportive and approachable career coach who has a very personable demeanour."  Georgina Jeffries

"I just wanted to let you know I got my Bikram Yoga qualification in Los Angeles and I've just started teaching in a beautiful place outside Brisbane! I'm happy and enjoying myself and my work! I want to thank you again for helping me make the many changes in my life, ones that I was too scared to face alone and ones that I always dreamed of making. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you Tracey"  Lisa Miller, Personal Trainer, ex-Fitness First
 
MANAGING REDUNDANCIES: Tracey is specially trained in career counselling during outplacement projects, working in collaboration, where relevant, with Fairplace, the UK's leading career management specialists. She is able to offer confidential and discreet counselling, to enable clients to deal with the range of emotions involved in redundancy, as well as devising strategies for moving on.

"I would definitely recommend Tracey to anyone in this situation. Even after the first session, I felt calmer and more positive about my prospects for the future. She gets to the root of the problem, whether it's to do with being happy in your job, or looking for work. Using different techniques, she explored my individual needs, rather than telling me what she thought I should do. The results were amazing."    Paul, Senior Operations Administrator, Invesco

Given that the "credit crunch" is likely to impact us all, wouldn't it be useful to ensure you get the best possible return on your training investment? By supporting training initiatives with coaching, your organisation will see considerable evidence of your staff's new skills / learnings.

There is statistical evidence to suggest that traditional training only results in a 22% improvement in productivity.

However,  when training is combined with coaching (before the training takes place, to confirm the objectives, and / or afterwards, to ensure implementation of the new learnings once back in the workplace) a dramatic improvement of 88% was found.

So, you can ensure you get better value for money, and see real behavioural change, by supporting the traditional training of your senior staff, with coaching.

What clients have said about coaching with Tracey....

¨I contacted Tracey a number of years ago, when I was considering the options around management training for myself and my senior team. We have been working with Tracey ever since. Coaching has proven to be far more effective than traditional, classroom based learning. As a  result of our work together, I interact and communicate better with people, I make better decisions, I listen more and I look at things differently, with greater insight. Tracey has been fun to work with, is very intuative and I would certainly recommend her.¨
                                                                                                                                                  Julian Box,  CTO and Co-Founder, Virtustream
 

"I have benefitted from Tracey's executive coaching personally and corporately for nearly 10 years. She has worked with me and several of my senior management teams.

I can't recommend Tracey's services more highly. She has delivered significant results with my teams and with me personally. The net result isn't just great efficiency and productivity (although these have been welcome gains), crucially the net result has been more happiness.

Over the years I have recommended Tracey to many corporate clients and the feedback has always been gratitude." Phil Balderson

 

¨It is without a doubt that my-self and the team at Bracken Barrett & Associates attribute a large proportion of our recent success in a national award to Tracey and her Executive Coaching services.

In 2010 we out grew our premises and with staff numbers growing to accommodate patients' needs, we found staff becoming unhappy with their working relationships. At this point, we engaged Tracey to assess our way of working as a team and identify areas for improvement and development.

Only through our  positive mentoring partnership with Tracey  and her expert guidance, were we at Bracken Barrett & Associates able to achieve the amazing accolade of BDA (British Dental Association) Best Practice of the Year award , Runner- up 2011.  As a national award with over 1600 practice and 24,000 dental members, this was no meager achievement.¨ Jane Jenkins, Bracken Barrett Dental Practice

¨Often, all that's needed is a bit of a discussion around why work is difficult, or distressing or stressful. Whilst that is useful, it doesn't 'take' you anywhere or help you organise what to do about it.  To this end, I found that some of the exercises and activities Tracey used in the sessions were really beneficial. I've learnt some very useful ways of tackling situations that in the past I'd have found really difficult. Questioning and wording techniques also helped me to tackle conversations in a way that doesn't further inflame an already inflamed scenario! The Post-it notes exercise about what I needed from a job, and the ¨what will happen if I do/don't and what won't happen if I do/don't¨ exercise were both extremely useful in order to put my thoughts, decision making and fears into perspective. I came out of the exercise having discussed the issues but with a meaningful output as well as just getting something off my chest.

Part of the success of coaching is down to the relationship with the coach: the freedom to explore certain scenarios and discuss them in an open and honest way has been invaluable, and really helped in some of the key areas that I wanted to tackle - self-belief, my own development and that of my team. Overall, coaching with Tracey has made me a more confident individual and therefore a better/more resourceful manager and employee. I
'm going to miss the sessions!¨

¨Tracey worked with us in Switzerland and was very good. I would have her back!¨ Stephen Skelley, Head of PWS Europe, HSBC PB

¨Tracey has bought energy and fresh thinking to our organisation and her value has been tangible in several areas.  She has provided executive coaching to several senior people who have fed-back that they value her challenge, honesty and support.  Our good people have become great through her structured coaching and each has become a champion of coaching within their respective team.  Personally I have found her a great sounding board when I am thinking through issues and solutions and together we have designed additional interventions such as workshops, which have been effective and really well received.  She has an army of fans within our organisation!¨       Anna Ruewell, HR Business Partner, HSBC PB CI

¨Working with Tracey was excellent and very motivating!¨ Thomas Frey, Head of GuyerzellerTrust, Zurich, Switzerland

¨Tracey has a great knowledge of her subject and understanding of people's challenges. She enables them to develop a tool-kit to meet those challenges. Coaching with her has been enlightening!¨ Paul Alker, Business Development, HSBC PB

¨Tracey has helped me in a number of ways over recent years. In my opinion, she is everything an executive coach should be, and I never hesitate to recommend her.¨       Kevin Keen. 

¨Coaching with Tracey has been brilliant!¨ Tim le Gallais, Director, F. le Gallais and Sons Ltd. 

"This coaching has come up at exactly the right time and has helped me to focus on what I believe should be the important issues. It has provided me with confidence when needed, covered areas that gave me guidance (even if not always in a format that was within my comfort zone!) and has given me a platform to discuss subjects outside of a work environment. All in all, it has been really, really helpful. Thank you, Tracey!" Simon Murtagh, Snr RM, HSBC PB

¨The workshop was a really useful experience and I shall use the 2 models Tracey showed us, to clarify where I am going in my life.¨ Martha Bernstein

¨The Life Audit exercise was fascinating and has encouraged me to focus on areas where I lack direction.¨      Christine Whitfield
 
¨Coaching with Tracey has been invaluable. Not only has it greatly improved my work but has also helped on a personal level too - it's changed my life.¨ Susanne Lowman, Design and Marketing Manager, Philatelic, Jersey Post 


"I had no real idea what to expect from my time with Tracey. However, I found her coaching style to be relaxed and informal on the surface, yet she managed to really probe with some very insightful questions and some real life examples. I came out of this feeling that Tracey provided me with a much clearer sense of self awareness and understanding of how people might respond to my actions and communications - she doesn't so much give advice as enable you to come up with the answers yourself. I feel the whole process with Tracey was extremely valuable and would highly recommend her."                         Derek Fage, Technical Director, Foreshore

"Tracey has a disarming style that is relaxing yet completely focused upon the specific issues that I wanted to address, using open questions and honest feedback in pursuing the issue until it was resolved.
Through Tracey's coaching skills and perceptive observations, I arrived at some truly remarkable insights into myself, which continue to guide the way I work, long after the programme ended. Her insights gave me the confidence to believe that what I was doing was right for me and my style. Some techniques opened my eyes in other ways that I really had not expected, with remarkable results. "                     Jeremy Rothwell , Director,  Chateau Fiduciaire SA,  Switzerland 

¨I just wanted to drop you a line to say everyone was really impressed with the training you delivered this morning. There were lots of great ideas and actions to improve some of the ways we operate. You are very talented in eliciting information and facilitating. Thank you very much.¨ Lorna , Manager, Jersey Women's Refuge

¨In a single meeting, Tracey clarified where I need to focus my energy.¨ Kelly Barker, Head of Marketing, Durrell

"The Directors at iConsult were very new to running a business when we began our coaching with Tracey. The whole process has been invaluable in helping to build our skill set in a broad range of areas including the management and motivation of our teams, our strategic planning and the improvement in our day to day ability to run our business. Tracey is a great listener and has the ability to hold up a mirror in order for her clients to make real improvements. After seeing the benefits of the coaching process with Tracey we are planning to make this process integral to all staff development at all levels of our business."  Dan Cattermole MCSE MC, Director, iConsult


"4 hours' discussion with Tracey has been quantifiably beneficial.  Her measured, structured approach gave us the benchmark for improvement at the outset, and the improvement in me is tangible.  It is one of those experiences that I actually only recognised I have benefitted from when I stopped to reflect on what had been achieved - not just over the few weeks' duration of our meetings, but in my perspective on work and lifestyle priorities.  I distinctly remember trying to express at outset how I felt that I was working harder than anybody else, yet only achieving the same or poorer results; my perspective has changed as a direct result of our reflections on my behaviours and attitude.
My only reservation at outset was that the process might be intrusive; it was not.  In fact, its arms-length objectivity is helpful in a way that I could not have experienced at work, with family or among friends.  I now recognise how easy it is to be distracted by specific, short-term issues and so lose sight of the bigger picture, and I am much happier about my past performance and, more importantly, the outlook as a direct result of talking and listening to Tracey.  One of the most memorable pieces of advice was to "stop beating yourself up!"!  I reflect on that frequently, and heed the advice.  I can be a good Dad and Husband and a successful Client Adviser, all at the same time.

I shall be encouraging my colleagues at UBS - regardless of their seniority - to do the same.  After all, true holistic "coaching" for many Managers in large organisations is just a small part of their role and in 24 years of my working life I've yet to meet one who does it well!  You're never too old, experienced or too senior in the hierarchy to learn more about yourself. " Paul Raphael, Senior Client Advisor, UBS

"Tracey provided me and my team with an independent ear to air issues which could be difficult to discuss within the employee/boss relationship. Coaching also enabled me to identify my development needs and devise an action plan to improve my performance at work. Tracey helped me realize how important it is to adapt my management style to get the best out of each member of my team."  Kevin Keen, MD, Jersey Dairy


"On the surface, our coaching discussions are relaxed and jovial, but Tracey always pushes for something! It is always a challenging conversation!" Senior Manager, CI Traders

" I can honestly say that the strategies and techniques Tracey has taught me to use in various situations have completely changed my whole view and approach to work, and life in general. Her methods are very clear, and the way she relates the models to your own personal experiences makes them very easy to implement. I would also say that Tracey's enthusiasm to help you achieve your goals is a huge part of the success of her coaching"  Matt Carr, Manager, Jersey Post Logistics

"Tracey worked with one of our Directors who was under a lot of stress. She turned him around completely, to an extent beyond our expectations! We're delighted!" Mike Hocquard, Pentagon

"Coaching has most definitely been a good investment. I'm changing my working habits, and now use specific techniques to improve my performance. I've also reassessed how I manage my team, which is already having positive results. Tracey's coaching has been invaluable…."  Senior Manager, Mourant

"In my role as manager of a technical team, Tracey really helped me with my communication skills. Using her specialised coaching techniques, I found a new sense of confidence which I could use both with clients and colleagues. Tracey is a fantastic listener. She always has really useful tools and offers great gems of advice, where appropriate. I'd certainly recommend her to anyone who feels pressure, within the hectic nature of the business world." Gilly Challinor, Operations Manager, Webreality

"The coaching discussions with Tracey have been really useful. She has an ability to put you at ease, but challenge you too. I would have no hesitation in recommending her." Manager, Jersey Post Logistics

"The investment in coaching with Tracey has definitely been worthwhile. The company is getting far better value for my services (I am contributing to the running of the unit in a positive way and am able to make positive contributions that are well received. I also feel I am able to push harder for things for myself and the team). I have really valued the ability to have confidential and open discussions and to receive constructive feedback, that at times challenged my way of thinking."  Michael McNally, Senior Manager, J Commerce

"I just wanted to say that, almost 2 years since working with you, I am still using the tools and techniques you taught me. I have had a difficult time recently, but have come through it and am still smiling. Thank you. Karen Gale, Director

"Tracey has inspired us individually and as a team.Through individual and team coaching , she has given us the confidence to really believe we can fulfil our true potential." Eileen Crabb , Head of Pinewood Residential Home

"Having run my own company for 4 years, Tracey gave me the confidence to set important priorities on both a personal and professional level, bringing about a clearer and more confident vision of myself and my role as an employer." GB, Company Director

"I've just had my appraisal and my Manager is delighted with the improvements in my oral and written communication. She cannot believe the "complete transformation" and is really pleased with me! Thank you Tracey!" M. D. Accountant

"Working 70 hours a week, and being married with 3 children meant that I was struggling to achieve a happy balance in my life. Even after the first few sessions with Tracey, I was more organised, less stressed and happier in all areas of my life. I would definitely recommend her!" Warren Johnson, Manager of Fitness First

"Tracey has allowed me to question how I operate, and she has definitely challenged my assumptions. She is highly intuitive, and I found working with her quite an experience! As a result, I feel enriched and highly motivated."  Senior Manager, Mourant

Switzerland

¨Tracey worked with us in Switzerland and was very good. I would have her back!¨ Stephen Skelley, Head of PWS Europe, HSBC PB

¨Working with Tracey was excellent and very motivating!¨ Thomas Frey, Head of GuyerzellerTrust, Zurich, Switzerland

If you are considering coaching for your teams in other jurisdictions, but concerned about the financial implications of travel,  it is possible to conduct coaching discussions via Skype. It is recommended that the intial set-up meeting and the first coaching session are held face-to-face, but subsequent discussions can be held remotely.
