Tom coaches in English, Greek, and French. This allows him to work with individuals and organisations across international contexts without language being a barrier to depth or nuance.

Tom brings a unique combination of engineering expertise and commercial experience, which means he understands both systems and people. He has navigated multiple industries, countries, and organisational stages, giving him practical insight into what drives sustainable growth. Coaching with Tom is a safe, reflective space where you co-create clear, actionable paths forward — not a prescriptive advice session.

It depends on your goals. A standard first programme typically consists of six one-hour sessions held bi-weekly, spanning approximately three months. Some clients achieve meaningful clarity and results in fewer sessions; others choose ongoing programmes for sustained development. Together, you and Tom co-create a plan that fits your specific needs and objectives.

Coaching investment is tailored to your programme. The format, frequency, and focus of your engagement are agreed together during the first call, and pricing reflects that. To discuss what a programme looks like for your situation, book a first call.

The first step is a relaxed introductory call where you discuss your goals, expectations, and whether coaching with Tom feels like the right fit. There is no obligation. If you both decide to move forward, you co-create a plan covering format, frequency, and focus — whether that is individual sessions or a programme for your team or organisation.

Yes. Tom works with teams, leadership groups, and organisations of all sizes. Services for organisations include team coaching, leadership development programmes, keynotes, workshops, and sales training programmes. External coaching provides an unbiased perspective and helps develop talent while fostering a culture of growth and accountability.

Coaching is not about being told what to do. In coaching, you are in the driver's seat. Tom's role is to ask powerful questions, create space for honest reflection, and help you arrive at your own solutions. Where consulting delivers answers and mentoring shares experience, coaching builds your own capacity to think clearly, decide confidently, and act with intention. That said, when practical guidance is genuinely useful, Tom provides it — without being prescriptive.

Book a first call — it is a relaxed conversation with no commitment required. You discuss your goals, ask any questions you have, and decide together whether coaching is the right next step.
