Journeys of discovery
and growth

Overview

20 years ago, I decided to dedicate my professional life to ‘bringing humanity back into the workplace’ and established my leadership development and coaching company, Shine Management Development Ltd.

15 years’ senior experience in business prior to that decision had convinced me of two things:

1.         Caring leadership creates sustainable results

2.         To lead with care, leaders first have to lead themselves.

Those two simple truths are the drive behind my 20-year track record of guiding leaders on journeys of discovery and growth.
I work with leaders from a range of sectors including telecoms, pharmaceuticals, human and animal health care, manufacturing, consumer products and finance, coaching them to lead with personal insight, a sense of purpose and emotional intelligence.

02. Ikigai Coaching

You have a purpose in this world: your skills, your interests, your desires and your history have made you the perfect candidate for something. All you have to do is find it.

Are you living your cause or going through the motions? Are you making conscious choices or letting life happen? Maybe it’s time for you to start living intentionally.

Ikigai® is an elegant and unique tool to help you:

  • get in touch with your purpose

  • find your way

  • discover where you belong

  • get a personal roadmap to put yourself in the right place. 

“Get rid of the mess and at the core is your ikigai.”

— Héctor García

03. Psychometric Assessment

Without evidence, it’s hard to see yourself objectively. I use best-in-class measures of personality, motivations and derailment risks to build a picture of the qualities that shape your unique way of working.
I am qualified to administer and interpret:

  • Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI)

  • Hogan HPI, HDS (‘darkside’) and MVPI

  • High Performing Team Assessment (HPTA)

  • Hogan 360

  • MBTI Step 1 and Step 2

  • Strengthscope

  • FIRO-B

  • 16PF.

I hold the BPS Certificate of Competence in Occupational Testing Level A and B. I am a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and hold a current entry on the BPS Register of Qualifications in Test Use (RQTU).

If you're brave, committed and curious, you'll find your coaching relationship can be a powerful catalyst to becoming the person you most want to be. 

 

Testimonials

“Martin has a lovely style which means I never feel "coached", but instead I feel like I am having a great conversation with someone who is invested in me. Martin has encouraged me to change the way I think in order to feel more positive about my life and my career.”

— Finance Director

“There’s process and purpose there, and I know he’s working hard in the background, but it all comes across with empathy and ease. In my experience, it’s not how every coach operates, and that’s his gold dust”.

— Commercial Director

“Sometimes it’s not easy reflecting on who, what and where I am – but I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed the whole journey. And I do feel I’ve come a long way, and gained clarity and focus along the way, so thank you. Your patience and determination to hold me to account are both key to me having made that progress.”

— VP, Execution
