Hello, I'm Charlotte
Hello, I’m Charlotte, a Leadership and Team coach and Founder of Your Future Space.
For more than a decade, I have developed strategies to help people, teams and brands get more of what they want.
Before coaching full-time, I worked as a Strategist within Media Agencies on big-name brands such as Sainsburys, Vodafone, IKEA, Compare the Market and Chanel.
Today I combine my strategic and coaching expertise to help people as they move into their first leadership positions.
I help new leaders feel confident in themselves and their leadership approach so they can build careers, teams and companies where people enjoy going to work.
I can honestly say that I love my job as a coach. At times I also loved working in the Comms Industry, but that hasn't always been the case.
Early on in my career, I reached burnout (at a time when this wasnt a well known term). I had been pushing myself too hard, taking on more and more work and only stopping when I was physically unable to carry on.
This wasn't unusual amongst my peers and was almost a part of the culture at the time. It felt inevitable, like a right of passage we all went through at some point working in an agency.
We were told to put the client's needs first and get on with it, so I did, staying late to finish presentations, saying yes to too many tasks, and ignoring my body's warning signs.
The leaders of my team did their best and I knew they cared about me but they were being pulled in all directions and putting out fires. They weren’t able to help me as they were barely keeping their heads above water.
This was when I first experienced coaching and it changed everything for me. I set boundaries, took ownership of my situation and made the changes I needed to get back to feeling happy to go to work.
This inspired me to train as a coach as I knew I wanted to help others in a similar position. I completed a full coaching qualification accredited by the Association for Coaching and the ICF alongside an additional qualification in ‘Coaching as a Leader’.
I set up my business in early 2021 and now work with people in the comms industry to develop their leadership skills so that they can achieve their career ambitions and lead thriving teams without reaching burnout, so they can enjoy going to work.
I believe that with the right support and training, anyone can be a great leader. I am on a mission to help new leaders start their leadership journey on the right foot, so that they feel confident when leading, taking control of their careers and build thriving teams that everyone wants to be a part of.
