ABOUT US

WHY EXECUTIVE INTERVIEW COACHING

At senior level, a strong track record is only part of the interview. You also need to explain how your experience relates to the organisation, the role and the decisions ahead.

​

Richard Elstone combines confidential interview coaching with ongoing work in executive search. His preparation draws on direct experience assessing senior candidates and advising boards, CEOs and executive teams on appointments.

​

Whether you are seeking promotion, moving organisations or pursuing a board appointment, the focus is on helping you select relevant examples, explain your contribution and respond thoughtfully to challenging questions.

​

We have a unique view into boards and what CEOs are looking for that most don’t get to see.

Support for your next leadership move

You may have an interview approaching, be considering your next executive move or be preparing for board opportunities. Choose focused interview preparation or broader support with career direction and positioning.
