Phil Bolton is an International Coaching Federation Accredited Master Coach. After training as a forensic accountant and then working as an in-house coach at Deloitte in California, Phil moved back to his native UK and set out to become the go-to career coach in London. Then, after supporting hundreds of clients to take control of their career and find work they love, he started his second coaching business: supporting leaders and organisations that are pushing the boundaries, innovating and aiming to creating a better and more joyful world. Phil was also fundamental in Robbie’s (and many others’) development and learning as a coach through his now ‘resting’ coach training organisation, The Coaching School. Through that experience and others, he carries a wealth of experience in how to create amazing coaching experiences for clients on everything from holding boundaries with clients, to co-creating and partnership, to sales. In this episode, we talk about: - How he transitioned from forensic accountant to the go-to career coach in London, including how he created and developed that niche. - What he learned about how to structure a coaching engagement for someone changing careers from coaching hundreds and hundreds of people going through transition. - Why he left behind a full practice working with career changers to shift to working with MDs, CEOs and owners not just coaching them but supporting them across their businesses. - The ‘hard’ third or fourth coaching session: why his favourite bit of coaching engagements is the moment where clients doubt if the change they want is going to happen. - What Phil has learnt about sales from 13 years of running his businesses. - Why building a business that supports his lifestyle and self-care is fundamentally important to Phil.
