Make Sense Of Work
Hello, I'm Cédric Boué.
I’m a professional career and leadership coach with a difference: I still practice what I preach.
My coaching draws from my experience in various industries and roles at senior level, and its foundation comes from the Co-Active model (more on this below).
Most importantly, I’ve been in your shoes.
When I first stepped up to a Leadership role, I was not prepared for what was to come.
I have tried and succeeded. I have tried and failed. But I have learnt immensely every step of the way.
I have learnt that self-awareness was key.
I have learnt how to get out of my own way.
And most of all I have learnt what it takes to make a real difference.
And I’m here to help you do the same.

Are you ready to become the LEADER you were always meant to be?
What is Coaching?
The ICF defines coaching as follows: “Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximise their personal and professional potential. Coaching is a distinct service and differs greatly from therapy, consulting, mentoring or training. Individuals who engage in a coaching relationship can expect to experience fresh perspectives on personal challenges and opportunities, enhanced thinking and decision making skills, enhanced interpersonal effectiveness, and increased confidence in carrying out their chosen work and life roles.”
What is Co-Active?
At its most basic, Co-Active means simply “being in action…together.” Or perhaps it might be more appropriate to say “being together…in action.”
Co-Active helps you stretch your sightline, get out of your comfort zone, and grow along the way. It’s a way to better understand your own journey—to help you design your own life’s quest by rediscovering your courage to be the one you want to be, in order to create what you want to create.
How I coach
I create a safe space for my clients to truly be themselves. I actively listen and articulate what is going on, with no judgement, and always holding your agenda. This means that, at times, I intrude and re-orient the conversation if I feel it is not serving you. I use my intuition and ask powerful questions to help you dive deep into what truly matters to you – often things you are not consciously aware of. I also use techniques such as visualisation and embodiment when I feel it can serve you. I always ask you to further the reflection after a session by giving you homework – exercises, inquiries, challenges – depending on what we’ve covered.
