Who we are

Experienced leaders. Qualified coaches. Passionate about impact.

 

Who We Are

At Purple Hat Coaching, we are a team of qualified coaches with extensive leadership experience in corporate environments. We’ve each held senior commercial roles — leading large, remote teams in HR, Sales, Finance, Operations, and Marketing. This means we understand the realities of business leadership and bring that real-world perspective to every coaching and development programme.

 

Our Credentials

Qualified Coaches

We are all formally qualified coaches, bringing depth, professionalism, and integrity to every engagement. Coaching isn’t just something we do — it’s a discipline we’ve studied, practiced, and continue to develop through supervision and CPD.

Accredited Practitioner

Our team is accredited in a range of leading psychometric and profiling tools, including:

  • Insights Discovery

  • Clarity4D

  • DISC

  • MBTI

  • Lumina Spark

  • ECR Emotional Intelligence Profiling

This breadth of accreditation means we can tailor our approach to the needs of each leader and team, choosing the right framework to spark awareness, deepen understanding, and unlock new ways of working.

Commercial Leadership Experience

Alongside our coaching expertise, we’ve each held senior corporate roles in HR, Sales, Finance, Operations, and Marketing, leading large, remote teams and navigating the realities of global business. This dual perspective — as both practitioners and operators — ensures our coaching is grounded, practical, and relevant.

 

Our Philosophy

We believe leadership development should be practical, inspiring, and enjoyable. Our work is:

  • Highly interactive and engaging — we create experiences that stick.

  • Grounded in business reality — we’ve been in the director’s seat ourselves.

  • Driven by values — we care deeply about the footprint we leave and the impact we create.

  • Fun and human — because the best learning happens when people feel energised.

  • Passionate — we love what we do, and it shows.

What Inspires Us

We take inspiration from the leaders and teams we work with, from the challenges they face, and from the possibilities of what they can achieve. Every engagement is a chance to help people see themselves differently, unlock potential, and transform performance.
