Ep 2: Ginny Baillie: A Listening Life


Listen Later

I’m pleased to share my conversation with fellow Executive Coach Ginny Baillie. She’s one of Europe’s first Master Certified Coaches. With over 20 years’ experience as a full-time, qualified, professional coach and culture consultant, Ginny has coached over 2000 individuals, designed over 500 coaching programmes and mentored over 100 coaches. She’s played with having several business structures, from freelance solo, to early tech platforms and learned stacks of lessons on the way.

 

With a background in property and stockbroking Ginny always gives us a masterclass in authenticity, with a forthright and clear style which I appreciate so much. She talks straight; says things as they are. “You need to love the business of coaching as much as you love coaching” she says, as she generously shares experiences, tips and things to avoid.

 

Ginny tells the story of a business she grew with a friend, full of ideas and excitement – only to find it wasn’t actually cracking the market, and needed to stop. And she has some rich advice for coaches feeling lost for what to do next.

 

Ginny is a seasoned coach with a client base that spans pharma, finance, logistics ,tech, publishing, media, health and education and she now leads Drum, which brings groups of leaders together in collaborative coaching conversations. We hope our chat sparks some new thoughts for you in your coaching business. Please rate and subscribe to the podcast, to help more coaches find us too.
