“Did you know when you asked that particular closed question, you stopped the caller from exploring important questions?”
“When you made that assumption, did you realise that it wasn’t true?”

Even after 16 years as a listening volunteer on a suicide crisis line, I’m still learning how to truly hear someone.
Here’s the thing: We all have blind spots. Even the most experienced among us. Especially the most experienced among us.
The best project leaders, architects, and delivery directors know this truth: technical excellence isn’t enough.
The real magic happens in the spaces between the words, in the moments of genuine connection, in the ability to see what others miss.
That’s why having a coach isn’t a sign of weakness – it’s a mark of commitment.
Commitment to being better.
Commitment to helping others be better.
Commitment to seeing what we can’t see on our own.
If you’re leading projects and people, and you’re ready to discover your blind spots – not to eliminate them, but to transform them into opportunities for growth – let’s talk.
