Executive Coaching
It’s lonely at the top. Having a coach to empower, boost confidence and unlock leaders’ full potential is a core element to creating high performance and success. At Elemental CP, I believe every leader deserves the opportunity to be nurtured to grow and develop with the help and guidance of a trusted advisor. A coach who will provide a safe, confidential place for leaders to be vulnerable, reflect, and be challenged. Leaders do not need to be alone.
As the Principal Psychologist and Head Coach at Elemental CP, I leverage my post-graduate psychology qualifications, as well as my previous experience in C-Suite positions, to quickly establish a connection, and assist executives set meaningful goals that will have impact.
Kate’s key strength is developing leaders’ people and interpersonal skills. Kate creates a highly supportive relationship, where uncomfortable emotional reactions from interpersonal feedback, e.g. anger, confusion and disengagement, can be processed honestly and constructively enabling growth, rebuilding confidence and building capability.

Leadership Wellbeing Coaching
The complexity and range of demands on modern executives and leaders has been steadily increasing for many years.
Deloitte’s Insights 2022 survey of 1050 C-Suite leaders across US, UK, Canada and Australia revealed:
*86% of executives said they’d welcome some type of wellbeing support
*82% reported they would be more likely to stay with their company if it better supported their wellbeing
*70% said they are considering quitting their role for one that better supports their wellbeing
*40% reported feeling overwhelmed
*30% reported feeling lonely and
*26% indicated they were depressed.
Considering the above data, the rationale for investment in the wellbeing of executives and those in leadership roles becomes clear.
In addition to the above insights, Global Leadership Wellbeing Survey (GLWS) data reveals that from a group of 6,700+ leaders/executives who have completed the GLWS wellbeing assessment, 34% were either Struggling, Languishing or were Unwell. That’s over a third of all leaders! And that figure has increase by approximately 30% since before COVID. Meaning in the “post-COVID” context, only 13% of leaders assess they are thriving.
With Kate Connors at the helm, Elemental Coaching & Psychology has extensive experience designing and implementing world-class leadership wellbeing programs. Kate lead the design of Australia’s first enterprise-wide, executive leadership wellbeing program back in 2015 – and can assist your organisation to do the same.
