Xaviera reflects on the transformative effect of executive coaching on two occasions. Xaviera was recommended to have coaching by her line manager at Coca-Cola, to support her in making some significant career choices. Xaviera’s line manager, Shanna, had had coaching with Jessica and knew first hand the clarity Xaviera was likely to get from executive coaching. In 2025 when Xaviera’s line manager at Momentum discussed executive coaching to support her at a pivotal career moment, she reached out again. The coaching this time was to help her upgrade her leadership capability when she was being asked to straddle working on the business’ top strategic priority (a bid project) as well as heading up the Communications team.
