Neville is a certified Tavistock executive coach, specializing in the systems psychodynamic method of coaching. Neville’s focus in coaching is on helping leaders achieve their potential in a real and authentic way and his special interest is in assisting leaders with career shifts and transitions (moving into, up and through an organisation).  

While Neville’s approach to executive coaching is eclectic and based on the needs of each client, he favours what is called the systems psychodynamic approach to coaching which essentially means working with the entire system and working below the surface. He tries to understand the role the person plays in the organisation and the dynamic interplay between the individual leader or manager, his/her role and the organizational context in which they work, at both an obvious and a hidden level. The purpose is to forge new meanings and understandings and achieve greater clarity about oneself, one’s work and the organisation. This new understanding, if applied and practised, translates into more authentic interactions and greater effectiveness in one’s role, benefitting both the individual and the organisation.

Neville likes to think of himself as a “thinking partner” to business leaders, assisting them to effectively take up their leadership roles with meaning, purpose and authenticity. He has been particularly successful in helping leaders improve their EQ in managing relationships at work and has a special interest in helping leaders navigate career transitions.
