Adrian McLean

Transformational Leadership Coach

I have over 20 years of experience in schools as a teacher, middle leader, senior leader, headteacher and now a member of a Multi Academy Trust executive leadership team.

My style centres around being transformational in approach, working collaboratively with clients to offer authentic support along with candid feedback. I like to focus on character and the virtues that are core to the individual flourishing in their role as a leader, life or mapping out their career. 

 

I seek to encourage clients in developing their collaborative skills, intrinsic motivation and self-esteem, whilst finding their purpose and providing them with accountability.
