Professional and confidential
I’m Madeline Paterson, Director of Symmetry Coaching and an experienced Career Transition Coach.
I trained as a coach six years ago, when I was working at the Open University during a major restructure and redundancy programme. Working as an assessor at a Staff Development Centre, I had the chance to provide feedback and support to individuals involved in the restructure, helping them to identify and develop their strengths. It was eye-opening to realise just how much individuals can be unaware of their own capabilities and the opportunities available to them. And to appreciate how much we all value honest feedback and genuine support if we are trying something new. I believe that we are all much more than what we did in our last job!
“Incredibly supportive and non-judgemental. Madeline’s coaching has given me a lot of focus. I unreservedly her as a coach to enhance personal and professional development.” (Chris D, Unit Director)
“You are a strong, intuitive, skilled coach, very grounded in that role.” (Peter Bluckert, Managing Director, PB Coaching)
For my own part, I’ve worked in learning and development from my early days in business. After a degree in Communications, I taught English overseas, got myself a teaching qualification and then trained in computer-based learning design – joining one of London’s first interactive learning companies. I worked in media and IT services companies before moving into higher education, first working for UCL and then for the Open University as a Media Account Manager. Now, I work with people at a career crossroads – people like you who may be looking for a new direction, tackling major changes at work or leaving your organisation through redundancy. I support individuals from all walks of life, and I am accustomed to working at the most senior levels. I will commit to your goals, help you to make a new start in your life and career and provide value for money.
