You are not optimising the existing system.
You are creating what comes next.
One-to-one. For the innovative leader, purpose-driven change-maker & future-focused system shifter - wanting to go to their next level of impact.
Your path is your own.
Β
As an innovator, change-maker and system shifter you are the one that is off-piste - creating withΒ purpose what doesn't exist yet and giving form to the new future you want to see.
But being the one who is trying to be purpose-led, bring new ideas, embed new ways and lead to new horizons is hard - and let's be honest often lonely.
You want to have a real impact. Β But you constantly face systems thatΒ want to keep doing what they have always done. Β EnvironmentsΒ that do not fully recognise the value that you bring. Β And where the people resist change or even attack you.
And that limitsΒ the impact that you have. Β It leaves you exhausted and disillusioned. Β ItΒ affects your confidence. Β And it stops you from bringing the transformation.

Why this is different.
Β
Most leadership is about leading and performing well within the status quo. And that is what most leadership coaching focuses on.
But you are different.
Β
You are about purpose and impact. Β You are the one charting new paths beyond what has always been done - through the unknown, uncertain and unstable context we are actually in. You are here to operate differently in your self, your work and your leadership.
That is why you need a different kind of support.
From someone who is purpose-driven and knows what it is like to be the one constantly on the leading edge. The pioneer. The innovator. The change-maker. The system shifter.
What this is.
Β
At its core, The Advisory is for those who are purpose-drivenΒ and are already in the trenches leading for a new future - and want to go to their next level of impact.
It is theΒ different kind of support you need to do that.
This is one-to-one work with LouiseΒ - for innovative leaders, purpose-driven change-makers and future-focused system shifters committed to shapingΒ what comes next.
Β
Not managing what already exists more efficiently.
Writing the chapters that are yet to come.

A sounding board for the leading edge.
Β
A long time ago, not long after my own career change out of law, I read a book that was pivotal for me. It was about how in the court of the king, the fool played an essential role.
Through his words, he was the only one who could tell the king the truth about what he was actually creating. So that he could take ownership of it, see beyond his blind spots, and from there, build something new and better.
Β
That sums up the essence of what I do.

We partner together for a new future.
Β
I am your partner to go to your next level of impact. Β So that you can lead toΒ the new future you want to see next - both personally and collectively.
Part sparring partner to catalyse actual new forward movement. Part real life mentorΒ who has lived most of my life off-piste bringing about meaningful change. Β Part wise changemaker coach who has been catalysing transformation for individuals, groups and organisations - to go to their next levelΒ since 2001. Β
My style is a mix of inspiring practical new possibility, grounded deep transformation and sharp intuitive insight.
I have spent 30Β years being the purpose-led one on the leading edge myself, makingΒ change in organisations - not just in theory, but in practice. And then inΒ the trenches, training, mentoring and coaching change-makers and innovatorsΒ - showing the way, making new maps and architecting new futures.
As a lawyer who made a meaningful transition. As an innovative founder building what didn't yet exist at the time. As a purpose-driven changemaker overcoming resistance and makingΒ new vision real.
As a senior advisor to leaders and organisations navigating transitions, facing disruption and bridging to new systems.
So when we work together, you are not getting put in a box built for the old system. .
You are getting a guide to build beyond it - without losing yourself along the way.

What my past clients say:
I have worked, hired and received coaching with / from Louise Le Gat for over ten years.
'Initially, she worked with our department to create a senior leadership program that was used throughout the Nestle world with great success. In conjunction Louise provided coaching to each of the leadership team which not only helped the individual go to their next level but also the organization we supported.
I also hired Louise to help develop our young and future leaders in the NCE College in resilience, emotional intelligence and leading change. The feedback by all participants was how she opens up so many new ways of thinking through her coaching and ability to integrate the head, heart and strong intuition.
My personal experience has been one that will last a lifetime. She has been more than a coach but has helped me become a true transformation agent. Louise has known exactly how and when to apply coaching and mentoring. So that I could change to become a leader I can be proud of. I would hire Louise again and again as I truly believe in her ability to inspire new possibilities and bring lasting transformation.'

This is for the innovative leaders and purpose-driven change-makers already committed to leading for a new future.
You have already proven yourself. You are not new to this. What you are looking for is a different kind of support - because most leadership coaching was built for leading within the status quo, and you are here to lead beyond it.
We start with an introductory conversation - to see if we are a good fit, and to get clear on what you need.
From there, we build your objectives and the form our work together will take.
We agree the package and length of time that fits what you are working toward.
