Crispin Garden-Webster Coaching and Consulting

Trusted Coaching & Consulting Partner

I coach managers to develop and strengthen their leadership confidence and influence. Effective leaders build effective teams , they have influence, impact and create value. ICF research shows that when people work with a coach, they had up to 40% increase in their self esteem and confidence. I have been a leader in a range of diverse organisations across different cultures. I know the impact leaders can have in an organisation. I’m an Organisational Psychologist and have extensive experience in selecting and developing leaders. I love helping leaders grow and see them deepen their influence.

We can support your people and capability value stream from your organisational design through your employment value proposition and talent strategy.

Personal Details

HR Consulting, Change Management, Leadership Development, Team Building, Executive Coaching, Writing, Human Resources (HR), and Strategic Planning

I help engineering and technical professionals who struggle with leadership and influence to confidently lead, influence, and build effective teams. Technical and Specialist leaders face a range of challenges balancing professional expertise with leading and developing teams. Sometimes they also encounter career inertia in their organisation. I help them with these challenges and to become effective leaders. For first time leaders, this might be finding and getting the most learning opportunities out of their early leadership roles. For senior leaders, it can sometimes be a lonely place leading other managers and navigating the management-governance boundary. Then there are macro challenges in diversity and inclusion, climate change, and the transformation to circular economies.

I also mentor leaders on human capital development, including EVP, Sourcing strategy, selection assessment, talent management, and organisational design.

I am a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), Fellow of the New Zealand Psychological Society and a Distinguished Fellow of the Human Resources Institute of New Zealand.
