Ruth Paris

My particular expertise is supporting people to develop congruent leadership of self and others – in turn to mobilise energy, build rewarding relationships, develop conscious influence & generate sustainable achievement.

Clients variously describe my style as incisive, empathic yet challenging & technically rigorous.

In the early ’90s I co-founded a niche business consultancy developing leadership, team and individual performance, during which time I worked increasingly as an executive coach and mentor. In 2007 I was a founding partner of Coaching on Call International, which continues to entail significant experience in developing and managing coaching best practice for complex organisations worldwide.

I have an MA in Linguistics and Social Anthropology from Edinburgh University, am a qualified counsellor through Surrey University (1992), NLP Master Practitioner (1993), accredited coach (2001), graduate of the AC programme Applied Neuroscience for Executive Coaches (2014) and have a Diploma in Team Coaching from the Executive Coach Studio (2018). I am a Member of the Association for Coaching and Master Certified Coach with the International Coach Federation
