with Angus is about working alongside you. I take time to understand what’s happening and what matters to you. Together, we explore what would make a meaningful difference and how to move towards it.
Work with Angus
The work takes different forms. It might be a conversation about your life or leadership, a team finding its way forward, or a gathering around a shared challenge. I’m also preparing to offer supervision: a space for practitioners to learn through reflection. What connects it all is time to focus on what matters and explore what becomes possible.
About
Based in Glasgow, I work internationally, bringing over fifteen years of coaching experience to my work with individuals, teams and organisations.
I’m trained and certified in individual, team and systems coaching, and currently completing my diploma with the Coaching Supervision Academy.
My work brings together coaching, facilitation and supervision.
Client Experience
Get in touch
If you’re curious about working together, I’d be glad to hear what’s on your mind. We can explore what you’re hoping for and whether working together feels right.
Coaching
A space to think clearly, find perspective and move forward.
One-to-one coaching with time to focus on what matters to you. A chance to consider the challenges and possibilities in your life and work, and explore what could make a meaningful difference.
The work
Some of the people I work with lead organisations. They use our sessions as a regular place to talk through decisions they’re weighing up, relationships, direction and their own leadership. It’s confidential, and it’s time that belongs to them.
Others come through their work: a new role, their own development, or a wish to grow in confidence or become more effective at leading, managing or communicating. Sometimes work has become stressful or overwhelming, and they want help finding a way through.
Some bring something more personal: a change they’ve been putting off, a feeling they can’t quite make sense of, or something difficult that needs time and attention. We start with what matters to you.
Client experience
Through thoughtful questions and well judged challenge, Angus helped me refocus on my values, understand my sense of purpose and start feeling excited about my career again.
How we begin
Before we begin, we’ll have a conversation about what you want to focus on and whether working together feels right. We’ll usually agree a series of sessions: time to understand what’s happening, try things out between sessions and reflect on what you learn.
In every case, the work is the same: a conversation that creates movement.
Facilitating Teams and Gatherings
Making possible what we can’t achieve alone.
I work with teams, organisations and networks to help people think and work together.
From team coaching to strategy days and international gatherings, we focus on what you want to make possible—and create the conditions for that to happen.
Teams and gatherings
That might mean working with a team or leadership group over a series of sessions, helping people understand one another better and work together on what they’re there to do.
Or it might mean designing and facilitating an away day, a strategy meeting or an international gathering where several organisations come together around a shared challenge.
Preparing the work
Much of the work happens before anyone enters the room. We take time to understand why you’re coming together, what would make a meaningful difference and the questions the group needs to work on.
That understanding shapes the design: enough structure to help people do good work, with room to respond to what happens on the day. I pay attention both to what the group needs to achieve and to the relationships that will help people carry the work forward.
Client experience
Angus has steered our team and coalitions through some very turbulent waters and challenging conversations, and we’ve emerged on the other side stronger, more motivated, and energized for the next chapter, with a clear picture of what comes next.
Supervision
A space to learn through reflection.
Coaching supervision offers practitioners time to step back and explore their work. Together, we reflect on your experiences, questions and relationships with clients, opening up fresh understanding and possibilities for your practice.
I’m preparing to offer supervision and currently completing my diploma with the Coaching Supervision Academy.
Exploring practice together
You bring the work itself: a question from a session, a relationship you’re finding difficult, an ethical uncertainty or a pattern you want to understand. We look at it together, with curiosity and attention to you, your client and the wider context.
My role is to work alongside you as a fellow practitioner, supporting learning through reflection. It isn’t an assessment of your performance or a mentoring relationship in which I provide the answers.
Why this matters to me
I came to supervision as a practitioner first.
After years of doing this work, I wanted somewhere to keep my practice fresh—to question familiar ways of working, reflect and keep learning.
That experience is shaping how I’m preparing to work alongside other practitioners.
Availability
I’m not yet offering supervision. If you’d like to hear more as this develops, you’re welcome to get in touch.

Chris, Coaching Client – Career
Working with Angus… was a really positive experience at a time when I needed support and a fresh perspective. I had lost my confidence, motivation and sense of direction, but he gave me the space to reflect and reconnect with what really mattered to me. He also helped me understand how I had reached that point in the first place, which gave me an insight into the patterns and choices that had shaped my situation.
Through thoughtful questions and well judged challenge, Angus helped me refocus on my values, understand my sense of purpose and start feeling excited about my career again. I came away from our sessions with much more understanding and direction. The work we did together has shaped the career (and life!) choices I have made since and given me the confidence to make them with real purpose.
Liz, Coaching Client – Personal
I discovered Angus through a friend as I needed help as I was experiencing profound grief following the death of my father. He understood exactly where I was and from the start of our coaching either online or in person he gently supported me encouraging me to reconnect with joy, purpose and intention.
Each session with Angus has real purpose and during our work he constantly checks in to ensure he’s delivering what you want or need.
Angus is gentle with your feelings, instinctive in his thoughts, and naturally himself, his wonderful sense of humour brings lightness , humanity and perspective and he has a knack of bringing it in at exactly the right time.
He understands that questions, feelings and difficulties do not always arise neatly within scheduled sessions. Being able to communicate with him between sessions is hugely helpful.
Angus brings huge emotional intelligence to his work, noticing what is said and unsaid, and responding with care, sensitivity and quiet wisdom which has also spread to support other areas of my life, improving my relationship and confidence.
I have been able to build my courage to make changes and am far braver with his support to grow a life which for me is driven by my values. Angus guided me to define these for myself.
Angus has changed my life profoundly for the better.
Alex Doukas, Facilitation Client
Angus brings a joy and intention to his meeting design and facilitation work in a way that I’ve never experienced with anyone else. I’ve enjoyed working with Angus as a thought partner and co-conspirator so much that I’ve tried to find every excuse to work with him again and again. Angus treats meeting design as both an art and a science, and his deliberate approach to design is more than worth the investment of time to design a powerful meeting experience. The incredible feedback from meeting participants indicates that the joyful spirit that Angus brings to the process translates to their experience, as well.
The way my engagement with Angus makes me feel personally is one thing – the results are another: Angus has steered our team and coalitions through some very turbulent waters and challenging conversations, and we’ve emerged on the other side stronger, more motivated, and energized for the next chapter, with a clear picture of what comes next. I can’t wait to work with Angus again.
Opportunity Green, Facilitation Client
We worked with Angus to plan an annual organisation-wide team day. The process was thoughtful and collaborative, with Angus leading us through three highly reflective and conversational sessions to work iteratively towards a final agenda. Angus sought to really tease out the intricacies of where we were as an organisation to design a day that celebrated success and looked towards the future. We appreciated Angus’s openness, his candour and his humour.
On the day itself, Angus’s approach meant our colleagues felt empowered to speak openly, and his sense for and ability to adapt to the prevailing energy in the room is a brilliant and understated skill.
