About Motion Learning
Astute Leadership Coaching for Professionals by Experienced, ICF Accredited Coaches
Our purpose at Motion is the same now as it was back in 2004 when the business was set up by Rachel Morris and Howard Rich in London: to enable all professionals to be the best in their chosen careers, positively impacting them as individuals, as well as the people they interact with and their organisations as a whole.
Our aim is always to work wholeheartedly in the service of our clients
In our coaching work with leaders, managers and individuals we are guided by our values; Courageous, Curious, Determined, Insightful and Open-minded. We draw upon each along with our experience and wisdom to support you in the achievement of your goals, acting as your independent and trusted confidants.
Nothing is off-the-shelf. Our goal is always to deliver a finely tuned and deeply caring leadership coaching service that will challenge you and provide consistently high results in a profoundly personal way.
Our expertise
We are established leadership coaching experts with a solid and loyal client base in London and internationally. We’ve developed our knowledge and experience across two decades, but are not fusty or old fashioned; rather we are disruptors in our approach. We are strong and confident and happy to break with some of the conventional leadership coaching rules. We won’t let the process get in the way of the results.
We use our knowledge of the science of leadership and, when appropriate, the insights from psychological tools to give you the clarity you are searching for as we work with you.
