Professional Coaching
Grounded in Experience

Realise Coaching is the coaching division of Grahame Robb Associates (GRA) — a leadership and development consultancy with 35 years of experience helping organisations and their people perform at their best. Our coaching offer brings the same rigour, tailored approach, and measurable focus that defines everything we do at GRA.

Whether you're a senior leader navigating complex organisational challenges, a manager stepping into a new role, or an organisation investing in the development of your graduate cohort, Realise Coaching provides professionally qualified coaches who match your specific needs — not just your job title.

The difference

What is coaching, and how is it different from training?

What-is-coaching

Coaching is not a training programme, and it is not mentoring. It's a structured, confidential, one-on-one process that helps individuals gain clarity, shift behaviour, and achieve defined goals — with the support of a professionally qualified coach who asks the right questions rather than providing the answers.

Where training delivers knowledge to a group, coaching works with individuals to achieve results. It addresses specific challenges, blockers, and personal ambitions, in a way that no off-the-shelf programme can replicate. The result is more durable behaviour change — and a measurable impact on performance.

Why choose Realise Coaching

The market for coaching is crowded. Here is what makes us different.

Finding a provider you can trust — one that will deliver genuine, lasting change rather than a series of pleasant conversations — is harder than it should be.

Life Mentoring
01

Qualified, experienced coaches

Our coaches are professionally accredited and bring real-world experience from high-level corporate roles across a range of industries. They are not generalists — they understand the pressures your people face.

Life Mentoring
02

The right match, every time

We do not simply assign the first available coach. We carry out chemistry calls, present relevant options, and ensure the fit is right before any engagement begins.

Life Mentoring
03

Truly tailored

Generic, one-size-fits-all coaching does not deliver results. Every engagement starts with a thorough discovery process to understand the individual, the challenge, and the desired outcome.

Life Mentoring
04

35 years of organisational expertise

Realise Coaching draws on the broader GRA heritage — decades of working with leaders, teams, and graduate cohorts across a wide range of sectors.

Life Mentoring
06

Confidential and non-biased

Our coaches operate with complete impartiality. Coachees can be open about challenges they may not feel able to raise internally — creating the psychological safety that makes real progress possible.

How it works

A clear, structured process — because good outcomes do not happen by accident.

01

Discovery call

We begin by understanding the individual context, challenges, and goals, as well as any organisational objectives the engagement needs to serve.

02

Coach matching & chemistry call

We identify the most suitable coaches from our network and facilitate a chemistry call so the coachee can make an informed choice. The right relationship is non-negotiable. 

03

Programme of sessions

Sessions are two hours long. We recommend a minimum of three sessions, with blocks of six over three months for deeper engagements. In-person, virtual, or a blend of both - you decide!

04

Defined actions & accountability

Each session produces clear actions and commitments. Progress is tracked across the engagement to ensure momentum is maintained and outcomes are measurable. 

05

Review and reporting

For organisationally commissioned engagements, we provide regular updates to ensure HR, L&D, or line management are kept appropriately informed.

What our clients achieve

The impact of effective coaching extends well beyond the individual.

Stronger leadership capability at every level

Improved team culture, communication, and collaboration

Better staff retention and reduced management burden

Greater self-awareness and emotional regulation
