Meet Emily
I am the owner of Polyphony Coaching. I have spent my entire career working with people and learning to understand what motivates them, helps them thrive and how our interactions with others impacts on everthing we do. As a military spouse, teacher, choir member, HR professional, mother, hockey player, I have developed a deep understanding of how we can watch, listen and sense what is going on around us and then take action based on what our senses tell us.
My skills are in being genuine, light-hearted, non-judgemental and curious. I will always come into contact with individuals and teams with humility, wanting to understand your perspective and help you find your own way, be that with those around you or on your own journey.
I am firmly of the belief that finding the right person to support your needs is essential. This is best done by connecting on a personal level, rather than by accreditations and past career. My expertise lies in working with individuals and teams, being able to get to grips with the environment you are working in quickly and listening to where you want to go. If this is an approach you can recognise, then I may be the right person to support you, so please do get in touch.
