Executive Team Coaching

I coach executive teams, helping them work together effectively to drive growth, navigate change and elevate their performance.

The leadership teams I coach are:

Navigating increasing complexity and intense pressure as they work to unlock organic growth and scale at pace

..mostly at private equity-backed companies.

Recent clients include*:

*This list includes businesses I have coached in my roles as an associate at Let’s Go and Mavericks Unlimited.

The types of issues and challenges I have helped these and other clients work through include:

Shifting strategy and mindset to focus on growth following an extended period of retrenchment and restructuring

Leveling as a team, working through conflicting priorities and personalities to build trust, establish new ways of working, and elevate performance

Integrating multiple “rolled up” startups, and their founders, into a cohesive business aligned around a shared vision and strategy

Forging a newly assembled and diverse group of talented leaders into a team united by a shared sense of mission

My approach is grounded in the Let’s Go Model and informed by my experiences as a founder and as an innovation consultant, along with more broadly through my life and career (read about all of that here).

Whilst the specific context and challenges of every coaching relationship are unique, my core approach remains constant.

I help exec teams find their way of being Not Neutral, drawing on a range of tools and approaches that enable them to:

Face Reality

 Facilitating an honest conversation in order to explore team strengths and blindspots, review effectiveness and build a true picture of where they are today - both what to celebrate and what needs attention.

Choose What They Are For

Creating a shared vision of success for the team, articulating both what they are working towards (e.g. vision, mission, strategy) and how they will work together (e.g. team rhythms, rituals and ways of working).

Establish Powerful Practices

Putting new ways of doing and being into practice, building new habits, translating intention into sustainable action.

What Do I Offer?

Every client engagement is tailored to the specific needs of the team and their business context, typically in partnership with the CEO and Chief People Officer. Offerings include:

    “I worked with Phil Dorman at Artlogic, where he facilitated our quarterly executive offsites using his Let's Go framework. Phil is an exceptional facilitator - empathetic, engaging, and skilled at creating the conditions for honest, productive conversations at the leadership level.

    His practical tools made strategic alignment genuinely straightforward, and he wasn't afraid to hold the room accountable. He adjusted his style based on feedback from me and the team, which made the partnership feel truly collaborative.

    The standout moment: Phil led a two-day intensive that left us more aligned than we'd been in years - and for the first time, our company kickoff was scheduled for the first week of January rather than the last.

    If you're looking for a facilitator who combines real warmth with professional rigour, Phil is the person I'd call first.”
