As a leading executive coach, Kate Lanz brings to her practice more than 12 years of international corporate experience as well as 11 years' experience as an executive coach. Kate has an impressive track record in working with business leaders to achieve high impact behavioural change.
Kate specialises in coaching teams, particularly Boards, as well as senior individuals. In 2002 Kate joined forces with Catherine Sandler and helped create a highly successful and fast-expanding practice. In March 2007 she became Executive Director of Sandler Lanz.
Kate's corporate career has centred on Blue Chip organisations, notably Guinness United Distillers and Vintners (Diageo). She successfully held senior roles in marketing, sales and general management. In the course of her international business experience, Kate has lived and worked in six countries, including Holland, Hungary, the US and 8 years in Latin America. She speaks Spanish, French and German and coaches clients across Europe as well as in the UK.
Kate's direct, robust, and compassionate coaching style draws on both her in-depth knowledge of business and her extensive psychological training. One of her trademarks as a coach is an ability to help clients to convert a new insight into action - fast. Knowing the commercial realities of business herself gives her the experience and skills to get right inside client issues and add value while her psychological expertise enables her to understand what may be going on 'below the surface'.
Kate's international background enables her to bring a particular expertise to cross-cultural issues and the performance coaching of virtual teams.
Kate tutors on a wide range of general and tailor-made executive programmes at INSEAD, France's leading business school, including the 'Advanced Management Programme' and 'Women Leading Change'.
Clients state that Kate's work has "...far exceeded expectations" and has
"created a noticeable change in attitude towards responsibility and accountability."
A recent Board client has commented that "...the coaching has truly changed the
way I think...the colleague relationship that I was really struggling with is now
the best one I have!"
Kate has coached leaders from entrepreneurs in start-ups to Board Directors of large multinationals. Her clients include Diageo, Hasbro Toys, ABN Amro, L'Oréal, Pfizer, John Lewis Partnership, IKEA, Ernst & Young and Time Warner and large not-for-profit organisations, to name but a few.
Kate's qualifications include a BA in Modern Languages, an MBA and a BSc in Psychology. She is a trained coach, NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) practitioner and an accredited user of several psychometric instruments, notably Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI ®), FIRO-B and the California Psychological Inventory. Kate is also highly experienced in using 360 degree feedback.
Kate was invited to join the panel of 50 coaches worldwide as a founder member of the WABC (World Wide Association of Business Coaches) and presented on the topic of team coaching at the 2007 Annual Conference in Vancouver. Kate is also an accredited member of APECS, the Association of Professional Executive Coaches and Supervisors.
