ICF-ACCREDITED COACHING FOR LEADERS

About Resonate

Based in Hertfordshire, Resonate provides professionally-accredited leadership coaching for organisations, business owners and individuals.

Working together

  • Flexible and intuitive

    We always make sure our coaching is flexible to the individuals we’re working with on any given day. Although structured, we’ll adapt each session to suit the needs that show up each time we meet. No two sessions are the same!

  • Can-do, will-do

    We love working with people who are ready to turn up and try. If you want to make changes but don’t know quite how, you’re in the right place. If you don’t feel ready to take those next steps yet, we’re probably not the right choice for you yet.

  • Professional standards

    We have an absolute belief in the importance of professional standards for coaches. That’s why we only work with the 2% of coaches globally who are ICF-accredited, and why we invest in regular supervision for ourselves as professionals.

The two strands of our work

  • Resonate Leadership

    1:1 and team coaching for organisations and teams.

  • Resonate Women

    Flexible support for women at all levels of leadership.

MEET OUR FOUNDER, RUTH WOOD

From working on the shop floor to meeting world leaders

Ruth is an ICF-accredited coach who works with executives, leaders and teams.

Like many of us, her working life started with a weekend job in a shop as a teenager. That job laid the foundations of hard work and drive that have stayed with her throughout her career.

That career went on to take in 16 years in diplomacy and policy at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, where she met world leaders and oligarchs, dined with royalty and travelled the world. She’s worked with executive boards to develop visions and strategies and has led teams large and small, high performing and underperforming.

But careers aren’t just about what happens ‘in the office’.

Alongside her day job, Ruth has navigated the challenges of balancing long-term health needs and family life with everything else, coming (at times) close to burnout.

It’s this experience, along with her love of working with and striving to understand people, which makes her so passionate about resilient, warm-hearted leadership and helping people to maintain high performance for the long term.

Ruth is insightful and highly perceptive which has enabled her to challenge me whilst guiding me with great compassion, warmth and lots of encouragement. Working with Ruth has been a hugely enjoyable and transformative experience.
