The Coaching Conversation: Recent Episodes
Graham Whiley
In each weekly episode Executive Coach, Graham Whiley shares a range of topics experienced by business leaders across the globe with practical, real-world solutions to help you become more focused, more effective and happier in your life.
Today, we’re diving into what it really takes to build a culture of excellence—not just in results, but in the way people show up, collaborate, and grow together.
Graham's guest is Kyle McDowell, a bestselling author, speaker, and leadership coach whose work focuses on transforming toxic environments into thriving ones. Kyle is known for his powerful framework “The 10 WEs”, which helps leaders move from a culture of “me” to a culture of “we.”

Whether you’re leading a team, coaching others, or simply looking to raise your own standards, you’ll walk away with practical insights and inspiration from Kyle’s experience guiding leaders across industries.

Whilst high growth is clearly better than a failing business, don't underestimate the business challenges facing the leaders in a high-growth company. Do leaders understand why they are successful and how they can stay in control of what happens next?

The third sector is often described as the 'not-for-profit' sector such as charities and services. One of the things we often find is that coaching within the third sector is fundamentally different to coaching in the corporate sector. The relationships with key stakeholders are different and the measure of success is often not related to costs, but to the benefit of people and the organisation. If you're working within the Third Sector then this episode is a must-listen.

This week is something a little different for you! The coaching program from The Executive Mindset is based on the scientific work of CEO Coach, Shirzad Chamine, known commonly as PQ (Positive Intelligence Quotient) which measures the relative strength of your positive mental muscles versus the negative. Graham is once again joined by fellow coaches Tina Orlando and Mat Hayes - both of whom practice PQ coaching - to discuss why it's the best method to lead executive coaching sessions, and how it could help you to become a more effective leader.

Graham is once again joined by fellow coaches Tina Orlando from Tina Orlando Coaching, and Mat Hayes from Humble Associates to discuss Stress. Stress is the most common problem that we as coaches are asked to help business leaders to reduce. Working in organisations can often be a pressure cooker; whether it's organisational change, promotion, lack of work-life balance or simply trying to keep up - we are programmed to believe that leaders can work under a certain amount of stress - but how can you change how you respond to it and begin to tackle it?
