Annette Gray Consulting
I bring over 25 years’ experience as a facilitator, consultant, leadership coach and speaker, developing leaders at all levels to use a coaching approach in all their conversations. I am passionate about coaching and applying Solution Focus approaches in everyday interactions with experience in many industry sectors, including – Construction, Education, Pharmaceutical, Financial Services and Government. I have been in learning and development and organisational development roles in the finance sector where I led successful culture wide programs for major firms. I have also worked in a consulting capacity for the last 16 years with a global Coaching Training organisation.
I enjoy getting better at my coaching (even after 25 years) and have been described as a masterful and insightful coach and facilitator. My passion is Solution Focus (an agile way of working but so much more), and I use Strength based and Positive Psychology approaches to help clients find the direct route to change and achieve results fast.

Creating one team that respects one another and enjoys coming to work — Business unit culture change at professional services firm
Annette Gray from Growth Coaching International was asked to help a management team in a professional services firm in Sydney Australia during 2011 change their culture by becoming more respectful of their colleagues and a happier place to work. The management team of 12 professional high achievers made up this team. They were very capable in their own right, however the team was behaving in a “dysfunctional and competitive way” as described by its leader.
