Jo Bishop

I bring over twenty years’ global multi sector experience as a professional learning and development consultant. As an executive, career ,team and professional medical coach I work with leaders and teams to show up as their best authentic selves, with skill.

My approach is grounded in positive psychology, blending practical skills with emotional intelligence and somatic work. I believe sustainable performance comes not just from goals and strategy—but from kindness, courage, and connection. I want to help make the corporate world a bit kinder—kinder to ourselves and to each other. I feel very privileged to do this work, I get to see people grow, appear lighter, and show up with solutions and skills. In life and leadership, one of the most important relationships is the one we have with ourselves.

I work with leaders, teams, and individuals to build performance through compassion, clarity, and courageous conversations. Whether you’re navigating the complexities of executive leadership, making big career decisions, or facing the emotional and professional impact of a medical diagnosis, our work together focusses on what good looks like for you right now.

In addition to coaching, I design, lead and program manage development interventions across a range of industries including, Travel, FinTech, EdTech, Ftse 100, BioTech, Financial Services and Business Schools. Some recent projects include; Global Women in Leadership programme, 1-1 coaching senior female leaders and coaching senior teams to navigate conflict and complexity.
