Coaching with Steve

A Partnership for Growth, Insight & Purposeful Change

Steve Barrett

Leadership, Organisation, and Retirement Coach

A Coach Whoโ€™s Walked the Path of Change

With over 15 years of experience coaching and leading transformative change across prominent WA organisations, I bring a grounded and strategic approach to every coaching partnership.

My own leadership journey and life transitions, including relocating from the Perth to Busselton and redefining work-life balance, have deepened my understanding of what it takes to navigate uncertainty with clarity, purpose, and courage.

Whether youโ€™re:

โœ… A leader navigating complex change

โœ… Part of a leadership team seeking greater cohesion

โœ… A decision-maker looking to evolve culture from within

Coaching offers a confidential space to reflect, realign, and grow, both personally and professionally.

Not a Fix โ€” A Partnership for Inside-Out Growth

Coaching isnโ€™t about fixing or changing who you are.

Itโ€™s about uncovering the clarity, capacity, and leadership already within you.

Through our work together, we will:

๐Ÿ”น Explore your context with openness and curiosity.

๐Ÿ”น Surface fresh insights that shift long-held patterns and perspectives.

๐Ÿ”น Tap into the inner resources you already hold to lead with confidence, connection, and impact.

๐Ÿ” Curious how this aligns with vertical development?

Approach & Experience

Iโ€™ve had the privilege of coaching leaders and teams across:

WA Police, Fortescue, Synergy, Pfizer, RAC, and Curtin University.

These partnerships have supported leaders to:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Lead with presence through complexity.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Navigate organisational transformation.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Strengthen alignment and trust.

As an ICF-accredited coach (PCC), trained in systemic, developmental, and relational approaches, I tailor each engagement to meet you where you are.

Whether youโ€™re deepening your leadership, evolving team dynamics, or leading change across an organisation, our partnership will centre on real conversations and purposeful growth.

What Clients Say

๐Ÿ’ฌย โ€œI engaged Steve to help explore how I was feeling and how I connect with others. His coaching style is unique as it avoids quick-fix solutions and instead fosters deeper, lasting change. Through his patient, proactive, and supportive approach, along with the practical techniques he shared, Iโ€™ve experienced a genuine and sustainable shift in both myself and my relationships. Iโ€™d strongly recommend working with Steve.โ€

โ€”ย Kev

๐Ÿ’ฌย โ€œThe tools Steve gave me in our sessions instilled a sense of clarity and confidence to move forward in my career. The professional environment Steve provided was completely non-judgmental and his natural empathy made me feel comfortable to challenge my negative mindset. Thanks for your help Steve!โ€

โ€” Zoe

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œJust finished writing up my notes and actions from the coaching session with Steve. Man, he is good. I know I play in it as well, but he helped me discover a core blocker that has been with me for many yearsโ€ฆ like a frikken shrink! Itโ€™s amazing how I had a topic planned with a stretch goal/super long-term vision as a backup, and we went straight for the jugular of the stretch goal. It has shaken and inspired me!โ€

โ€” Dale

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œYou have been such an amazing coach and mentor to me, your guidance and support have made a significant difference in my life, both on and off the field.โ€

Take the First Step

Our first meeting is a no-pressure opportunity to:

โœ… Get to know each other and see if thereโ€™s alignment in working together.

โœ… Clarify what you want to achieve through coaching.

โœ… Gain a clear understanding of the coaching approach and what to expect.

From there, we can explore what support might serve you best, whether thatโ€™s one-on-one coaching, team development, or a tailored organisational engagement.
