If You Only Had Time

This book isn’t about what you produce for your boss or your client, it’s about how you pilot yourself through your career, pick your way through the challenges that come your way and squeeze the most out of the chances you get to learn and develop.

Spending time (and money) with the right executive coach could be the best investment you’d ever make. Maybe that doesn’t fit into your programme today. But if you could be sitting with your coach right now, here’s what you’d be likely to learn.

Duncan Aldred trained as an executive coach with Meyler Campbell and works as a coach, based mainly in London. In his life before coaching, Duncan was a commercial lawyer specialising in fraud- and finance-related disputes. He enjoyed the strategy, teamwork and urgency of litigating under pressure and was privileged to see different working styles up close, from Ferrari’s F1 team to banking’s Fred Goodwin and many others in between.

For over 30 years, Duncan was a partner in a City law firm in London and, for part of that time, he held a management role. He first had his own coach over 20 years ago and was struck then by the unique benefits coaching could bring.
