ABOUT RACHEL SCHOFIELD

So many organisations have highly capable people who struggle to communicate with clarity, confidence and authority They have the ideas - but don’t always land them They know the data - but don\'t know it\'s making them dull They’re ready for progression - but lack the presence to matchI help organisations nail non-vanilla communication - so their people can speak up, influence effectively, and perform at the level their roles demand.Drawing on two decades as a BBC News presenter, alongside my work as a qualified career development coach, I bring a unique combination of sharp messaging, storytelling expertise, and behavioural insight.The result?People who: communicate with clarity and authority present with confidence and credibility influence stakeholders effectively show up with real presence in high-stakes environments… and who: lead teams with greater impact - through clear communication, effective feedback, purposeful meetings and constructive dialogue act as credible ambassadors for your organisation - strengthening its voice, visibility and reputation through their communication and personal brand Pathologically curious (I nearly became a spy - yes, really, ask me over a drink sometime), I’m fascinated by what makes people convincing when they open their mouths … and how small shifts in communication can unlock massive impact.My work typically supports- leadership development programmes- high-potential talent- individuals stepping up into more senior roles- organisations looking to strengthen communication capability across the board WHO DO I WORK WITH? I work across multiple sectors and industries. My ideal clients are serious about their people’s career development … but not so serious they forget it’s meant to be fun. HOW DO I WORK? As a former journalist, my sessions are rigorously researched, creatively assembled and powerfully presented. I don\'t do boring. As a coach, I create a safe, playful and stretching space for clients to learn and experiment. I offer interactive workshops, group programmes, 1:1 coaching and keynote talks. If you\'re developing people who need to communicate with more clarity, confidence and clout - let’s talk. r•••••@rachelschofield.co.uk is fantastic - real presence, energy and clarity! Great content, valuable discussions, a lot of interesting points to take forwards and a clear structure to follow. She created an environment we all felt comfortable in.”
