Leaders today are expected to be seen and heard. Mel offers a one on one coaching & mentoring program for leaders who want to expand their perspective and level up their communication.

Elevate your leadership to create real connection and sustained engagement.

Leaders today are expected to be seen and heard. They must communicate online and offline if they want to create real connections and sustained engagement. It's hard to do this if you are exhausted, overwhelmed or unhappy.

Mel’s Fully Connected coaching and mentoring program helps leaders become fully connected, so they can take back ownership of their life, reclaim their health, energise their workforce, communicate with conviction, and create cultures of belonging.

Her approach is tailored to suit your personal requirements.

Fully Connected Coaching & Mentoring

I mentor leaders who want to feel a stronger connection to self and to others.

If that’s you, then let’s talk about how I can help you become fully connected, so you can take back ownership of your life, reclaim your health, energise your workforce, communicate with conviction and create cultures of belonging.

My coaching & mentoring program will help you:

  • Become unstuck, regain control and thrive

  • Gain a deeper self-awareness and amplify your influence on those around you

  • Improve relationships so you can better motivate and influence a frequently disengaged workforce

  • Lead with greater impact and less stress

  • Communicate with conviction

  • Balance personal and professional goals

  • Obtain support and space to navigate through challenges and opportunities 

  • Tap into a greater potential, and gain perspective on your future.

Timing

This program runs for three or six months and is held over Zoom or at Mel’s office in Caloundra, Qld.

The Fully Connected coaching & mentoring program includes:

  • A questionnaire to be completed before we commence, to reflect personally on your own leadership and communication skills. We will look at where you are at, the gaps, and what you hope to achieve from this program.

  • One 75 minute initial discovery session to set goals and clear outcomes, based on your questionnaire

  • Monthly individual sessions of 60 minutes each to progress these. You will leave each session with a practical list of actions, and probably an exercise or two designed to broaden your thinking and deepen your learning.

  • Power calls to discuss urgent issues that may arise in-between sessions, as well as SOS support by text message – these might be used to refocus on what’s important, brainstorm a challenge, prepare for a difficult conversation

  • A personally curated selection of books for you to read and discuss, as well as relevant TED talks, podcasts and other material for continued learning and growth.

  • Completion process at the end of the engagement which centres the learnings, and sets you up for continued growth

  • A copy of my book Fully Connected


 

VIP Mentoring Day

Not everyone wants an ongoing mentoring program. You might have a tricky challenge that needs more urgent attention or prefer a one-off session on a specific area of your business.

My VIP mentoring day is for people who:

  • want some focussed direction and growth

  • prioritise taking the time to pause, check-in and reset

  • need support developing their strategic direction - personally or professionally

  • are seeking clarity on how they can live a fully connected life

  • like the idea of longer-term mentoring, but want answers NOW!

Timing

My VIP Mentoring Day is an in-person day at Caloundra, on the Sunshine Coast. I only offer these once a month, so I can fully focus on you with my undivided attention.

The VIP Mentoring day includes:

  • A full day together. To avoid distractions and have the benefits of working in a new environment, you come to my office at Caloundra (on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, 1.25 hours north of Brisbane).

  • Food and drinks throughout the day

  • A walk and/or swim at the beach (weather pending)

  • A pre-briefing session over Zoom to identify the core issues you want to work through on the day

  • Access to my 25+ years of expertise and a lifetime of experience to help you achieve the personal and professional strategic direction and growth you wish to take.

  • A follow-up session (over Zoom) approximately one month later

  • Three months of support to ask further questions

  • A copy of my book Fully Connected

One-off coaching session

Do you have a few key questions you want a bit of help with? Or do you need a general brainstorm about an idea? Not sure if an ongoing coaching program is for you and you want to check me out?

You can book in for a paid 90-minute brainstorm or strategy session, over a Zoom call to “pick my brain”.

You might want to talk about one (or more) of the following topics, or it might be something else!

  • Feedback on a communication / marketing / social media strategy

  • Navigating a difficult conversation – such as a performance review or getting a raise or how to resign!

  • Working through a leadership challenge

  • Quitting your job and starting your own business – what do I need to think about?

  • Managing your mojo, staying motivated and getting stuff done

Quick, relevant, and cost-effective. This session will help you move forward and let you see how impactful coaching can be.

what people are saying

  • “Working with Mel provided me with the discipline and structure to regularly communicate with clarity and empathy to my staff, members and industry colleagues. Our mentoring sessions gave me the space to reflect on what was needed and the opportunity to draw upon her deep expertise and enthusiasm. Mel shared simple and clear frameworks, communication and practical examples drawn from her wealth of experience. If you are looking to improve your digital presence, speak to Mel.”

    Aaron Newman CEO, Queensland Country Bank

  • “I have so many ideas bubbling around in my brain, and I’ve discovered the best way of organising my thoughts is by talking them through. One of the best people to grab for this type of chat (where you want your brain organised!) is Mel Kettle. She has a ton of experience with thought leadership, and every time I wrap up a conversation with her, I feel content with knowing what my next move should be. If you feel stuck, grab a chat with Mel, and you’ll walk away with confidence on what you need to progress.”

    Leanne Hughes Facilitator, Corporate Trainer, Podcast Host

  • “Mel is an outstanding business strategist, leader and mentor. I have greatly benefitted from her business coaching, helping me to achieve my goals in a more assertive and strategic manner. Mel is a guiding, positive light, with great business insights, wisdom and expertise. She’s also a joy to be around.”

    Nicole Carrington, Brisbane Fashion Festival Media Manager
