Hello! My name is Aideen and I am the Founder of FlexiSmart Coaching & Training. I offer coaching, training and consultancy to organisations invested in their teams’ development, potential, and wellbeing.
We are living in an era of constant change. That brings exhaustion and overwhelm. It can be difficult to gain clarity, perspective and energy to move through this and live with intention and purpose. Our wellbeing and potential at work are both challenged as we face this accelerating change and as we face particular obstacles at different stages of live and career. This also includes our leaders and managers.
Flexismart offers coaching, guidance and training to help you navigate this difficult timer. We provide training and consultancy on how to lead strategic wellbeing in the workplace, managing your own wellbeing (handling stress management and burnout etc.), managing your internal career development and outplacement consultancy support on exit.
As an intuitive and outcomes-based coach and trainer, I also work with individuals in career transition or challenges to rediscover their purpose and intention, reconnect with who they really are at this time, overcome obstacles and move forward with a clear action plan. The focus is on longer-term behaviour change and greater career clarity and wellness.
I also collaborate with several trusted associates on projects. For more information on my associates and partnerships please click here. More about my background below.
Described by my clients as:
“an intuitive coach with the natural ability to establish connections and pathways for clients and help them to gain clarity which is impactful yet it’s achieved in a very natural way“.
“Aideen really considers the client, their needs, where they’re at and what’s ahead for them – this is achieved through a lovely balance of holistic support and an expectation on the client to take accountability and action“.
“an innate ability to help connect individuals to their values to support decision-making – this had a significant impact for me and it has really helped me to decide what’s right for me now while also being open to future opportunities. I’m very clear about why I’m doing what I’m doing now!“
My original background is in HR, recruitment and training. I am a qualified behavioural assessor and practitioner in several BPS-accredited psychometrics that I continue to leverage within my business. I continue to work as an Interview Coach part-time and offer competency-based interview training for individuals and act as an external interviewer for organisations in both private and public sectors. A trusted partner to Heads of Department/CEOs for over 25 years I have loved playing my part in driving both individual and organisational performance and culture change. I had the privilege of working with several industry leaders in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, IT, cybersecurity, engineering, educational and environmental health & safety. Qualified in Human Resources Management (Chartered CIPD level), Sociology, and a Post Graduate Diploma in Leadership in Health & Wellbeing in the Workplace. I have also completed further studies in Ireland and the US in areas to include positive intelligence, positive psychology, happiness, emotional intelligence and empathy and am a qualified NLP practitioner. Skills and knowledge I enjoy sharing with my clients as part of my practice.
