coaching at the Centre for High Performance Development (CHPD). Nick takes on
the role from 14 June 2010 and will be leading the growth of the executive

executive coaching practice is a really exciting opportunity. The combination
of CHPD's research, assessment and development offerings alongside coaching
makes for a really compelling service for clients."
