J.P. Marshall Coaching provides executive coaching, career coaching, and job interview coaching from a UK base, shaped by an international background.

We are an Associate of Jenny Rogers Coaching, one of the leading coaching and coaching training providers in the UK. Our clients include entrepreneurs and influential figures from a variety of sectors, particularly the media and higher education. They bring issues involving leadership style, career, management (and being managed), as well as questions about how to have a rich and rewarding life alongside a demanding job.

 

Whether the coaching is individual or sponsored, what we always want and strive to do is to make a difference. We help our clients clarify what outcomes they want and help them to take practical, but theoretically informed, steps to get it. We do this first by listening, then by carefully tailoring a goal-focused coaching programme that is deeply attentive to, and respectful of, the person at the coaching table.

Marshall Coaching, has spent most of his career to date in the publishing sector in the USA and the UK, where he has held a variety of roles in sales, marketing, editorial, team and senior management. As a publisher, Jaime has worked with global authorities in their fields including Nobel Prize winners. His last corporate role was Managing Director of Palgrave Macmillan, a major international publisher.

  • When I saw Jaime, I was at an important crossroads in my life because I had just sold my digital agency to an global group and needed help thinking through my new options in work and life. What was striking about the coaching was that rather than trying to tell me what to do based on my situation, Jaime helped me to make my own decisions — tough decisions — but in a much more informed and clear-headed way. Jaime has a quiet authority, a firmness, that was a very positive thing for me. It wasn’t at all ‘wishy-washy’, and it suited my style.

  • I worked with Jaime over the course of about a year, and it was one of the most consequential things I’ve ever done. I went for coaching mainly because I wanted to become more interesting, more compelling, in group settings like meetings and social events. What took me by surprise once we started getting into things is that we ended up wrestling with some very sensitive personal issues, such as my relationship with my wife (which I raised). I had not realised what a profound connection there was between what was going on at home and what was happening with my business life and leadership abilities. By working through a lot of these issues, professional and personal, I was able to see how I could be my best creative self and have the impact I wanted. Jaime led our weekly explorations with a deft hand - subtle and full of empathetic listening - yet knew when to jump in with a searing insight (which happened often). The experience quite literally changed me, and my life, for the better.

  • Forever thankful to Jaime, his patience, open-handed humanity, and his skill in letting in the light during some very dark times for me.

    ---Senior architect and consultancy director

  • Jaime’s coaching really helped me to focus on my career goals and identify my core personality traits and the values by which I am motivated. This was an approach to career development I have never encountered before and despite the discomfort it sometimes caused, it was a brilliant way to pinpoint the roles and opportunities that really inspired me and were the right ‘fit’. Plus, the process was made much easier by Jaime’s patience, kindness and humour. I now have the self-confidence to identify and pursue the jobs that are authentic to my beliefs, and I am much clearer about what I need from a role rather than concentrating solely on an employer’s requirements.
