Helping clients to live and lead with greater authenticity, purpose, and well-being.

EXECUTIVE COACHING

As an executive coach, I work in two areas: helping people actualize more of their creativity and abilities as they develop as individuals; and helping manage the challenge of teams and political environments. While those two areas may seem quite distinct, they often relate to each other. My intention is to increase improve performance, relationships, and fulfillment.

PSYCHOTHERAPY

I work with individual adults in a process that may involve healing the scars of the past, managing stressors of today, and developing strengths for the future. I collaborate with my clients to create a customized program for them. Using an integrative structure, we may work with the conscious and unconscious; emotions and the body to help create greater well-being and vitality.

LEADERSHIP TRAINING

I facilitate teams and conduct workshops. The facilitations are highly customized. The workshops are interactive and targeted to equip participants with pragmatic skills in leadership and teamwork. They may involve simulations, group dynamics exercises, case studies, psychological tools, and even outdoor expeditions. Participants range from junior executives to CEOs and country governors.

“After three decades of experience, I have seen that we — people — really can change. My hope is to help clients make changes that lead to more fulfilling lives.”

I am sometimes asked how executive coaching, psychotherapy, and leadership training are connected. They involve psychologically developing ourselves to be more able to manage challenges, to be better at connecting to other people, and to live simultaneously with ease and vibrancy. While my work with senior leaders and competitive martial artists on high stakes events may look very different from my work with clients suffering from depression or past traumas, I've found the underlying challenges are related because they involve managing our minds in difficult situations.

HUMAN DEVELOPMENT SCALE

by Jonathan Marshall

The Human Development Scale helps to simplify the connection between executive coaching and psychotherapy.

Lower Scores

Overwhelmed: You may feel a lot of fear and distress. Getting "in the zone" may seem almost unattainable.

Middle Scores

Conventional: You manage day-to-day matters effectively but you have the sense that life could be more. You might find yourself saying, "I'm sure I could be more vibrantly alive and creative but I'm not there".

Higher Scores

Optimal: You feel a pervasive sweet stillness, an expansive sense of connection, and an easy awareness of the present. Your mind is creative, and in "flow".

ABOUT JONATHAN

Since childhood I have been fascinated by how we can transform ourselves to be happier while also becoming more effective in what we do. I now dovetail peak performance training with my background in clinical psychology. To many people's surprise, I'm a third-generation Singaporean and prior to becoming a full-time university professor, I worked as a janitor.
