    Episode 3: Denise Ni Cheallaigh

    I’m in conversation today with Denise Ni Cheallaigh.

    Denise has been the company owner of Ni Cheallaigh Consulting for the last 2½ yrs.  This builds on 20 years experience across a broad range of roles – consultancy, senior level project management and operations, leadership of large global teams of 6-700 people, working with global organisations such as Citi, JPMorgan and HSBC.  Pretty impressive!

    We first met in early 2020, when Denise signed up for the AoEC Practitioner Dip in Executive Coaching.

    I’m delighted to have some time today, in conversation with Denise.  Our topic today is – ‘Covid and Coaching’!!  Where is the business world today, given over a year of living in this pandemic?  And where does coaching fit in?I begin by asking Denise how life and work has been for her, since our first lockdown here in Ireland in March 2020….
