Work With Me
Work become deadly dull & meaningless for you?
Unappreciated, unfillfilled, disheartened & disillusioned?
Or simply outgrown a job you used to feel excited about?
I'm Andrew Horder, and that was me at the end of my corporate career, feeling like I had no alternative to baling out to start from scratch. Now I've done the heavy lifting, so you can have better choices!
Wake Up Your Potential!
My signature 12-month individual programme, a mix of assessment, evaluation, Deep Dive and ongoing coaching, that shows you how to feel alive & alight, totally in flow, on purpose and completely re-energized in your work (and life in general).
Your Core Being VIP Day
If you're ready to dive in and dive deep, to spend a whole day understanding who you are when you're being your best in work, in yourself, and in life in general, and then explore how to find more ways to do that, this day is for you!
Regular Coaching
That's regular in terms of timing (monthly, weekly, quarterly), not normality! Be prepared to be challenged, to move from your comfort zone into a zone of personal and professional growth, to have some fun, and above all to gain the courage to commit to the potential you're willing to own.
Talent Dynamics Profile & Debrief

Team Dynamics
Using the Talent Dynamics profiling system, reveal the preferred working style for each team member and how each can most easily help, and hinder, the team as a whole. Includes individual debrief meetings and a full team debrief to foster enhanced understanding and collaboration.

I’m on a mission to help you find the joy in your work that you deserve.
After suffering burn-out in my corporate career, I retrained as a professional coach and now combine that expertise with my decades of workplace experience to help you get clarity on your unique value and what you really want from your work.
So you can get back to being inspired, energised and engaged in work you really love to do.
Andrew Horder - Encouraging Potential
Why I love what I do
Life’s too short for work not to be fun, and we perform so much better when it’s enjoyable.
So when you get to enjoy your work, everybody wins!
Doing what I do best
Though I didn't realise it at the time, my successes throughout my career had always come from coaching people to step into their potential.
Now it's what I do for a living!
Helping great people
I work with people like you with great ideas and brilliant skills, but who have lost sight of what they can achieve for the world and for themselves.
I get to wake up that potential!
Making a happier world!
When work is inspiring, the whole of life becomes so much more beautiful. The world needs more people like you doing great work that matters.
I love playing a part in that!
"... an astounding sense of 'rightness' within me!"
... one of the most grounding and satisfying processes I've done in a long time. I suspect the effects of it will stay with me for a life-time. ... I cannot recommend doing this process enough as the results will likely act a guide for the rest of your life.

Wake Up Your Potential!
This is my signature 12 month individual programme, bringing you clarity on the work you'd really love to be doing so you really can be inspired, energised, and 100% engaged in your work.
Modules:
Talent Dynamics
Understand how you add the most value to a team, the kind of work that best suits you and how to work well with other team members.
Core Being
A delightful process to identify and connect with the work that truly represents you at your very best, the work you've been doing whenever you've been truly in your flow.
Integration Coaching
Three "deep dive" sessions to refine and embed your Core Being into your everyday working life, leaving you feeling assured in your value and energized in your work
Implementation Coaching
Over the next 10 months we get into the nuts and bolts of delivering your newly-discovered potential, including communicating it with clients, bosses and colleagues.
You can choose between face-to-face or Zoom sessions, or a mix of both. I do prefer doing at least the Core Being session in person, that can be in London or my beautiful home city of Worcester (very easy access via the M5 motorway).
Wake Up Your Potential: £200pcm x 12
Your Core Being VIP Day
Over the course of a whole day together we will explore how you've enjoyed creating tremendous value so far, in your work and in your life. This can be at my "head office" in Worcester, in London, or somewhere else if you prefer - you choose!
Core Process
We all have one thing that we do better than anyone else, and this delightful approach helps you put a name to it, something that you can use to remind yourself of it whenever work gets a bit dull or frustrating.
Core Purpose
Once you know WHAT you do, it's time to truly understand WHY it matters that you do it. Tying your Core Process to a Core Purpose will help you stay on track in a changing and uncertain world of work
Core Practice
Finally, we'll get down to the day-to-day actions that have contributed to your achievements so far, and will lock in your future success whatever career challenges the world sends your way.
And then we'll have a couple of follow-up calls, just to make sure you'll be able to use what you've uncovered about yourself and your best work in everyday life.
VIP Day: £795
Regular Coaching
Sometimes all you need is someone to bounce ideas off, to gain much greater clarity about what's going on at work, and more importantly, how best to respond to it.
With decades of workplace experience and a playful way of challenging your assumptions and unhelpful beliefs, I can guide you to be making choices that will make your work much more enjoyable and fulfilling!
We can address thing like:
Confidence issues & "imposter syndrome"
If work changes have left you feeling less confident than your would like, we can explore what's really going on and restore your faith in your ability and your potential.
Imposter Syndrome
Maybe you're feeling like you have ended up in a job you're either not suited to, or not really qualified for. Let's find out if that's really true - and if it is, explore what things you can do to change it!
Difficult bosses & colleagues
I get it, sometimes people are just downright awkward, aren't they? Well, honestly, probably not in their version of the world! This is why seeing things from a different perspective can be incredibly helpful.
Nonsensical policies
Management demands that just don't stack up are a major source of frustration at work. Learning how to deliver what they really want can be enormously satisfying - and great for your career!
You can choose between face-to-face or Zoom sessions, or a mix of both. In person can be in London or my beautiful home city of Worcester (very easy access via the M5 motorway, and regular trains from London and Birmingham).
Regular coaching: £150 per session (6 sessions commitment)
Talent Dynamics
A profiling system based on your preferred thinking and action dynamics, this test will reveal how you best operate within a workplace team, and help you find your flow at work.
The Profile Test
The test itself takes 20-30minutes to complete, and it's important you answer all the questions as candidly as you can. The quality of the output depends on how honest you are being with yourself about what you enjoy and are good at.
The Report
Your individualised report will give you useful insights into how you can add the most value in your role, and what sort of work environment will best suit you. It also provides insight into how you interact with the other 7 profiles.
The Debrief
Finally, in a detailed individual meeting over Zoom, we will explore exactly how understanding your profile will allow you to make your specific workplace circumstances more productive, fulfilling and enjoyable.
Some people go on to get their entire team to take the test, discounts or commissions are available for that, and for the Team Dynamics programmes (see above).
Profile & Debrief: £97
Coaching executives and individuals to be all you are willing to be inside and outside of work

3 Elements of your Core Being
Core Process
Your Core Process sits at the very centre of your Core Being, and sums up that thing you do when you’re completely in the zone, and creating massive value in the world. And loving every moment! This is the 'What' of your Core Being, and is concerned with your unique Value and Talent in the world - Andrew’s is “Encouraging Potential”
Core Purpose
Your Core Purpose is the big overall goal your personal Core Process is there to help you achieve. This is the 'Why' of your Core Being, and is all about finding your Purpose and Passion in the world - it is very personal and often only means anything to you - so we won't share Andrew's here!
Core Practice
Your Core Practice is the way you interact with other people and the world to deliver your Core Process. It is the practical, pragmatic 'How' element of your Core Being, and it relates to your Tribe and how you Serve them - Andrew's is 'Connecting to People'

Talent Dynamics
Talent Dynamics looks at the combination of how a team member best creates Value and Leverage in their role. Value comes from their thinking style (coming up with ideas or getting them delivered) and Leverage comes from their action style (people or process, extrovert or introvert).
From the combination of those 4 energies or frequencies (Dynamo = ideas; Tempo = delivery; Blaze = extrovert, people; Steel = introvert, data/process) we get 8 unique profiles (Creator, Star, Supporter, Dealmaker, Trader, Accumulator, Lord, and Mechanic). Each profile contributes differently, and needs a different style of management and leadership to truly flourish.
You can see from the diagram, there's a lot more to it - book a chat and let's discuss
My personal take on each profile:
+ve: always coming up with new ideas; sees innovation everywhere
-ve: moves on before they’re finished (or even half-started)
+ve: loves to be the centre of attention, great for promoting ideas
-ve: can be focused on themselves and how they stay in the limelight; can be aloof
+ve: great with people and a good leader, ideal CEO or team leader
-ve: people can be more important than profits; can put team interests ahead of results
+ve: great at seeing the value in putting people together, and creating a win-win, building relationships
-ve: can’t find them, they’re always out there ‘schmoozing’ & looking for new deals
+ve: Great at closing the deal at the perfect time; also strong focus on ensuring great service is provided
-ve: Very delivery-centred; not good at coming up with new things
+ve: Always looking for the value hidden in the data, prepared to play the ‘long game’
-ve: Over-analytical, can slow a project down
+ve: Always knows where the cash is in the deal, and how to appropriate it
-ve: Can be very detached, not very good with people
+ve: Creates a system and process, systematizes everything, ensures everything runs smoothly
-ve: System is more important than people; constantly tinkering to improve it
