• DYNAMIC CHANGE

    Energy for change can come from the 'top-down', 'bottom-up', 'inside-out' and 'outside-in'. The resulting tension can be both creative and destructive. Coaching helps to manage the resentment, resignation and uncertainty that change can bring, as well as maximising its potential.

Steve Trivett - Personal & Professional Change Coach

I bring over thirty years experience of developing trust, continuous learning and relationship intelligence to team leaders and senior managers from public and private sector organisations. I have trained many thousands of professionals in how ‘to change’ and ‘to know’ leadership from the 'inside-out'. I remain fully committed to helping leaders learn new, more productive ways of dealing with  business transformation and stakeholder engagement. I set up ‘The Change Zone’ website in 2007 to create a place for leaders to discover the secrets and benefits of ontological learning and dynamic change from multiple perspectives.

I set up my own coaching company after working for over three decades with senior managers and professionals leading customer care and business transformation programmes. As a result I brings a breadth of experience in managerial, professional, organisational, community engagement and management consultancy work. This experience was gained working as a Teacher, a VSO in the Western Pacific, a Community Dvelopment Officer  and Leisure Services Manager in New Towns, a Management Trainer, Learning Projects Director, Organisation Development Consultant and an Executive/Life Coach.

I have a Masters Degree in Education and Diplomas in Teaching, Management Studies and Executive Coaching. AS a Personal and Professional Life Coach (NCFE) I have over 750 hours of coaching experience and a certificate in Clean Language and Symbolic Modelling.  I am a certified NLP Master Practitioner (INLPTA), EFQM Assessor, an experienced facilitator, mentor, learning advisor and tutor on Birmingham University’s Public Sector Management Programme.  I am an active member of the Chartered Management Institute (MCMI) and the European Mentoring and Coaching Council.  

I bring considerable experience of developing and supporting Management & Leadership Development Programmes, as well as Cultural Change and Organisation Development Programmes with large local authorities. I have organised large Open Space and Future Search events, and facilitaed workshops on Appreciative Inquiry, Leading across Boundaries, Managing Stress and Conflict, Community Engagement and Building Trust. Steve runs workshops on Ontological Coaching and NLP Skills for aspiring change leaders.

My company ‘The Change Zone’ offers senior executives a unique approach to the professional and personal challenges of transformational change through an extensive programme of Skill Gym Workshops.  I follow the principles and practices of Ontological Coaching and the International Coaching Federation’s ‘Code of Conduct’. 

My most recent corporate clients include the IDeA, East Birmingham Primary Care Trust, Wolverhampton City Council, Welsh Headteachers Association, Local Government Employers Organisation, The Cabinet Office, Institute of Public Service Managers, Birmingham City Council and the Disabled Ramblers Association.  As well his private coaching clients, Steve has coached business executives at British Energy, Ecobuild Ltd, The Learning Path, GSP Contractors, the National Primary Trust, the National Youth Bureau and Birmingham City Council.

I am married to Pat, a retired Head Teacher.  We have been together for 36 years and have two sons and two grand children. We live in a 16th Century thatched cottage (Grade II listed) in Worcestershire. I practice Vipassana meditation, jazz music (I play clarinet and guitar), sailing and family holidays.
