What it is
Altered Performance is a six-month in-depth one-on-one coaching programme built around monthly three-hour deep-dive sessions with preparation and homework pre and post-sessions (structured experiments to practice) and responsive support between sessions.
It is not a “fix-your-leadership” course.
While we explore your self-awareness, we also rigorously review the five pillars of sustained performance:
​
-
Meaningful relationships.
-
Nutrition and metabolic health.
-
Movement and recovery.
-
Sleep architecture.
-
Purpose-driven work and stress resilience.
It is human transformation that happens to make you an outperforming leader. You will get out what you put in – change is challenging and uncomfortable. It is also hugely rewarding.
​
Duration: Six months.
Format: One-on-one, private and confidential. Delivery: In person (Zurich, London, Geneva, Cape Town) and/or remote.
Who it is for
Altered Performance is for senior leaders, founders and executives who:
​
-
Are new to a senior role and need structure, support and a trusted space to think, reconnect and change. They may feel stuck, plateaued or disconnected from why they do this work.
​​
-
Are over-performing and on the edge of burnout, the pace is not sustainable. They know they need to change or risk being ill or likely to fail.
​​
-
Are navigating a major transition: new company, reorganisation, industry shifts or life changes.

"I started with Altered as a high-performer returning from maternity leave, on the edge of exhaustion knowing change was required. I am developing into a leader who knows how to rest, think clearly and show up fully. The impact on me, my team and my family has been transformational."
