Mark Byford created Further Horizons to help senior leaders facing major transitions. Many ask themselves how best to meet fresh challenges in a way that is authentic, but engages more of their potential. Mark has walked this path with a wide variety of global CEOs. He has an outstanding record helping them set the right development goals, understand themselves better, and transform their approach for lasting success.
Self-awareness is so important to being a successful leader, yet many lack the maps to navigate and explore their inner world effectively. Mark offers a coaching experience that uses simple but profound models to enable that navigation and help unlock more of your personal potential.
Coaches can feel rather distant from day-to-day business challenges, but so often those challenges are at the heart of the work. Mark has been a business consultant at the most senior levels globally for thirty-five years, and weaves his resulting know-how seamlessly into the coaching journey.
We sense that others in previous centuries must have faced similar dilemmas to our own, but how can we tap into what they learned? As a professional historian steeped in culture, Mark’s coaching makes space for perspectives derived from art, literature, history and spiritual traditions across the ages.
Senior executives face the need to lead their teams to deliver increasingly stretching goals in an ever more complex world. Further Horizons was founded with a passionate commitment to helping senior executives build their capacity to address those challenges in ways that speak authentically to their values and distinctive qualities. Mark Byford has built a CEO and executive team coaching practice over many years with an unrivalled reputation for work that consistently delivers the highest levels of impact.
