What we offer

CPD for your existing coaching network

If you already have a pool of internal coaches, we support them to keep their practice sharp and current.

Coach training

Whether you're setting up a coaching network from scratch, or looking to equip leaders with coaching skills, or grow your coaching provision, we build training around where you are and where you want to be.

Leadership development, delivered through a coaching approach

Bespoke leadership development, always designed with a coaching approach at its core. Where useful, we use psychometric assessments and workshops to give leaders real insight into how they think, lead and land with others.

Building a coaching culture

We help embed coaching as a genuine part of how your organisation operates, so it shows up in how people lead, manage and support each other.

Sourcing coaches for your organisation

Need coaches for your organisation? We can help you find and place the right coaches, matched to what you need.

Quality assurance for coach providers

If you provide or manage a panel of coaches, we can help make sure they're excellent and not just accredited.

Why organisations work with ACE

Real coaches

Everything is led and overseen by ACE founders, Verity and Holly.

Two experienced coaches and coach educators.

Real standards

We don't simply sell an off-the-shelf framework or outsource to trainers who can't coach.

We make sure you're working with the right team for your goals.

Real return

Commercial returns matter.

We get it right, so coaching becomes one of the highest return investments you'll make in your people

Jude Fairweather is an executive and leadership coach, coach educator, mentor coach, and accredited coach supervisor. She brings extensive experience in coach development, including four years as a coach educator at one of the UK’s top-ranked business schools and many hundreds of hours supporting coaches through mentor coaching and coaching supervision. Her work is grounded in curiosity, reflective practice, respect for difference, and a systemic understanding of people, teams, and organisational culture. Jude is particularly interested in helping coaches deepen the quality of their practice, work more intentionally with the ICF Core Competencies, and develop the confidence, clarity, and maturity needed for impactful professional coaching.

Rebecca brings extensive experience and deep expertise to her work facilitating learning with leaders and professionals across a wide range of roles, sectors, career stages, and cultural contexts. Her approach is highly adaptable, grounded in a strong evidence base, and carefully shaped around the goals, challenges, and realities of those she works with.

Those who work with Rebecca value her ability to create thoughtful, psychologically safe learning spaces that invite honest reflection, dialogue, and deep self awareness. She combines academic rigour with real world relevance, offering supportive challenge while remaining approachable and grounded in her style. Her facilitation is characterised by curiosity and humility, enabling participants to engage openly with complex issues without feeling judged or directed.

Rebecca is particularly skilled at guiding individuals and groups to notice patterns in their thinking, behaviour, and interactions that are often taken for granted. By helping people slow down and make sense of their experiences, she supports meaningful insight and learning that can be translated into purposeful action and sustained change.

Rebecca is a Professor in Coaching and Behaviour Change and is internationally recognised for her research on learning and development in coaching and leadership contexts. She has published extensively in leading academic journals on coaching effectiveness, alongside a second stream of research focused on equality, diversity, and inclusion, including inclusive leadership, group based learning for women in leadership, and menopause at work.

She is the author of three books, Coaching with Research in Mind, Key Topics in Coaching Psychology, and Simplifying Inclusive Leadership, which translate research evidence into practical insight for leaders, practitioners, and organisations. Outside work, Rebecca enjoys countryside walks, weightlifting, and time with her two sons. She also serves on the Advisory Board of a non profit CIC dedicated to making high quality coaching and development accessible to all.
