With over 30 years of experience gained through senior management appointments with some of the world’s largest companies and at top-tier law firms, Claire Bibby now coaches executives to empower them to move their career and leadership dreams into active, actionable, pursuits.

Whether you’re craving an answer on what your dream career by design looks like, want to finally move a great idea off the backburner and into reality, feel like your career is at a T (i.e. you’re “stuck”) or a Y (i.e. you’re wondering if you should be doing something else), or you want to get that next promotion or a new job but not sure what else you need to do (or perhaps stop doing), consider working with Claire Bibby as your professional coach, to learn how you CAN rewrite the next stage of your career.

Claire’s sweet spot is coaching mid to senior level executives who want to make a change in their careers – be that a sideways, upwards or a move away from the law.  It may be that they are wanting to ready themselves for a promotion (or perhaps they’ve been promoted) and want to upskill themselves personally, gain leadership expertise, people management abilities and/or support in their journey (as it can be lonely/hard to know who to trust as your seniority grows).  Very few top leaders get where they got by doing the same thing or doing it alone. 

Having led teams from a couple of people, to teams of over 50, Claire helps her clients get where they want to go.  Having 3 decades of executive experience, and alongside of founding and running Leadership Advocates with Lara, Claire also now owns and runs a boutique law firm and knows firsthand what it takes to create and operate successful businesses. 

Claire is certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) as a Professional Coach, is a certified Positive Intelligence Coach (CPQC), is a non-executive director of multiple ASX listed and private companies and is an Industry/Professional Fellow with the University of Technology Sydney, School of Law. 

Claire has been recognised as one of Australia’s best lawyers and female executives, including having been awarded the “Excellence Award for Women in Law”, “General Counsel of the Year”, “Female Executive of the Year in Asia, Australia & New Zealand”, “Mentor of the Year” and was featured in SmartCompany’s International Women’s Day Showcase.

Claire is a values-driven coach, and is a member of both the International Coaching Federation and The Institute of Coaching McLean/Harvard Medical School.
