Strong Training & Coaching's Lead Coach & Trainer: Coaching for commercial growth – Maureen Falvey
Description
Today’s guest is Maureen Falvey. Formerly a senior exec at Grey, Saatchis and McGarryBowen, she’s now a professional coach and trainer.
Maureen explores how a coaching mindset isn’t just a personal development tool – it’s a cultural and commercial unlock for modern agencies.
She dives into why coaching is all about asking, not telling, and how that shift helps agency leaders unlearn old habits, show up with greater confidence and create healthier relationships – with both teams and clients.
Maureen also shares practical advice for agency leaders struggling with client boundaries, pitching pressures and over-servicing. From improving how you sell, to reshaping team culture, she offers plenty of insights to help you rise above the chaos and lead with purpose.
