The  aim is  still  to make a real difference to the quality of peoples’ lives, especially people who support those or those  who live with long term health conditions and disabilities.

Having experienced the benefits of coaching for individuals and organisations during my previous work experience, the focus of the work of Advancing Potential is now through personal lifestyle and work based coaching. 
​
Please read more about my/our professional journey and how coaching can make a big positive impact, especially during periods of change and uncertainty.  The Coaching can be available as a unique personal opportunity or as part of organisational support and development.

About >

Lynne Barr:
Having reached a crossroads in my professional life and an opportunity to focus on my desire to support individuals in their own personal development, I have realigned my energy specifically into personal coaching. 
I have designed and managed several initiatives in recent years that had coaching as a core element and have been a coach trainer for the  since 2009. I have more recently undertaken the institute of leadership and management (ILM) Level 5 in Coaching & Mentorship (2020). 
I look forward to taking forward & increasing the opportunity for people who could benefit from coaching in their lives.
This website includes  details of the previous initiatives (My Life Programme and BRIO)  as I am keen to share the experience and resources with those who are interested, especially where the  marketing and branding capability is available to turn  local benefits into a wider success.
