Dr Angus McLeod

Dr Angus McLeod is an author and regular contributor at international conferences, with many published articles on team and coaching performance in the international press. He has held over a dozen corporate board appointments starting in retail and technical (including environmental businesses) and more recently in people-development organizations.

His management books include: ‘Me, Myself, My Team’ (2000, and revised edition 2006), ‘Performance Coaching’ (2003) and ‘Self-coaching Leadership’ (2007) which has been widely reviewed with citations from Judith Delozier and Robert Dilts among many others. His books are translated into a number of languages including Russian and Chinese.

Angus designed the Newcastle College Diploma Course in Performance Coaching with over 7,000 student registrations in its first year and launched the first e-mentoring product in the world, ‘Ask Max’, with others in 1999. Angus also co-created the not-for-profit coach-development organization, The Coaching Foundation, in 1998. Newcastle has commissioned a new Diploma Course in Coaching from Angus and this will be launched in 2008.

Angus has designed and facilitated many courses and currently these include Management & Leadership Development Programs and Coach Development Programs including programmes that provide coaching skills for use in day-to-day management in the UK Health Service and elsewhere. The undercurrent to his courses is based upon practical learning that can be applied in the workplace the same day and also about personal development: for self-actualization, understanding others and personal effectiveness. He works from Worcestershire in the UK and from Philadelphia in the US.
