The Mindset of an Executive Coach with Fiona Flemington

The Mindset of an Executive Coach with Fiona Flemington

Executive coach Fiona Flemington on the leader’s mindset—turning vision into priorities, playing to strengths, handling tough conversations and building sustainable performance.


In this episode, Paul Corke is joined by Fiona Flemington—an experienced Executive Coach who’s partnered with senior leaders across sectors since 2014. With 30 years in leadership development, Fiona has a proven track record helping clients clarify vision, leverage strengths, navigate high-stakes challenges and develop capability for lasting, sustainable success.

We unpack the executive mindset: moving from reactive to intentional, focusing on the few priorities that matter, and creating the rhythms (reviews, feedback, reflection) that keep performance and wellbeing in balance.

You’ll hear:

  • Vision → strategic priorities → leadership behaviours (how to cascade clearly)

  • Strengths-based growth without blind spots (derailers & trigger management)

  • Running high-stakes conversations: context → intent → impact → ask

  • Stakeholder mapping & influence: sponsors, skeptics, operators, customers

  • Operating cadence: weekly WIP, decision meetings (not updates), reflection rituals

Try this (Executive Clarity—15 minutes):

  1. 90-day outcomes (3 lines): Success = [Outcome] measured by [Metric].

  2. Priorities (3): one owner, one metric, one first step each.

  3. Stakeholders (4): sponsor, skeptic, operator, customer—book two 1:1s.

  4. Calendar check: protect two 90-min focus blocks + one weekly decision meeting.

  5. Debrief cadence: end the week with a 5-minute AAR—intended / happened / why / change.

A clear, practical conversation for leaders who want to think sharper, lead calmer and deliver what matters.
