About Simon - crop
Simon Hawtrey-Woore, Founder, The Outspire

I call myself the Outdoor Executive Coach

I first trained as a coach 18 years ago and transitioned away from my communication agency to start a coaching practice full-time ten years ago.

I love to work with purpose-driven leaders who want more influence within their organisations and create a more significant impact, helping them break through the barriers between potential and performance.

As well as coaching one-to-one clients,
I specialise in leading from the bigger picture and empowering leadership.

7. Why Coaching Outdoors? Better Ideas!

Walking outdoors is critical to finding perspective away from the four walls and the ceiling of our day-to-day challenges. 
 
My places of work are all outdoors. The UK's parks, forests, mountains, and coastlines offer natural inspiration in a calm, safe and healthy environment. 
 
Walking has been proven to increase creativity by 60%. It's no surprise that some of our best ideas pop up when we're walking and talking. 
 
The small picture of our 2D Digital world makes it increasingly hard to find perspective and see the bigger picture in our places of work. 
 
All our senses become engaged for greater clarity of thought and sharper insights
Step 7-8

8. More Clarity

My clients find that talking freely in natural open spaces brings clarity they have not experienced in any other setting. 
 
We are of nature, so we also tend to be calmer and less fight or flight when in a natural setting. 
 
Problems seem smaller under a big sky, opening up more in the landscapes we walk in.
 
We are wild awake in natural settings. 
 
Mother Nature is metaphorically rich to help us process our thinking. 

9. Walking through limitations

As with any path, there will be bumps (the things we tell ourselves are in our way)
 
I will gently and firmly guide you through these to achieve your leadership ambitions. 
 
Walking side by side, being coached in nature, you'll be able to connect to the more profound truth behind what motivates you. 
 
We are of nature, so we have a primal sense of being in our natural environment, free to be our authentic selves. 
 
Our gaze can be carried from our feet to a far tree or hilltop, helping us process our thinking and calm our senses. 
Step 9-10

10. Taking focused and effective action

Action is vital for a successful outcome. Walking raises our heart rate, releases endorphins and increases our willingness to take action. 
 
Oh, and the side effects of walking include increased levels of vitality. 
 
Not passive, active towards the future.
 
Physical journey with memory anchors lasting long after our time outside.
 
5D environment - counter-intuitive - letting go and slowing down to speed up.

11. Where outdoors are the sessions held?

My coaching sessions take place in beautiful outdoor settings within easy reach of your location. 
 
My usual London office is the 410 acres of Regent's Park. 
 
I also hold sessions throughout the UK on forest trails, mountain paths, coastal landscapes and vibrant city parks, depending on your location, programme design and familiarity with the great outdoors. 
 
I use roaming audio for the sessions when location and travel are more of a challenge - both ends of the phone are walking in our favourite parts of nature.

Frequently Asked Questions

Accordions are great for answering frequently asked questions.

What happens if it's raining?

I keep a keen eye on the weather hourly and by the minute using various apps. Coats and umbrellas usually suffice, depending on location. Should it pour down during the session, we will take suitable cover. 

What do I need to wear?

Please wear comfortable shoes that don't mind getting muddy as we may not stick to all the paths. Layers are advisable given the changeable weather, and a rucksack/shoulder bag can free up your arms for a more relaxed walking experience. We will pause for a drink during the session, and there may be some tabletop work. 

What do I need to bring to the session?

You don't need to bring anything. Travel light, shoulder bag or rucksack to keep your arms free and your mind open. No need for a notebook or reference materials. I'll have all that.
