Yang-May Ooi, Business Coach
I work with professionals to help them develop their businesses and careers.
I trained as a lawyer* and combine my coaching and business consultancy at ZenGuide with working part-time in the City of London at a financial institution. My many years of experience of the corporate sector as well as private consulting informs my coaching and mentoring work with her clients.
Clients come to me for my strength in helping them create structured and deliverable plans of action for their businesses and careers that also takeinto account their personal lives and family priorities.
As part of my continuing professional development, I have completed training for an internationally recognised professional coaching qualification at the Coaches Training Institute and am an affiliate member of the Association for Coaching.
