YOUR STRONGEST LEADERS HAVE PROVED THEY CAN DELIVER

Now they need to lead beyond their expertise

at enterprise level, expertise is assumed

judgement, influence and authority are what set leaders apart

We help you build these

From accomplished operator to influential enterprise leader

The Boost helps successful senior leaders move beyond the function, market or specialism that made them successful.

Through executive coaching and rehearsal-based leadership development, leaders build the enterprise-wide judgement, influence, authority and communication required for broader ExCo and board-level responsibility.

“Rosie and The Boost massively boosted the communication skills of my team - across executive presence, trust and connection, storytelling, delivery, and leading engaging meetings. We couldn’t be happier with this impact.

My teams loved the practical, rehearsal-based tools that are engaging, memorable, and immediately usable - not theory or one-off inspiration.

DAVID LAWENDA - CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER, PARAMOUNT

Over the past two years, leaders at these organisations have chosen The Boost.

The leadership transition organisations cannot afford to get wrong

Your strongest senior leaders are being asked to operate beyond the expertise that made them successful.

They must now think across the enterprise, influence other powerful leaders, exercise judgement in ambiguity and communicate complex decisions with authority.

What can initially appear to be a confidence or communication issue can quickly become a succession, retention and organisational risk problem.

The Boost prepares accomplished leaders for the greater responsibility, visibility and scrutiny that come with the next level.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR BEST PEOPLE ARE READY FOR MORE?

• Strong functional leaders begin to think and act for the whole enterprise.

• The people with the best ideas learn how to make them heard, understood and acted upon.

• Senior stakeholders trust their judgement, not only their expertise.

• Succession candidates become credible choices for broader responsibility.

• Leaders hold their authority when the pressure, visibility and scrutiny increase.

• Important decisions move beyond silos and gain support across the organisation.

• Valuable people progress, perform and stay.

• Your strongest leaders raise the ceiling for everyone around them.

My team were already brilliant at their jobs. I needed everyone else to see that too.

Rosie brings a rare mix of deep storytelling expertise from theatre and real corporate experience. She showed my team how to tell compelling stories that would genuinely land in their world.

She’s also a very engaging coach. The fun she brings is what makes all her practical techniques so memorable.

Carlos Mantiaga Bautista,
COO Corporate and Investment Banking Santander

Hi, I’m Rosie Dalling, founder of The Boost.

Here’s what I’ve learned from working with successful executives and their teams in some of the world’s most complex organisations:

The expertise that makes someone successful is not always enough to make them effective at the next level.

As responsibility, visibility and scrutiny increase, leaders must operate differently. They need to think beyond their specialism, influence other powerful people, communicate complex ideas clearly and hold their authority when the pressure rises.

At The Boost, we help accomplished leaders make that shift.

Drawing on executive coaching, professional theatre, storytelling and relationship coaching, we create a rehearsal-style environment where leaders can practise the real moments that will define their success before the stakes are real.

INSIGHT DOESN’t CHANGE HOW PEOPLE LEAD.

PRACTICE DOES

Most leadership development gives people valuable information. But knowing what good leadership looks like is not the same as being able to deliver it when the pressure rises.

That is why we work like a rehearsal room. Leaders bring the meetings, decisions, relationships and high-stakes moments that matter. They test new approaches, receive precise feedback and practise until the new behaviour becomes available when the stakes are real.

This is how insight becomes action, action becomes behaviour, and behaviour becomes lasting leadership capability.

THE BOOST METHOD

The Rehearsal Space

Safety without challenge stunts growth. Challenge without safety shuts people down.

I create a rehearsal-style environment that’s rarely possible in corporate settings — carefully designed through a specific combination of structure, challenge, safety and practice. It’s not a generic safe space, but a carefully curated environment where leaders can test ideas, practise real moments and experiment under conditions that mirror the pressure of real work.

Many leaders struggle at the extremes: too little psychological safety, where challenge disappears, or too much, where standards drop. This environment creates for both. Once they’ve experienced that balance for themselves, leaders want to learn how to recreate it for their own teams. I show them the exact method.

Techniques Shaped Across Disciplines

Most ‘strategy’ problems are actually ‘behaviour’ problems.

Leaders often look at competitors and wonder why similar strategies, talent and resources produce very different results. The gap is not intent or intelligence, but how leaders communicate, decide and show up under pressure.

I combine theatre-based storytelling, relationship coaching and cross-sector leadership insight: shaped by years of work with leaders from government to tech, to translate what’s proven to work in one high-stakes environment directly into yours.

The techniques I use are current, tested and applied directly to how leaders behave in real moments.

Performance in Practice

Insight alone doesn’t generate sustained behavioural change.

I focus on performance in the truest sense: how leaders turn insight into action, reflect on what actually happened, and adjust how they show up next time.

Leaders use clear reflection tools to review real meetings, presentations and conversations - focusing on impact, not just intent - and make small, specific shifts that change outcomes.

This includes relational performance: how leaders listen, respond, set boundaries and build trust, so confidence is felt not just in what they say, but in how others experience them.
