4Cs was founded on a simple belief: everyone holds untapped potential. Charlene recognised this early in her career, and built
a coaching approach to school improvement offering a way for individuals to realise self-potential. Coaching became more than
a skill development; it became a catalyst for transformation
and sustainable leadership.
Today, 4Cs partners with schools, HR organisations, C-suite leaders, and local government sectors across the UK, Europe, and Asia, building coaching cultures and high-performing teams.
4Cs blends coaching with strategic development, partnering with organisations to embed coaching at every level and empower leaders to drive lasting change. Each initiative is tailored to organisational priorities and designed to deliver practical and sustainable results. Working closely with schools and organisations, 4Cs models best practice and delivers high-impact leadership development with follow-up support to ensure long-term success. Charlene's expertise extends beyond education, offering adaptable strategies that deliver success across multiple sectors.
Charlene is recognised for her precision in evaluation and her ability to translate insight into action. Key achievements include:
• Leading strategic planning and leadership development across large groups of founding and established schools
• Building sustainable coaching cultures that drive leadership growth
• Coaching several Heads of Service and senior leaders in local government
• Supporting HR teams in building leadership pipelines and succession strategies
• Delivering leadership programmes to 200+ leaders, aligned to organisational goals, to boost internal promotion rates

Inspired by the words of my late best friend, Florenza.
Within each being is a light that connects us all.
These words continue to shape the way I approach leadership, connection, and growth.
