What is Ideation Coaching
We developed a coaching method using a creative brainstorming process called Ideation.
This method helps professionals in search of change to visualise their psychological landscape. This allows us to unpack tendencies, challenges and explore new perspectives.
We use coaching to develop these ideas, create targets and ultimately build tools to gain results.

Our story
Ideation Coaching is a creative consultancy and partnership between Devlin Shea & Charles Richardson.
We started Ideation Coaching because we believe passionately that everyone has the capacity for change through creativity.
Research shows that people only have access to 5% of their conscious thought. When coaches ask clients what they want they rely on the client consciously knowing.
We’ve created techniques to help us engage with the previously unexplored subconscious beliefs. Creating a vital tool for the coach and clients.
