Executive coaching and business advisory for leaders in complex times

Weave Associates

Weave Associates works with senior leaders navigating environments where complexity, ambiguity and pressure are no longer temporary—but structural. As organisations grow, shift or reset, leaders are required to think systemically, influence across boundaries and make high-stakes decisions without complete information.

Our work strengthens leadership capability at these critical moments, helping executives lead with clarity and credibility when certainty is unavailable.

Our approach integrates executive coaching with enterprise advisory, grounded in organisational psychology and evidence-based tools, including the Hogan Assessments Suite.

Hogan insights are used to deepen self-awareness, surface leadership risks under pressure and align behaviour with strategic and organisational demands.

By weaving together self, strategy and system, we support leaders to lead effectively in complex times.

1:1 coaching for leaders stepping into senior roles or navigating complex challenges.

Hogan Assessment Programs

We use Hogan Assessments as part of a broader, psychologically informed approach to leadership development. Hogan provides a robust lens on leadership strengths, potential derailers under pressure, and core drivers of behaviour.

Rather than treating assessment results as endpoints, we use them as starting points for reflection, dialogue and behavioural change—linking insight directly to role demands, strategic context and organisational dynamics. This ensures assessment translates into meaningful leadership impact, not just awareness.

Here's what our clients say

I like the way Tom builds my self confidence and quick in understanding my challenges and helped me through going one step deep and making me understand the starting point where I can improve myself.

Thank you Tom for all the great coaching sessions.

- Ankita, Unilever

I had three coaching sessions with Tom, which were incredibly beneficial for my career development. During these sessions, I shared my career aspirations, and we discussed strategies to create impact and overcome challenges, bringing me closer to my goals.

Before working with Tom, I was uncertain about where to begin and felt quite overwhelmed by my new role. I am grateful for Tom’s guidance in enhancing my professional life. I would highly recommend professionals to collaborate with Tom.
