Executive Coaching and Neuro-inclusion Consultancy

Supporting neurodivergent leaders, different thinkers and organisations embracing inclusive ways of working.

I’m Emma Thorp, founder of Thorp Coaching. I help founders and leaders understand themselves more deeply, work with their strengths and lead in ways that work with their brains, not against them.

I also help organisations turn neuro-inclusion into everyday practice, so different people can contribute fully and do their best work.

I believe what’s essential for some can benefit many: flexibility, honest conversations, no BS and an approach shaped around how people think, communicate and work best. You don’t have to be neurodivergent to benefit.

Executive coaching

Space to think clearly, trust your judgement and work through the challenges of leading. Online, in person or a mixture of both, with support shaped around how you work.

Commercial experience. Deep human understanding.
Before becoming a coach, I founded and exited my own consultancy and held Chief Commercial Officer and board-level roles. I understand the pressures of leadership, alongside what it can cost to keep appearing as though everything is fine.
I trained at Henley Business School and hold ICF ACC and EMCC Senior Practitioner accreditation, alongside an Advanced Certificate in Neurodiversity Coaching.
My work combines honest challenge, warmth and room for humour. There is room for ambition, joy and a life beyond getting through the working week.
