about me

Around 2000, I was lucky enough to receive some NLP coaching. 

It worked; I'm a fan.  I'm now on a mission to tell people why and how coaching and NLP works. 

Since then, I've trained extensively across coaching, NLP, psychotherapy, behavioural psychology and hypnosis.  I've worked with large 'blue chip' organisations across private and public sectors, charities, SME's and micro businesses.  The common themes have always been improving relationships and changing behaviours.

I moved to the glorious Isle of Wight in 2015, following my heart (e.g. the love of my life) and have continued to support individuals, groups & businesses to become the very best versions of themselves they can be.

Over the years, I've been fortunate to have been trained, mentored, supported and encouraged by a number of exceptional people (you know who you are) and I shall always be grateful for the depth of learning, wisdom and compassion they have shown me.

In service of helping you get the best from yourself, your relationships and your teams, I now 'past it forward' with enthusiasm and a determination to help break down any barriers to optimal performance in all the contexts that matter. 

"It is rare to meet someone with such an unusual skill set/expertise and with such a winning way in communicating it. Ed is a truly an inspirational man and a consummate professional."

"Ed was an invaluable resource available to me in my last role. At first I was sceptical, but I am now a true believer. Ed has a wealth of experience to bring to the table and offers a healthy challenge to the decision making process, allowing room for personal growth and directly improving coaching skill sets."

"Excellent course of an exceptionally high standard, taught with integrity. In my opinion, having seen others teach NLP as well, there is no one more suitable, more passionate and more knowledgeable than Edward Grey."

M.L. NLP course attendee

"Honestly, I never thought coaching would change me as much as it did. I know I have benefitted, but my team have also seen real shifts in the way they now think and feel about the work; they have said it's because I have 'stepped up' - all down to the coaching I believe. Thank you!"
