Driven by Purpose
To have a positive impact on people, unlocking lives, looking after the health of people and creating true partnerships between business and its people
We are passionate about having a positive impact on people's lives. By democratising coaching, we can unlock everyone's limitless potential
The Back Story
In his years of turning underperforming businesses around, founder Paul Burton saw a pattern: when employees are undervalued, they underperform.
After years of unleashing the potential of individuals one-on-one, Paul set up a scalable, personalised framework that any organisation could use for its people.
C-Coach uses this framework to help individuals, managers, and organisations that want to perform better, but don’t know how.

Nicole Vignola
NEUROSCIENTIFIC EXPERT
Nicole’s deep curiousity for the human mind let her to earn a BSc in Neuroscience at the University of Bristol, and later to an MSc in Organisational Psychology at the University of the West of England. Her previous research on adult synaptic plasticity and wiring of the human brain served as a springboard for further research into the plasticity of mindset change. Nicole quite easily found alignment between her values and the mission at C-Coach. Enabling individual change at scale without expensive in-person coaches and empowering people to take control of their lives is something that Nicole has advocated for over the last few years. At C-Coach, she is responsible for ensuring the platform is backed by science and translates into real impact on its users. She brings her organisation skills, on-demand motivation, and efficiency to the white paper she is current writing for C-Coach’s unique framework.
