LEADERSHIP COACHING, CAREER DESIGN, WORKSHOPS
Tamzin Foster
Tamzin is a coach working with leaders who are typically experiencing some form of “stuckness”. She supports her clients to take difficult decisions, or when no clear path presents itself, to overcome inertia.
Coach Profile
Tamzin’s experience spans strategy, business transformation, and leadership development, with past roles at OC&C Strategy Consultants and The Royal Academy of Arts. Whether working in an environment of cool rationality as a consultant, or the explosive creativity of the arts, the common themes of her career have been growth, transformation, and clarity of mind.
Tamzin is Head of Coaching at fuseco.
Style & Approach
Tamzin recognises three distinct levels of change. The first is conscious; what we think and what we say. The second, our behaviours: what we actually do. And the third, our unconscious beliefs, our deepest selves. Since strategic choices, and indeed change of all sorts, implies both a loss as well as a gain, the big business decisions can challenge us at a deeper level than we sometimes care to admit. Tamzin supports you to engage with, rather than deny, the emotional responses we experience in ourselves and others.

Tamzin’s special areas of interest include praise and feedback, how to coach for ‘blindspots’. She has researched and written extensively about the experience of modern fatherhood (on which theme she is available as a speaker). Recognising that not everyone can, or wishes to, be coached, she has also written a series of articles aimed at people looking for a new role, which are freely available via fuseco.uk and on Substack.
