Cecile Woods is an internationally qualified coach specialising in helping leaders and individuals use their strengths to achieve results and navigate career change.

Working within large corporates, Cecile thrived while facilitating conversations among senior leaders about identifying talent, potential, and succession planning. This experience taught her that success within organisations hinges on more than technical skills—it’s about demonstrating leadership traits and building visibility.

This ultimately fuelled her curiosity into coaching and led her to her present-day role of Career Coach. Her focus is uncovering blind spots, clarifying career direction, and instilling positive habits. Cecile works closely with clients, helping them set inspiring goals and navigate their desired changes.

Beyond coaching, Cecile rolls up her sleeves to review CVs/resumes, craft compelling cover letters, optimise LinkedIn profiles, and provide interview coaching.

Armed with a business degree (double major in International Business and HR), Cecile also holds an international coaching accreditation and an accreditation in 360-degree feedback with Human Synergistics.

Nothing excites Cecile more than working one-on-one with individuals, unlocking their potential, and propelling them toward positive outcomes.

Cecile is based in Auckland, but services reach all New Zealand.
