Leadership Training and Coaching
Clearer thinking under pressure.
Leadership training and coaching for legal and professional leaders, from a senior solicitor and leadership coach.
Law firms and professional services face growing complexity, competition and client demands; and leading talented, independent-minded people through that is uniquely demanding.
My approach combines practical leadership development with a deeper understanding of human behaviour, helping you make clear decisions under pressure and translate insight into lasting change.

Three ways to work together
I know how little spare time leaders have, especially in the pace of legal practice. Every session is practical and focused, with tools people can use the same day. Sessions are arranged to fit around client work commitments.
Leadership workshops for law firms.
Half-day workshops at your offices for partners, heads of department and senior associates, scheduled to suit the firm. Practical, experience-based sessions on on the challenges your leaders face right now, including: leading people, building relational intelligence, and navigating challenges under pressure.
3 hours CPD
One-to-one coaching.
For capable leaders ready to take the next step: working through challenges, gaining perspective and refining how you lead, in a way that holds up under pressure.
In person or online.
Loch Lomond strategy days.
A day away from the office and into nature. Distance creates perspective, and perspective is a commercial advantage. Leadership teams spend time on the loch, then work through the issue that matters most in a facilitated session.
Change that lasts.
Mind
Emotion
Understanding the emotions that drive behaviour, so they inform your choices rather than control them.
Body
Noticing how pressure shows up physically, and learning to steady it.
Practice
Small, practical experiments in real situations, repeated until new responses become second nature.
When all three are aligned, real change happens.
Sukhi Littlejohn
Senior solicitor and leadership coach
I founded Lomond Leadership after years of watching talented, capable leaders operate under relentless pressure, without the tools to think clearly. Alongside my legal career, including leading a department and training solicitors, I became increasingly fascinated by human performance: how thinking patterns influence behaviour, how the body influences the mind, and how both shape the way we perform and lead.
After fifteen years in legal practice, and coaching leaders since 2018, I work closely with founders, partners and leadership teams navigating high-pressure environments.
My approach combines practical legal and professional experience with evidence-informed coaching techniques, drawing on NLP and body-based coaching.
Going beyond traditional conversation-based coaching, I focus on the patterns that shape how we think, feel and respond, helping turn insight into meaningful, lasting behavioural change.
I am also the Event Producer of the British Business Awards, the UK’s largest business dinner, where I create the place for the country’s leading businesses and leaders to be celebrated. The Awards bring more than 2,000 guests from the UK’s largest blue-chip companies together each year, with past winners including household names in legal, banking and pharmaceuticals, and speakers such as George Clooney, Sting and Sir Bob Geldof.
My work is informed by what high-performing leadership looks like at the very top of UK business. It combines strategic facilitation and leadership development to help leaders gain the perspective they need to lead with greater clarity.
