Founded by Hendrix Hammond, an experienced relationship therapist, coach, and trainer, Conversational Partners brings together a team of professionals with decades of experience across the public, private, and charity sectors.
Through his work across diverse settings, Hendrix noticed a consistent truth: whether in therapy, leadership, or team development, people are searching for connection, understanding, and a sense of belonging. This became the foundation for Conversational Partners. We want to support approaches where people can grow, develop and learn with the support of skilled coaches, trainers and therapists who understand the experience being human.
Our Ethos
At our core, we believe that change happens in relationship; and that no one thrives in isolation.
We are guided by the principle that it’s a journey we take together, and we approach our work with:
- A relational approach – because trust and connection are the bedrock of transformation.
- Therapeutic insight – bringing emotional intelligence to leadership, culture, and wellbeing.
- Systemic thinking – recognising that people flourish when the systems they’re part of are healthy, inclusive, and responsive.
- Curiosity over judgement – holding space for reflection, not correction.
- Community and collective care – honouring old wisdom that reminds us healing, growth, and leadership are not individual pursuits, but collective ones.
We work with organisations not just as clients, but as communities; supporting them to reimagine how connection and care can be restored to the fabric of work, leadership, and daily life.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, we walk alongside our clients, asking the deeper questions, creating space for reflection, and exploring what becomes possible when we move together.
