I coach established business owners to build stronger leadership, better systems, and businesses that scale.

As an experienced executive business coach with over nine years of dedicated practice, I am passionate about guiding business owners and leaders toward their vision of a better future. My strapline encapsulates my coaching philosophy: Lead with significance, coach with impact, and live with joy.

Who I Coach:
Running a growing business should not mean carrying everything on your shoulders. Many business owners reach a point where the company is successful on paper, but day-to-day operations still depend too heavily on them. Decisions bottleneck, accountability slips, and growth starts to feel heavier instead of easier.

I love working with business owners and leadership teams to strengthen leadership capability, put the right management systems in place, and create clarity around roles, accountability, and direction. The result is a business that performs consistently, develops capable leaders, and grows without constant owner intervention.

Why Choose Me as Your Coach?
1. Brutal Honesty & Transparency: I provide candid, straightforward feedback to help you achieve your goals.
2. Unwavering Belief: I believe in your potential, even when you cannot see it yourself.
3. Relentless Commitment: I never give up. We persevere together, regardless of how challenging the journey may be.

My Core Belief:
Every day we wake up is a gift filled with opportunities and choices. Living intentionally and leveraging these moments towards your definition of success is the key to a fulfilling life.

Ever wondered why a business coach?

Three Proven Reasons:

  • As a business owner, we get caught up in our day-to-day reality… an outside perspective brings challenge and clarity.
  • An experienced business coach adds value with years of knowledge and business expertise.
  • A coach keeps us accountable to keep on doing the heavy lifting… disciplined execution on clear and defined goals.

Clients’ Thoughts on Business Coaching with Coach Lindie

A few years ago, I reached out to Lindie to bring an external perspective to our management team at Tiger Wheel & Tyre. My goal was to have someone come in and assess our business, our people, and our values without being influenced by internal processes or day-to-day operations. I intentionally didnโ€™t share intimate details like our KPIs, specific measures, or processes because I wanted Lindie to remain independent, able to “read the room” and provide fresh, unbiased insights.

What truly impressed me was how Lindie accomplished exactly that. Without diving into granular business data, she managed to get to the heart of what really matters: our vision, our culture, and our long-term goals. Itโ€™s not about the products we sell; itโ€™s about the why behind what we do. Lindie helped our management team reconnect with that core purpose in a way that was both powerful and inspiring.

Her ability to shift mindsets and bring clarity to our leadership team has been nothing short of remarkable. She challenged us, individually and collectively, in the most positive way, encouraging us to reflect on where we want to be and how we can get there. Whatโ€™s more, she didnโ€™t just provide theoretical advice; she helped us frame our approach to business and leadership in a manner that aligned with our vision and values, fostering a deep sense of ownership and commitment among our management team.

Lindieโ€™s independent and external viewpoint was exactly what we needed to elevate our strategic thinking and enhance our team collaboration. She has played a pivotal role in ensuring that our management group isnโ€™t only aligned in terms of what we do, but also in understanding the underlying reasons behind it.

If youโ€™re looking for someone who can shift mindsets, inspire positive change, and challenge your team to think beyond the usual frameworks, I couldnโ€™t recommend Lindie highly enough. Her unique approach and ability to create lasting impact are something that has truly transformed how we lead at Tiger Wheel & Tyre.

Dear Lindie, thank you for your wonderful email, the photos, they truly capture the spirit of the journey our Coastal managers have been on.

We deeply appreciate the time, energy, and expertise you have invested in coaching our team. The positive impact of your guidance is clear, not only in their professional growth but also in their renewed confidence and leadership skills. Itโ€™s been inspiring to see how your approach has helped them step up and thrive.

The feedback from the managers has been overwhelmingly positive, and the pride you expressed in them is one we share wholeheartedly. We are grateful to have partnered with someone so dedicated and passionate about developing people.

Thank you once again for helping us nurture and empower our leadership team. We truly value your contribution and look forward to future opportunities to work together.

Working with Lindie has been a transformative experience. She has a remarkable ability to push you out of your comfort zone in the best possible way. Instead of simply giving answers or telling you what to do, Lindie guides you to dig deeper, think differently, and uncover solutions yourself, which has helped me grow both personally and professionally.

Lindie’s coaching style is warm, insightful, and genuinely empowering. A special mention to Ansie, who ensures everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. Together, they create an environment that is supportive, structured, and focused on real growth.

I highly recommend Lindie Malan and the ActionCOACH team to anyone looking to elevate their business, mindset, and overall outlook on success

Working with Lindie elevated both my business and my personal leadership. She helped me identify blind spots, refine my goals, and develop a strategic plan that actually works in real life. Her coaching style balances accountability with genuine support, and the progress Iโ€™ve made is beyond what I expected. I can confidently say my success today is partly because of her guidance. Iโ€™ve also shared the learnings and methods Lindie has taught me and applied them within my team!

I would definitely recommend Lindie as a business coach. She has the peopleโ€™s skills and so much knowledge. To give someone advice is nothing but to read the person and give the right advice is truly a gift.

I became a manager who learned how to delegate and not do everything myself. I am more confident, I learned to take control and get the best out of my staff. Learning about everything that Lindie taught me has been an eye-opening experience. They are definitely things I won’t forget and will implement in my everyday life.

I am more confident and have more clarity of what I want, both personally and at work. Lindie is genuine, straight to the point, and really cares about your growth. She pushes you to do the work but supports you every step of the way. I want real results and a fresh perspective. Coaching with her was a great experience.
