About
The mission of Neeve - founder of 'Be' Coaching Solutions is to 'Ignite the Power of Possibility' Neeve Guinnane knows business, and she understands people. Over more than 23 years in senior HR roles with global technology leaders including Facebook and LinkedIn, where she performed her role as a HR Director. Neeve worked on a truly international scale. She lived and worked across Europe and the UK before making Ireland her home. Throughout that career, coaching was always at the heart of what she did, supporting executives, senior leaders, high-performing individual contributors and rising stars to grow, lead and thrive. In September 2019, Neeve made the bold decision to leave corporate life and founded 'Be' Coaching Solutions. She has been a qualified Executive & Life Coach since 2013, and in 2018 she trained in Coaching with Neuroscience through the World Association of Coaching with Neuroscience (WACN). Her coaching optimizes the latest globally recognised approaches from the world of neuroscience and looks at the whole person, including how the nervous system responds to stress, change and challenge, so that the progress clients make is real and sustainable. Neeve works with the Head, the Heart and the Gut: how you think, what you feel, and what you instinctively know to be true. Together, you'll explore what might be holding you back from having, doing and being what you want, both professionally and personally, and build the tools and confidence to take your next step, whatever that may be. Coaching that honours the whole you. She creates a safe, warm, non-judgmental and inclusive space where you can show up as your authentic self. There is no performance required in the sessions - just being open to new levels of awareness, reflection time and a willingness to explore and consider other possibilities. Within it, Neeve offers trust, support and gentle accountability, holding space for you to reflect, gain awareness and find clarity and focus on what truly matters to you. Neeve has a special passion for supporting women in business: helping them gain clarity, grow in confidence, find their voice, be seen, and quieten the inner critic so they can step fully into the best version of themselves. 'Be' Coaching Solutions specialises in: Women in business and leadership Confidence, self-belief and overcoming imposter syndrome Career transition and advancement Redundancy and outplacement support Burnout, stress and well-being Navigating life changes, purpose and direction 'Be' Coaching Solutions is proud to be ranked among the Best in Ireland for 2026, placing in the top two for Career Transition Coaching and the top three for Life Coaching.

Why do I coach?
When someone truly sees their own potential - something powerful unfolds. They step into who they want to be, they pursue what they want to do, and they create the life and career they want to have. Witnessing that transformation is not just rewarding - it is a privilege. I’m Neeve - I am an Irish woman whose early career began without any roadmap into the business world. At the time, there wasn’t a single person in my family, extended network, or circle of friends working in business. I had no real reference point and often felt a bit of a fraud or I was there because of luck. Everything I learned, I learned by stepping forward, taking risks, and figuring things out along the way. What I did have was drive, resilience, and a deep sense that if someone underestimated me or suggested something wasn’t possible, I would quietly go all in to prove that it was. I had strong emotional intelligence and a genuine desire to make a difference. Yet, like many high-achieving professionals, I often felt I was winging it. Imposter syndrome would appear more often than I cared to admit. Looking back, I simply wish I’d had someone to talk to- someone who could have listened to me and reassured me that what I was experiencing was completely normal. That growth in a career often comes with uncertainty, self-doubt, and learning in real time. It wasn’t until well into my own career that I experienced coaching for the first time. I still remember the feeling of safety in that space - the freedom to say what I was truly thinking and feeling while working through a challenging situation. I left those conversations feeling empowered, inspired, and able to show up as my authentic self. That experience ignited a deep passion in me for the transformative power of coaching. In many ways, coaching had already been part of my work for years through my role as a Director - Human Resources Business Partner. I saw, time and again, how people - at every level of an organisation respond when they feel genuinely listened to. When they have a safe space to explore ideas, challenge assumptions, and consider new perspectives. When they begin to recognise that often it isn’t capability holding them back, but the thoughts and beliefs that keep them playing small.
