Your leadership's experienced.
Your team's smart.
How is performance?
When growth targets accelerate, teams merge, or competition intensifies, instinct isn't enough. The Circle Line gives leaders the behavioural data to act with precision - not guesswork.
Are your people match-fit?
The cost of average.
Lacklustre performance manifests in measurable declines across your business. At worst it can lead to reputational damage, loss of clients and ultimately the downfall of your business.
Stress and poor mindset are your biggest hidden attrition risk.
75% of executives seriously considered quitting their jobs for better wellbeing support. A record 622 CEOs left their positions during Q1 2024. Losing their knowledge, experience and perhaps clients that leave with them... priceless?
Workplace relationships are the leading driver of grievances. In 2023,

Our Expertise
Our platform is built and delivered by accredited psychotherapists who've worked inside major organisations. We understand corporate culture from the inside - and we have the psychological tools to change it.
Philippa Richardson
Founder & Transactional Analyst Psychotherapist
The magic of The Circle Line is that we marry the key ingredients for sustainable high performance.
I founded The Circle Line following a career as a litigator at Dentons, head of marketing in the property development industry, and subsequent retraining as a psychotherapist. I hold a BSc (Hons) Psychology and P.g.Dip. in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy, and built the platform to translate clinical-grade behavioural insight into tools organisations can actually use. The Circle Line's TA-based psychometric model draws on 70 years of empirically validated psychology - applied directly to leadership performance.
We help your leaders:
Grow revenue - improve money-making mentality and client relationship growth by identifying and changing the patterns that limit your sales ability.
Improve leadership - You manage processes, you lead people. Leadership is all about relationships. That's our bread & butter.
Maintain morale - our technology visualises the behaviour patterns across your leadership so you can see what's getting in the way.
