About

When people and teams find their rhythm, everything starts to work.

NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Russell Taylor

Ritmo360 was born from the frontline, not from theory. I led under pressure in the Royal Navy Submarine Service, then on executive teams in multibillion-pound businesses. Across submarines and boardrooms, one truth held firm:

- Performance is forged through people. Through trust, relationships, clarity, belief, and purpose.

That’s what Ritmo360 delivers, for individuals and teams.

Performance is human before it’s operational.

Change doesn't start with systems or charts. It starts with people, with trust, relationships, purpose, and belief.

Be gentle, for everyone is fighting a great battle.

Every leader carries something unseen. Our work honors that, with compassion, respect, and no judgement.

People only believe what they discover for themselves.

We don't give you answers. We create the safety and challenge for you to find your own. Discovery sticks; advice rarely does.

Our Mission

At Ritmo360, we work with leaders who want to lead more authentically and with purpose, in tune with who they are, especially in the moments that matter most.

For some, that’s stepping into a new role, a reorganization, a new board, a new boss, or a leadership team that needs to find its feet.

For others, it’s a team that’s busy and not aligned, new members, shifting priorities, a strategy refresh, or external pressures, regulatory or market, that change the rules overnight.

And sometimes it’s more personal, the quiet sense that your role doesn’t fit any more. That you’ve outgrown it, or it’s outgrown you. That you never paused to ask, what’s my next evolution?

Wherever you are, leading through transition, under pressure, or simply carrying more than you can share, we help you find clarity, rebuild trust, and move forward with purpose, and with care.

From submarines to boardrooms, we’ve led through pressure and transition ourselves. Now we coach leaders and teams to do the same, with care, with courage, and in the work.

"This was one of the most impactful interventions I’ve ever experienced and then taken to another level by Russell’s exceptionally skilled facilitation."

- Leading Australian Bank-General Manager

"Russell has an amazing and incredibly rare gift, the ability to genuinely inspire teams and individuals to unleash confidence and potential that they didn’t know or believe they possessed"

- Telco Executive

"You are a true professional and, in many respects, a ‘genius’, seriously. Your incredible strategic ability combined with an even stronger drive to succeed is an incredibly powerful combination."

- Strategic & Human Leadership-Executive Director, Telco

Why I Do It

We’ve lived rich experiences, from military service to executive roles in billion-pound businesses, non-executive board positions, founding and exiting a business, and over 20 years of coaching in the work.

We know what derails performance. And we know how to help you move forward, positively, quickly, and with clarity.

1:1 CEO Coaching

"Recently I met Russell and after being given the opportunity to engage in a professional coaching relationship with him I feel like I have had the opportunity to be transformed rather than only be exposed to coaching and learning opportunities.

Why, because Russell ‘found me’. From the other side of the planet, he helped me realise who I am, what skills are in my gift and how these can ensure both business and self-success.

Russell is an insightful, caring, smart and challenging coach. He is a deep listener and is able to provide the safest of spaces for you to explore opportunities, barriers to success, but most of all to help you find your own light! He makes you work hard, but as we all know, the best of things takes time, effort, and energy, and don’t come easily."

Leadership Team Intervention - Health Care Executive

"I knew we were effective individually but weren't working together as a whole as well as we should. Working with Russell we truly broke down pre-conceptions, delivered breakthroughs and enabled us to come together as a team for truly the first time.

In the course of a morning, we were closer, more open and driven as a team that I can imagine we would have achieved over twelve months following the status quo.

Russell's insight, care and genuine belief in everyone in the room enabled him to offer touching insights, reflection and advice to individuals at moments of personal vulnerability and personal

honesty. Russell's expertise, compassion and expression of care has made an indelible mark on people in ways that I can't explain."

Leadership Clarity & Courage - Operations Director

"You helped me face my fears and stand up for myself. I always had it within me, but you helped me see it. 12 months later, I am a confident leader who gives her best to her team and most importantly to herself”.

“You have helped me realise that it’s ok for me to step out of my comfort zone and try new things and most importantly feel more confident in believing in myself. I know that everything you have said and done for me has helped me grow as an individual professionally and personally and I will forever have your voice in the back of my mind."
