Coaching for what comes next.
Whether you're navigating a career change, redundancy, stepping into leadership, building a business or working through an important professional decision, coaching gives you the space, structure and support to move forward with clarity and confidence.
We combine practical coaching with mindset, habits and systems so you don't just decide what to do next. You build the confidence and momentum to actually do it.
What we can help with
You don't need to arrive with the answer. We can work on the practical challenge in front of you, the bigger decision behind it, or both.

Get to Know Me
Anton Rademan is the founder of Growth Lab and a career, leadership and business coach based in Christchurch, New Zealand.
​
Before building Growth Lab, Anton spent more than 15 years working across corporate environments including banking, technology, energy, automotive and software.
His work has spanned operations, delivery, leadership, Agile and organisational change, often alongside people and teams navigating uncertainty, pressure and significant professional transitions.
​
That experience shaped a practical view of coaching.
Capable people rarely need more generic advice. They need space to think, someone willing to challenge the right assumptions and a clear way to turn insight into action.
​
Today, Anton works with professionals navigating career change or redundancy, leaders stepping into greater responsibility and founders working through important business decisions.
​
His coaching combines clarity, challenge and accountability with Growth Lab's Mindset + Habits + Systems approach, helping clients make better decisions, move forward with confidence and build sustainable momentum.
​
Anton holds a Graduate Certificate in Professional Coaching from Southern Institute of Technology, is a Certified Transformational Coach and is a Hogan-certified practitioner.
​
He is also co-author, with JJ de Vos, of Beyond the Cliff, a leadership audiobook exploring a people-first approach to building high-performing cultures through the 5X Performance Triangle.
​
Based in Christchurch, Anton works with clients in person locally and online worldwide.
