Organisations · Depth-Psychological Consultancy
For leadership teams, family enterprises, and the systems that depend on them.
Chotayah Organisations works in the space between coaching, HR process, and EAP provision, where the problem is relational, and the stakes are material.
The patterns that show up in a marriage show up in a boardroom in a different costume.
— Where the work lives —
Engagements are commissioned by HR directors, Chief People Officers, General Counsel, Operations Directors, family-enterprise principals, and family offices. The work is scoped privately with the commissioning sponsor; participants are briefed separately.
The consultancy arm draws on two distinct disciplines within the practice. Chiddie Anyasodo brings depth-psychological and group-dynamics analysis. Ben Anyasodo brings over a decade of applied behavioural research leadership across Jaguar Land Rover, HMRC, DWP, UKHSA, and MHRA. Engagements are designed jointly and led by whichever founder the shape of the work calls for.
Initial conversations are held in confidence, between the enquiring sponsor and the founders directly. No intermediaries. No pipelines.
— Why the standard approaches fall short
Coaching, HR process, and EAP are not built for the problems we are called into.
i
Executive coaching treats the individual.
Coaching is built around a single leader and their stated development goals. It cannot reach the relational and unconscious dynamics that make a team, a board, or a family enterprise behave as it does — which is why the same executive leaves coaching, returns to the system, and reverts within weeks.
ii
HR process treats the policy.
Grievance, disciplinary, and restructure processes are designed to produce defensible outcomes, not to change the underlying relational pattern. They often harden the pattern by formalising it. The case closes; the dynamic persists.
iii
EAP treats the symptom.
Employee assistance programmes route distress individually and briefly. They are calibrated for volume, not depth. For a founder in crisis, a senior leader visibly derailing, or a principal carrying a family-enterprise transition, EAP is not the right instrument and everyone involved knows it.
iv
The space between — held by us.
Chotayah is built for the problems that are too relational for coaching, too subsurface for HR, and too material for EAP. A depth-psychological reading of the dynamic, an applied-research frame for designing the intervention, and a senior pair of clinicians to carry the engagement.
The patterns that show up in a marriage show up in a boardroom in a different costume.
— Engagement forms
Four shapes the work takes.
01
Diagnostic
Depth-psychological diagnostic
A structured assessment of the relational dynamics inside a leadership team, a board, or a family enterprise. Conducted through one-to-one confidential interviews, observation of one or two live working sessions, and a written formulation delivered privately to the commissioning sponsor.
Outcome: a private formulation naming what is actually happening beneath the stated problem, and what kind of intervention — or non-intervention — would follow.

02
Intervention
Structured intervention
A facilitated programme of work with a leadership team, a board, or a family group, following on from the diagnostic. Combines group sessions, one-to-ones with key principals, and periodic reviews with the sponsor. Designed as a finite engagement with named objectives; extended only by mutual decision.
Outcome: a measurable shift in the relational dynamic, and — where appropriate — structural recommendations carried forward by the organisation

Advisory
Principal & board advisory
A long-frame advisory retainer with a founder, principal, chair, or chief executive — typically carrying a succession, a liquidity event, a founder transition, or a board-level difficulty with a named individual. Held privately, outside formal governance, and outside coaching.
Outcome: a senior private counsel relationship, held across the arc of the decision or transition. Not a deliverable; a relationship.

Mediation
Family-enterprise & senior mediation
Structured mediation of high-stakes relational breakdowns at senior level — co-founders, siblings in a family enterprise, next-generation succession disputes, or board-level conflict. Conducted under the Civil Mediation Council framework, with a clinical overlay that addresses what a purely legal mediation cannot.
Outcome: a durable settlement of the relational dispute, documented where appropriate, with onward clinical work offered privately to individuals who need it.

Where the work has been.
Led JOINTLY by
Chiddie Anyasodo and Ben Anyasodo..
Chiddie brings the clinical depth and the industry formation from a decade inside Schlumberger, Baker Hughes, and Siemens. Ben brings over a decade of applied behavioural research leadership across automotive, UK government, and private consultancy, with deep experience in how complex systems, teams, and individuals interact under pressure. Engagements draw on both capacities, matched to the specific situation.
The consultancy arm is grounded in the same clinical methodology as the private practice, applied inside the operational environments the engineering career taught her to read.
An initial conversation
First conversations are with the founders directly.
Initial enquiries for organisational engagements are received privately and handled by Chiddie and Ben directly. There is no intake team, no pipeline, and no sales process. The first conversation is a discreet call, usually forty-five minutes, held in confidence.
Chotayah — "find it" — a specialist integrative depth therapy practice grounded in psychoanalytic thinkings with an organisational consultancy arm.
