Work with me

I work with leaders and their boards to articulate what it is they want to achieve strategically and then develop leaders and teams with the mindset, confidence and skills to do the work.

My expertise lies in working with organisations to establish a culture of openness in which people and ideas can thrive, difficult subjects can be tackled rather than avoided, and new solutions found to intractable problems.

Strategy development:

creates a space where fresh insights can emerge
balances ambition alongside commercial reality and resource constraints
creates a powerful narrative of change and a realistic plan for achieving it
draws on collective intelligence and the diversity of lived experience of staff members and wider communities as a strategic asset.

Leadership development:

My one-to-one coaching, leadership team and board development offer helps leaders:

model the leadership style and values they want to replicate across their organisation
step back and reflect on what is really going on beneath the organisational surface
deal with ambiguity and use “I don’t know” as a position of strength rather than weakness
tackle the difficult conversations with confidence.

My team coaching:

translates strategy and the values behind it into new behaviour, actions and delivery.
equips teams to navigate organisational road blocks and create new opportunities
strengthens team collaboration and shared sense of purpose
empowers team members to draw on collective organisational intelligence to identify ways forward.

And this is what I won't do...

I won’t come in and tell you what the answer is; I will give you, your board and your team the skills and space to identify answers for yourselves.

I won’t ignore the difficult conversations that need to be had; I will give you, your board and your teams the confidence and skills to open new dialogues and find new destinations as a result.

So what can I do for you?

To begin a conversation or to find out more, please send me an email and request a free 45 minute consultation. I’m always happy to talk.
