Executive Coaching & Facilitation
Leadership development for people navigating pressure, complexity and change.
For over two decades I have partnered with ambitious leaders and global organisations to turn pressure into performance.
The business case
You have women with twenty years of specialist expertise who might be sitting a layer below where they should be.
They are capable ambitious, but what stops them is the strategy that got them this far - know more than anyone else in the room and never get caught out. This has a ceiling, and they tend to hit it about here.
It's also exhausting. Senior experts who run out of energy either leave or stay and go quiet.
What I offer
Cohort Programme. Six months with a group of eight to twelve senior women. Group sessions with one to one coaching running alongside.
One-day intensive Transformational Leadership, adapted for your organisation.
One to one executive coaching. Six months, for individuals you particularly want to keep and promote.
Outdoor coaching. A workshop format that gets your team out of the room. Indoor framing, the thinking done walking – a kind of outdoor breakout room, then back in to debrief.
Workshops and keynotes. Imposter moments, resilient leadership, self-leadership in high pressure environments.
My Approach
The Self Leadership Journey

My background

Ten years facilitating leadership development for medical scientists in global pharma. ICF Professional Certified Coach, and twenty-four years of practice as an Executive Coach and Facilitator.
There is one thing I understand about technical experts: A bricklayer can point at the wall but someone who’s spent monthsbuilding relationships with thought leaders and gathering insight has nothing at all to point at when the year ends, so they undervalue themselves. A great deal of my work starts in that gap.
