My Story

I am passionate about supporting individual learning and growth; enabling people to reach their full potential and bring their unique selves to their roles; with colleagues, with service users, in teams and as leaders.

With a background in learning and development and a focus on leadership development, I have over 20 years’ experience as a leader and learning professional.

I started my career at the Audit Commission, leading its highly successful graduate development scheme, developing future leaders across the Audit and Accountancy sector.

My most challenging but rewarding work was in Health and Social Care where I led Learning and Development and OD teams, operationally and strategically and most recently with the NHS South West Leadership Academy where I supported system-wide Leadership and Organisational Development, with a focus on Inclusion and Compassionate Leadership.

Through this work I have developed a passion for developing inclusive cultures that enable and encourage equality and diversity; creating the conditions for everyone to develop their leadership capability, reach their potential and be their best selves at work.

"You know your destination, we have the tools and techniques to get you there."

My Mission

My mission is to enable people and organisations to flourish.

I am passionate about:

The power of human connections as the foundation for leadership,
The ability of individuals and organisations to learn, adapt and grow,
Creating the conditions that release and sustain this human potential, and
Respecting and engaging with human differences so everyone can bring their unique, best selves to work and flourish.
