About Me

About myself & my experience

I am an ICF PCC credentialed coach specialising in leadership, career and transition management coaching. I am passionate about helping people and organisations figure out how to thrive and flourish in a world that is full of uncertainties. I love to see how impactful my coaching can be for people and to see the positive difference that happens in all aspects of their lives when they begin to experience the full value coaching brings. I am an experienced HR, business planning and strategic organisational design and development specialist with a zeal for people development, supporting individuals and organisations through change and growth. Having spent many years working with supporting the business planning, organisational development as well as people development of new institutions and entities, start-up periods, as well as through mergers and periods of strategic change I have developed a unique set of skills that allows me to strategically create alignment of both business and people focus of organisations to ensure the best results. I have coached specialists, managers and leaders to the next level of performance in their current role, or in support of their advancement, as well as small business owners in developing their business plans, direction, figuring out challenges in managing and scaling their business. I am also a public speaker regularly giving talks on career planning & the application of transformative coaching techniques & tools to enable work-life balance.

My coaching method & approach

As a transformational coach, working from evidence based positive and transpersonal psychology my coaching approach is developed to help people positively transform, grow and develop through periods of transition. Through deep and focused coaching conversations a shift from contextual-awareness to self-awareness is created which results in clients developing a greater understanding of what really matters most and truly aligns with their intention, enabling long-term sustainable transformation. Armed with this emerging understanding a clear path is created along with the ability to hold themselves accountable to what they want to achieve.

Notes / Remarks

I have over 10 years coaching & mentoring experience working directly with internal and external clients, from graduates, high-potential to senior leadership members in all business functions. I have over 20 years of experience in a variety of industries (government, logistics, Cultural & Creative industries, third level academic administration, retail and hospitality). My experience includes business planning, business performance management, leadership development, human capital advisory, management consulting, coaching, training, professional development and psychometric assessments. I have a particular interest and exposure to working with professionals from all backgrounds & experience in the cultural and Creative industries, having spent many years working with individuals in career planning, management & leadership development, professional and personal development, as well as more recently supporting and coaching SME CCI business owners.
