You

You’re good at what you do…
Great job. But something isn’t working. That’s where I come in.

Does this sound like you?

    You’re good at what you do. You work hard. You get results. You’re known for doing a great job.

    But at some point your ability to nail a PowerPoint deck, build a financial model or run a complex project wasn’t enough anymore.

    Instead the core of your role is how you work with people. How you engage, communicate and build relationships.

    In short, you’re a leader. Except no one ever taught you those skills. You had to figure them out for yourself, or perhaps it felt like you were suddenly, magically expected to have them.

    More than that, now you’re in a leadership role people look to you. You have fewer peers, less support available, and greater pressure and expectations – both your own and from others.

    It can feel lonely, daunting, and frustrating. Especially when you’re used to being good at your job.

    Don’t worry, that’s where I come in.

      The good news

        1. How you feel is totally normal – and very common. So you can stop beating yourself up for not already being the leader you want to be.

        2. It isn’t magic, all of these skills can be learned. Many are simpler than you realise.

        3. You are capable of these things – you’ve already shown yourself to be committed and willing and able to learn, or you wouldn’t have got as far as you have.

        4. You don’t have to transform into someone else. In fact you will be your most effective as a leader when you fully embrace who you are as a perfectly imperfect human being.

        The bad news

          1. There’s no right way to lead – I can’t give you a formula, or a rulebook that will teach you in four easy steps how to to it. PLEASE retain a healthy scepticism of anyone who suggests they can.

          2. It takes practice. And that means sometimes it isn’t going to work, or you’ll get it wrong.

          3. To build these skills will require you to go beyond where you’ve gone before. By definition that will be outside your comfort zone, so it will likely be uncomfortable.

          4. It will take some time. So does anything worthwhile. But it is worthwhile.

          What you’ll get working with me

            I will challenge you, encourage you, help you see things about yourself in a way you’ve never seen before. You will deepen your self-awareness while building confidence and developing a toolkit of skills and behaviours to help you thrive in any situation.

            You’ll experience someone completely in your corner. Someone with an unshakeable belief in you, who is unafraid to say the things you need to hear to reach your next level. And I’ll do it all while helping you not take yourself too seriously – because if we can’t also enjoy what we do, I’m not interested!

              What I ask in return

                I don’t have a particular “kind” of client profile in terms of gender, age, career/life work focus, income range, geography etc.

                Instead, my clients share a common set of challenges, and a way of being.

                • They are committed
                • They are willing to do the work
                • They are curious and love to learn
                • They are open to deep self-reflection
                • They are ambitious for what comes next
