What's exciting and different about this programme?

 This programme is based on my 40 years of professional expertise as a leader and manager across diverse settings, from CQSW/MA training as a Social Worker, to roles in community mental health, Rape Crisis, and Probation, to being a successful CEO of a National volunteering organisation. Since launching my freelance business in 2002, I have worked with over 150 organisations including the DfEE, Government, Unicef UK, The National Trust, The LGBT Consortium, and the YMCA movement. I am a renowned speaker, activist, and award-winning leader who has consistently delivered impact at every level.

After having three children as a solo mum in my 40’s, I led the Newham National Childbirth Trust Branch to national award-winning status. Over the years, I have coached and collaborated with thousands of people through consultancy, organisational programmes, and groupwork offerings such as Arty Mummas Art therapy, Non-Managerial Supervision, Creative Coaching, and Executive Coaching. My work is delivered through an intersectional empowerment, trauma-informed framework, integrating somatic, energetic, and transpersonal approaches, shaped by 25 years as a client in psychoanalysis. Most recently, I’ve developed Action Learning Programmes for the GLA High Street Network with Architecture00 and JAP Projects while running a thriving group and 1:1 coaching practice.

Helping people grow as leaders is one of my passions. I am committed to ensuring women leaders have the support to succeed in today’s ‘wild west’ workplace culture by creating regenerative and responsive spaces. My mission is to help people face the big challenges of leadership with purpose, benefiting not only ourselves, but also our families, relationships, communities, systems, and the planet. The better we can be at good leadership and leadership for good, the better for all of us.
