BIO

Experienced, purpose-driven Non-Executive Chair and Systemic Leadership Team Coach. I bring high support and challenge to get to the heart of the matter and accelerate strategic outcomes. Business value is co-created by focusing on collaborative partnerships, customers, solid commercial performance, and an employer brand to be proud of.

 

I have been instrumental in setting up boards and governance structures, as well as evaluating effectiveness through insightful reviews and collective leadership capability. I am a loyal, caring person who brings the human touch to leadership teams and works alongside them to focus on their relationships to achieve their desired outcomes.
