I’m an experienced leadership coach working with leaders and teams to help them create and sustain high performance. As an award-winning theatre director and script editor in TV drama, I have first-hand experience of building and leading multi-disciplinary teams. Theatre has given me a deep understanding of how we communicate. I’m a specialist in leadership presence as well as speaker, script and story coaching. How to show up. How to deliver memorable messages. How to use stories. I draw on practical rehearsal room techniques to help my clients create a persuasive and confident style, whilst staying true to who they are.“What seemed like a fairly daunting day proved to be extremely useful, really fun and totally eye opening to see how much someone can improve on a skill that people often seem to think “you’ve simply got or you haven’t got!” Head of Corporate Fundraising, Broadcasting industries  “Truly memorable and inspiring…. helped me gain real awareness of my development needs about my impact in a granular way. Critically, it also gave me practical tools to help me address those needs.” Partner, ConsultingI’m highly skilled in team facilitation, designing and delivering bespoke away days and off-sites.
