My favourite saying is "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you have always imagined". This is exactly what I have done. I have spent most of my career in IT sales until 9 years ago when after attending the Stephen Covey 7 Habits course I knew selling IT was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I then transitioned my career into Leadership Development and in particular helping teams discover and use their unique Strengths to meet both business and personal objectives. Why?I believe that the Manager and Leader is key to the employee experience and success. You have the most important job, developing your people when you coach them to use their CliftonStrengths, they help your team and the whole organization succeed.A strengths-based approach to leading your team pays off for more than the bottom line. When I work with Individuals, Managers and Teams we work to specific outcomes that we can measure. Instead of 'doing' strengths I help your organisation become Strengths based. Organisations I have worked with have seen:Over 35% reduction in staff turnoverOver 15% increase in productivityIncreases in employee engagementGreater collaboration to better serve clientsCompanies I have worked with include SEEK, Nab, Mercer, Telstra, NGS Super, TAC, Hologic, Orica, Victoria University.I have been a Gallup Accredited Coach and ICF Coach for over 6 years and am one of Australia's most experienced Coach and Facilitators using Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment.I am also a Learning Republic Revolutionary using 'Issues Based' coaching and Leadership development to get a better return on investment for Learning programs to create lasting impact.
