Hi. I'm the co-founder of Swim, a leadership consultancy that works with creative companies to help emerging and experienced leaders to grow their ability to lead with creativity, humanity and impact.As the former Co-Chief Creative Officer of ad agency, Ogilvy & Mather, I was a creative leader for many years. Now, as a consultant, trainer and coach, I bring real world leadership experience, empathy and creativity to coaching leaders, and designing programs and processes that use creative tools and techniques to help them motivate others. Swim's unconventional approach to closing the leadership gap in creative companies has been noted by Forbes, Fast Company and others. We work around the world with ad agencies, design firms, media companies, publishers, architects, bankers, fashion retailers, tech companies, marketers and others interested in building successful, collaborative, creative cultures. As the co-author of the women's career guide, Darling You Can't Do Both (And Other Noise To Ignore On Your Way Up), named among Inc. magazine's top 60 best leadership books by women, I also design coaching programs that address the unique challenges (and opportunities) faced by women in creative businesses. I'm represented by the National Speaker's Bureau and ADN, and speak frequently across North America on leadership, creativity and gender diversity.
