I believe the key to making a positive impact on business growth is the ability to build strong and trusted relationships, with clients and with teams. With trust comes greater innovation and risk taking enabled by a more secure, confident and collaborative environment.This belief comes from 25+ years working in media agencies across London, Sydney and New York where I have also established a solid foundation of operational excellence and media knowledge. Key categories include Toys, Retail, Luxury Auto, Finance and FMCG. Top tier global clients include Nike, LEGO, Jaguar Land Rover, Citi Bank, IKEA and Kimberley Clark.I am constantly looking for new ways to empower and grow our people, to help them become better leaders of themselves and of their teams. I am passionate about coaching and mentoring and support an inclusive approach to ensure everyone gets the chance to bring their best selves to work (and in life!).My motto is “Commit and make it happen” (thanks to Not Impossible Labs 😊)Experience• 25+ years of Media Agency experience in London, Sydney and New York, includes:• 7+ years Client Leadership & Operations experience, New York• 13+ years Client Leadership/ Planning experience, Sydney• 6 years Account Planning/ Media Research experience, London• 5+ years in Coaching and Mentoring programs, New YorkMemberships & Committees• ICF New York Chapter Member (International Coaching Federation)• Humanitarian Coaching Network (HCN) member and Pro-Bono Coach• She Runs It Mentor Program• THRIVE Mentor Program (Initiative Mentor Program)• CAP Advocate Program (MediaBrands Career Advancement Pilot)• IPG WLN Circle Mentor Program (Women’s Leadership Network)Certifications• Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC)• Associate Certified Coach (ACC)• Team Coaching Practitioner & Foundations Certified Coach (Global Team Coaching Institute)• Enneagram Personality Profile Fundamentals (Riso-Hudson, Enneagram Institute)• BA Social Psychology
