My responsibility is to contribute to the delivery of WFP's People Strategy, to build the capability, talent and career development frameworks that provide the new grounding in how WFP manages its people and careers. In order to do this, I work on global talent deployment, special change management projects, HR policy and strategic development, career frameworks, workforce planning, performance and L&D program development.Specifically, my experience to date is:• Enable WFP's new approach to the promotions of senior level professionals to the P5 and D1 grades, by identifying and implementing new HR policy, designing and implementing a Talent Review, supporting and engaging executives to conduct the Talent Review and support of the delivery of external development and assessment centres to identify critical talent for future leadership positions. • Lead the design and implementation of WFP's Career Development Frameworks. This comprehensive 18-month project involved the identification of the new core and functional capability models across 12 core functional areas, career pathing, career management and talent analytics. The implementation has involved development of career principles, the career management website, toolkits for managers and staff, workshops and integration of the career framework as a strategic talent management tool.• Lead the team to identify, manage and implement organisational change in Global Talent Deployment of the International Professional Staff category. Currently being implemented, the changes reach across the full spectrum of HR transformation - engaging key leaders, developing communications, enacting policy consultation and change management, developing content and managing team performance.• Support new promotions and performance management processes by designing and delivering capability development initiatives, such as workshops, toolkits, guidelines and HR business partnership for Regional Directors.

While I am still working for the UN, I am also a coach. I work with smart people ready to bring about the change they wish to see in their lives and in the world. My clients are experienced in this miracle we call life, and now, they hear the whisper inside for a deeper and more meaningful contribution, to go from good to great, and to realise even bigger challenges they set for themselves. They know the best is yet to come, and I help them to dream big, gain clarity, stay focused, see what holds them back and make resonant choices. I apply my 20 years experience in adult learning and development, as well as Co-Active Coaching and powerful principles of psychology and neuroscience, to help people engage in creating what they want for themselves, their communities, our environment and the planet.
