Started this exciting role with Future Talent Learning as of September 2022. Currently working as a Leadership Development Coach focusing on Level 3 and Level 5 managers and leaders.My main passion has always been to develop individual leaders/managers to become the person they want to be and an absolute asset to themselves and the company they work in.I aim to develop those skills that can have the greatest impact in the workplace and our personal environments ; most notably emotional intelligence and our own self-balance, how to be more empathic with ourselves and others, how to communicate with absolutely anyone and being aware of our own emotions and how they can become a positive part of our overall character. When a leader/manager focuses and improves these areas themselves then the knowledge required to be effective in their roles will become second nature.
