Integration of difference into a cultural way of being
“I am fascinated by what makes people ‘tick’, and by what makes them fearful – difference, change, discomfort. I use my D&I experience, alongside my coaching and therapeutic skills, to help clients explore what’s really going on for them. And what’s stopping them from fulfilling their potential and ambition. I work with senior leadership, team leaders, teams and individuals to help them gain understanding about identity and motivation, and to help them develop their skills in empathy and self-reflection, enabling greater understanding of their organisation and themselves.”
