How I Work

Co-creating clarity, flow, and fit-for-purpose ways of working — with care.

I don’t believe in generic solutions.

Every organisation, every leader, and every team brings a unique pattern of tensions, strengths, and possibilities.
My role is to help you make sense of that complexity — and move through it with intention.

Through a mix of coaching, facilitation, and advisory support, I help shift how people show up, how systems interact, and how work gets done — all in service of more human, more effective collaboration.

Principles I Work By

  • Context shapes everything. I meet each client where they are — no recycled blueprints.

  • Relationships over roles. How people connect often matters more than how they’re structured.

  • Start where there’s energy. Change begins where people are already leaning in.

  • Working agreements over wishful thinking. We move from ideas to experiments, with clarity on who’s holding what.

  • Human pace, sustainable rhythm. I don’t believe in urgency as a virtue. We move fast when it makes sense — and slow when it matters.

A Typical Arc of Collaboration

While no engagement is exactly the same, most follow a loose rhythm:

1. Discovery
We start with listening: your context, your questions, what’s emerging.

2. Co-design
Together, we shape the format, pace, and depth of our work.

3. Engagement
I support, facilitate, or coach as needed — with feedback loops throughout.

4. Reflection & Next Steps
We look at what’s shifted and what’s next.

🧩 Depending on your context, I may show up as a gardener, tending to the conditions for growth;
a sherpa, sharing the burden and reading the terrain;
a weaver, connecting threads into meaning;
or a sparring partner, holding up a mirror and challenging what needs to shift.

My Stance

I bring both structure and spaciousness.

I create environments where people can reflect, untangle tensions, and experiment safely — all without losing sight of outcomes or direction.

You can expect a working relationship that’s calm, grounded, and responsive.
I bring clarity and thoughtfulness when things feel complex or fast-moving, and hold space for what’s not yet fully clear.
I’m comfortable naming the tension in the room, but also making space for a moment of humour when it’s needed.

I trust that systems — and people — know how to evolve, given the right conditions.
My work is about helping those conditions take shape.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

Depending on your needs, we might work together in any of the following ways:

  • 1:1 partnership — leadership development, mentoring, or advisory support

  • Team development and facilitation — retros, offsites, tension-resolving sessions

  • Organisational consulting — mapping ways of working, aligning across silos, clarifying roles

What’s consistent across all formats is my style:

  • Calm presence and steady pace

  • Systems thinking with a human touch

  • Lighthearted but serious — making space for both depth and ease

  • Wide knowledge, focused attention — connecting the dots without overwhelming

  • Light structures that adapt with you
