Leading with purpose in complex systems
As a leadership coach, it matters to me to work with leaders who are driven by purpose — those shaping impact through people, not just performance. For CEOs and senior charity leaders, the pressures are uniquely human: balancing mission and sustainability, board expectations and staff wellbeing, personal conviction and organisational complexity.
My coaching helps you find clarity and energy within that tension. Together we explore how you lead — not just what you do — uncovering patterns, assumptions and internal narratives that may be holding you back. The result is greater self-awareness, renewed confidence and the ability to make values-led decisions that sustain both you and your organisation.
I bring over two decades of experience in leadership development and systems thinking, having worked across NGOs, universities and not-for-profits internationally. My approach combines Gestalt and Transactional Analysis with practical strategy — offering the space, structure and challenge senior leaders rarely get elsewhere.
I am also the co-founder and director of a not-for-profit CIC that offers Ethical Leadership Development Programmes to 20-35 year olds wanting to carve a career of impact – www.leadershipforgood.org
Clients describe my work as grounding and transformative:
“I came away clearer, calmer, and able to lead from conviction, not exhaustion.”
