“Leaders have an outsize impact on the collective mindset — meaning the organizational culture. As they begin to change the way they think and feel, they’re more able to model new behaviors and communicate to others more authentically and persuasively.” -Tony Schwartz
About Me
For over 25 years, I've dedicated my career to helping leaders harness the power of communication to inspire and mobilize their teams towards achieving their business goals. Whether working with publicly-listed or private companies in high-pressure global environments, I bring a wealth of knowledge in strategy, strategic communication, and data-driven leadership development to the table.
Throughout my career, I've collaborated with executive leaders to achieve a range of objectives, from establishing and maintaining global brand reputation to implementing culture transformation, managing mergers and acquisitions, and designing leadership development interventions. By inspiring confidence in corporate strategies and initiatives, I've helped leaders steer their companies towards greater success.
These days, my focus is on working with companies that are on a journey of change or evolution - whether it's a startup that's scaling up, an established company that's pivoting its strategy, or a brand that's looking to better communicate its value to stakeholders. As a communication, brand, and leadership strategist, as well as a certified executive coach, I'm passionate about helping leaders connect with and engage their people so that everyone is aligned towards achieving the organization's goals. Together, we can help your company thrive.
My ‘Why’
I've been in the corporate game for thirty years now, and I have come to learn there's nothing more important than having a clear sense of purpose. I've seen it time and time again - those who understand how their skills and drive contribute to the bigger picture, they're the ones who get things done. But those who are just going through the motions, well, they're not doing anyone any favors.
That's where connection comes in. When you can connect the dots between what you're doing and what the company is trying to achieve, that's when the magic happens. People get inspired, they get motivated, and they start making things happen. And that's not just good for them - it's good for the company too.
That's why I'm all about helping companies communicate their purpose clearly and effectively. When people understand how they fit into the grand scheme of things, when they see how their work matters, they're going to thrive. And that's what it's all about - helping people thrive.
