What is your passion and mission?
Why do you do what you do?

ILM Level 5 Coaching & Mentoring, Insights Discovery, Motivational Maps, NLP Master Practitioner, British Psychological Society Level A&B Intermediate Plus in Psychometric Testing.
What is the most interesting Blue Gnu project you've worked on?
My favourite project so far was working with a diverse and energetic recruitment team on Insights Team Effectiveness. As well as developing the leadership team themselves, the purpose of this session was to help their internal client practitioners prepare to deliver this workshop for their own clients. It was a fun and engaging session which has already led to positive changes in how the LT operate and a number of successful Team Effectiveness sessions run by their own coaches.
Who would your dream client be and why?
I am a huge dog lover and I suffered with hearing issues as a child so my dream job would be to run a session for the leadership team at Hearing Dogs for the Deaf. They are a charity who do great work 'to train clever dogs to help deaf people' . Their mission is to help deaf people maintain their independence and overcome loneliness. I have visited the cafe at their HQ in the Chilterns and it was such a welcoming dog-friendly environment.
