Helen enjoys working with individuals and teams who are focused on achieving their goals and building a fulfilling career – individuals who are keen to take time to reflect and have their thinking challenged. She works with clients to build a safe environment that provides time to step back from the day to day role and explore personal drivers, mindsets, behaviours and desired outputs. Her approach is informed by a variety of psychological theories and perspectives and she is adept at creating a supportive and non-judgemental environment where clients can be their true, authentic selves. During leadership development workshops she is focused on creating an energised environment that encourages sharing of experiences, challenge and bravery to try new things and learn new skills. The focus throughout is how to transfer key learnings back to the workplace to ensure the learning journey continues. Most of all, across all her work, she is passionate about ensuring her coaching and learning interventions lead to tangible change for her clients.
