My Approach

I am here to help you develop:
- Greater change readiness and Ai adaptability across teams and individuals.
- A strengthened ability to assess where Ai can enhance processes, informed by personality-driven approaches to risk tolerance, creativity, and communication.
- A forward-thinking organisational culture that balances human strengths, and preference awareness, with the strategic deployment of AI technology.

1:1 & Team Coaching

What are your goals? Let's develop an in-depth understanding of you, as you come to your role - what do you need to achieve your goals?

I've been consulting for 10+ years and I love what I do - I'm passionate about supporting clients on their road to success, and watching them soar.

Networks

If you work within complex organisations and environments, your, and your team's sphere of influence isn't always clear - working with Ai can also create network complexities.

I reveal hidden potential through examining how you relate to your role and your wider network - what potential are you not seeing?

We work together to lever that potential and create real change.

Toolkit

To illuminate your unique talents, we can assess at your personality type, and hidden leadership style. I hold a Master's Degree in leadership in organisational systems, and hold Advanced Coach accreditation.

I work to understand complexity, and resistances to change and leadership. My toolkit helps shine a light on your future direction, and I support you as we pursue your goals.

How can MBTI and AI inform each other?

Understanding your MBTI type isn’t just about personality—it’s about unlocking your potential to navigate the future. As organizations increasingly adopt AI, knowing how your personality influences problem-solving and communication helps you and your team harness AI’s capabilities effectively. Whether it’s aligning AI tools with your preferred way of processing information or addressing concerns with innovation, MBTI awareness provides the self-knowledge and confidence to embrace these opportunities.

About Me:

As a certified MBTI practitioner specializing in Steps 1 and 2, I offer personalized and group coaching to help you understand and leverage your unique strengths. My approach combines psychological insights with actionable strategies, backed by a system-psychodynamic master's degree in leadership. With additional training in Action Learning and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I bring a holistic approach to personal and professional development.

Sustainable Growth:

We believe that sustainable growth begins with deep self-awareness. Using the MBTI framework, I guide individuals and teams in exploring their personality types, identifying strengths, and addressing challenges. This foundation enhances not only personal and team dynamics but also equips organisations to navigate modern challenges, such as adapting to new technologies like AI. By understanding how personality influences decision-making, creativity, and collaboration, clients are better positioned to embrace innovation.

2024's Leadership Signposts

For many leaders, the future of work post-pandemic and with the rise of AI/AGI is critical.

Expectations from work are evolving, and coaching and consultancy can facilitate these essential conversations.

I lead a Tavistock research group on AI/AGI using System-Psychodynamic consultancy tools. With GPT-5 and Google’s Bard, Generative AI is transforming market research, design, and content creation; job roles are changing every week.

Leaders must balance power with responsible leadership, whilst retaining vision of Ai's capabilities and ever-changing potential.

Most organizations have tried hybrid work, but how do we assess and optimize it? I'm here to help you navigate these challenges.

I've coached teams to clarify their vision, boost effectiveness, and build stronger relationships with each other and key stakeholders. Consultancy focuses on excelling in new roles, developing leadership skills, improving confidence, managing stress, enhancing impact, and, often, addressing interpersonal challenges.

:: Values and Governance ::

My values

I explore psychological safety and its connection to purpose and potential. Without this grounding, it's impossible to soar. As a consultant, I undertake supervision to address and resolve challenges, ensuring a 'clean pair of hands.' My clinical work as a CBT Psychotherapist reinforces this.

As an Industrial Design student in the Erasmus program, I embraced Berlin's efficiency and environmental stewardship—core personal values. At Northern Trust, I managed global ESG sustainability reporting and led EMEA ESG initiatives, employee engagement, and diversity. I was also active in the bank's LGBTQIA+ network.

I help embed ESG purpose and values and audit ESG governance and innovation for HM The King's Royal Warrant Holders, a group of 800 companies. This sense of governance drives my passion for Ethical and Well-Governed Ai, and designing Ai interventions focused on driving business goals.

Volunteering is important to me. I've been a trustee for Hackney City Farm, The Corporation of London's Environmental Committee, and CoMo UK, and have also served as Chair of School Governors. Read more about our peer-reviewed research into changing values in our Blog section.

I'm a keen cyclist and freshwater swimmer and take part in the Swimathon every year, to raise funds for Cancer Research UK.

I'm working towards my pilot's licence - you can see why soaring beyond what you thought possible, and achieving everything that's within you, along with your teams' potential, is the currency I most bring to my coaching and consultancy approach and stance.

My foundations

I hail from Southeast Ireland, born into a family where farming and hunting led to some record-breaking feats. My dad, an award-winning marksman and fisherman, shared a deep spirituality with my mum, a clinician passionate about art and crafts. This blend of precision and creativity inspired me in my early years.

As a child, I had a stammer, which taught me patience and self-kindness—values I still hold dear.

My stammer also meant I didn't learn Irish. Nonetheless, this keen linguist, rediscovered my love for languages in secondary school, thanks to a patient French teacher. I went on to learn Italian and German. I loved drawing, maths, and psychology, and was passionate about cars and motorbikes.

I look back very fondly to key teachers and professors who nurtured my talents - and who created safe spaces for me to explore my abilities; they inspire my approach to coaching and organisational consultancy.
