MEANING-FULL Teams, MEANING-FULL Leadership. MEANINGFUL OUTCOMES.

I help leaders and their teams connect, create and deliver impact

I work with leaders, teams and organisations that want to build great teams that really work.

Through training and facilitation workshops, presentations, coaching and mentoring, I work alongside you to establish and embed the 5 fundamentals of great teams: A strong and clear purpose, enabling conditions, clear direction, strong connections and meaning-full leadership.

Whether you need to build all 5 fundamentals, or have just one or two missing, I tailor my work to help you where you need it most.

When all 5 are in place, they lead to increased productivity, increased engagement, greater trust and confidence, and more positive impact, and your teams loving what they do. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

ONCE UPON A TEAM

If I asked you "So, what does your team do?" what would you say? Would you tell me with excitement in your voice, a smile on your face and a twinkle in your eye? Or would you inwardly groan, grimace a little awkwardly, and then say what the title of your team is, and what the business plan words are that says what you do? (Which, in a most cases, isn't actually what you do...).

Imagine if your staff could articulate their role in a way that made people want to know more!

Imagine if when you stand up at forums and events and tell people what you do, people actually listened! AND remembered you because you stood out from all the others...

And imagine if your team was not only connected to what they do everyday, and the value they bring, but also know and can tell people how they fit into the big picture!

Building your Team Story makes this come to life. It raises team engagement, connection, passion and purpose, and helps your team really own the value that they deliver to the organisation, customers & community.

If you would love to create and tell your team story in a way that is meaningful, engaging, and most of all has impact (for the listener and the sharer) then this workshop is for you.

Lets chat about how we can make this happen - life's too short for a boring team story!

I'm passionate about helping teams love what they do, find meaning in their work, and create and deliver outcomes that are meaningful and have impact - for their teams, their organisations and their customers.

I'm all about helping leaders and teams build commitment and engagement, and, productive and effective teams. Teams that are clear on their purpose, the direction they are heading, how and what they need to do to get there, and are connected to each other, their roles and their customers.

I have worked in leadership roles for two decades, in the private and public sectors and in complex businesses (IT, Manufacturing, Arts & Culture, Venues & Events, and Innovation and Co-design). I now run my own business helping leaders build teams that are aligned, connected and execution focused, so that ultimately they can create and deliver outcomes that add new value for their customers and communities.

My work helps leaders, teams and organisations put the fundamentals in place to build great teams. When these are in place, my clients experience greater chemistry, greater clarity and greater confidence, to keep up with the pace of change and deliver value, faster more effective than they ever thought possible.

So, if you are ready to start on a journey of more meaning-full leadership, build meaning-full teams, that deliver meaningful outcomes, lets start talking today.
