Hello there! I'm thrilled you're here and interested in developing as a leader. The content of the Positively Leading Show is shaped by the questions that I’ve been asked in my two decades of leadership, my 1:1 and team coaching sessions, and from my training programmes. It's also shaped by my learning, research, experiences, and from all my teachers and wonderful colleagues over the years. 

You don’t need to go on a year-long leadership development programme to develop how you think, feel, and act as a leader. In fact, my research with leaders showed that some of the most powerful learning was from short courses, books, podcasts, articles – the most important thing was relevance, application, and reflection. 

Join me and subscribe to Positively Leading – you'll be surprised at the difference just 20 minutes a week can make to your leadership!
