Counsellor
My interest and education grew out of soft skills/EQ almost 25 years ago now – who we are and how we relate, and operate, in the world. It is still the source of my passion for working with people; connecting with others to help them from where they are, to where they want to be.
I’m confident you have the answers and I really enjoy working with people to reflect and help unpack them. You own and drive your own change and I will help highlight and reflect those areas that will give you a helping hand.
You will also find my passion for people drives an interest in blogging about and discussing soft skills, and life in general; happiness, communication, conflict, teamwork, personality types, etc. I really like to hear from people on anything I post!
I worked for multi-nationals for over 20yrs in various technical, sales and leadership roles. My experience and qualifications working with people and teams helps with understanding and working with people on change in and out of professional contexts. Over this time I built the bulk of my coaching and mentoring skills working across teams and countries. Now I continue to specialise in counselling which I expect to be a never ending journey.
