A few years ago I time out for family reasons and while doing so, I studied for a professional coaching qualification with Full Circle Global. Through intensive training and practice, I completed my training as a qualified professional coach, recognised by the International Coaching Federation (ICF).

In 2019 I undertook further training as an executive coach, with The Rubicon Partnership, which brought a fresh focus and approach to guiding and challenging business leaders. I now split my time between supporting clients directly and through The Rubicon Partnership.

I’ve seen the hugely positive effect coaching has on people, and what a powerful tool it is for helping people move forward.

We don’t often get the chance to be open and completely honest and to be listened to by someone with no agenda or judgement. If you or someone you would like to know more about my coaching just email me and we can arrange an informal chat before considering a coaching programme.

Marketing and non-executive director positions

As well as extensive experience in marketing communications, I have a strong background in digital marketing, website development and service design. See my LinkedIn profile for my previous experience.

I was also a Non-Executive Director of Castle Community Bank. from 2016 to 2021, this new online, not for profit bank is offering savings and loans to the wider community, including the financially disadvantaged.

As a non-executive director with Castle Community Bank, my remit was to  advise on the strategic plan for growth. Bringing in new capital and building IT capability to support a not for profit online loans and savings business that challenges high cost lenders.

In March 2017, I took up a 3 year term as a Non-Executive Director with Scottish Golf. My focus was to help the team gain customer insight to help shape a new future for the game in Scotland. The strategy has seen the design, build and development of a new digital infrastructure for golf clubs and golfers, that has so far seen over 250,000 golfers sign up to the app and over 250 golf clubs enabled to run there golf operations and marketing through the digital platform.  

I’d be happy to meet up and have a coffee to discuss either coaching or chat about your business challenges. Just email me.
