Strategy & Collaboration

When groups need to think differently, or collaborate on something important — how they work together matters.

I design and facilitate workshops that help people work together in more satisfying ways, and take some risks to get better results.

I’ve worked with leaders, teams and boards with clients like AstraZeneca, Imperial College, Shell, Mind, and the NHS.

I work with leaders who want to...

Navigate major transformations

Help your leadership team find shared direction while navigating ambiguity, change and complexity.

Get more from away days and off sites

Address tensions and knotty issues and invite fresh thinking for better alignment and decisions.

Improve group dynamics

Enhance the quality of relationships to support better communication and deeper conversations.

Deliver successful events

Design events and conferences where people get more involved to shape the outcomes.

What I do

I work with you to co-create sessions that are focused, engaging and productive.

That might include: leadership off sites for strategy and alignment, team away days, creativity sessions, conferences and events.

I’m an experienced facilitator who responds to what’s happening in the room – so the group stays focused, engaged and moving forward (even when the going is tough).

A few projects...

  • Leadership off site AstraZeneca
  • Strategy development EACH
  • Brand refresh Royal Dutch Shell
  • Stakeholder events University of Suffolk
  • All staff away day Essex Mind
  • Fresh thinking workshops NHS
  • Local workshops Community Climate Action
  • Facilitation training Britten Pears Arts

What's different?

Every session is tailored to the group, the situation and what needs to happen.

My background in consulting, communication skills training, and stage improvisation means I can design a strong structure and adapt in the moment — keeping the session responsive and alive.

This work often complements my team coaching and experiential learning programmes focused on relationships at work.

I help groups and teams:

  • get to what really matters
  • involve everyone in the conversation
  • work through differences productively
  • navigate complexity without getting stuck
  • unlock creativity and collective intelligence


If you’d like to chat about a project, just drop me an email to get the conversation started.

Leading with Facilitation

Do you want to help groups work better together?

I offer a two-day training programme that helps leaders design and facilitate sessions where everyone gets involved.
