Experienced leader
in global growth and transformation

I have been fortunate enough to live and work around the world for the past 25 years, in the US, China, Germany, and Belgium, before returning to my native Scotland in 2018. I have led global companies to grow and transform, embracing the diversity that comes with being global and turning that into business results.

I have my feet firmly on the ground and I am equally comfortable running a plant briefing in India or presenting at a capital markets day hosted at Goldman Sachs.

My Ideas

As a CEO I have gained first-hand knowledge of the challenges and opportunities that come with leading a global business. The common denominator is people, and I was amazed time and time again by the depth of talent that this diverse world has to offer.

I am particularly interested in how a culture of inclusivity can set the stage for business success, and how unconscious bias can be an unseen roadblock to making progress on inclusion in the workplace.

When I knew I wanted to coach…

In 2010 I participated in the seven-week Advanced Management Program at Harvard Business School with 180 other leaders from all over the world. What I heard was that the challenges leaders were facing have a lot in common; they were not specific to one sector or business. They were all about people and leadership. It was then that I decided to become a business coach, but I wanted the psychological underpinning that I could combine with my business experience. Finally, in 2019, I completed the Meyler Campbell Mastered program which is accredited by the Association for Coaching (AC) and holds the EQA (European Quality Award) as conferred by EMCC (European Mentoring and Coaching Council).
