Welcome to my website. Having worked for Mars for 14yrs and now for myself, at Winning Performance associates Ltd, for over 10 years I have a wealth of experience in coaching, management development and business facilitation. This has been built upon actual breadth and depth of business competence coupled with a significant understanding of people through experience and diverse professional development such as NLP Master Practitioner, Motivational Profiling and various coaching/ training programmes.
I have worked for many different industries within the Corporate, Public and �not for profit� Sectors, each with their own cultural nuances and business focuses to be respectful of. And within that, each function/ team develops its way of doing business to deliver what is required which needs to be taken into account. And within that, there are people at every level of the organisation, many of whom I have worked with, striving to be valued and to work towards a meaningful purpose. Working with clients in America, EMEA and Latin America has added yet another dimension.
Having completed my electrical engineering degree at Imperial College, London, I went on to join Mars. During this time I worked predominantly within operations, managing different teams such as production, quality and L&D. Not only did I gain a wealth of understanding through managing people, I also coached, trained and facilitated individuals and teams (dept & project). This has brought a �real-ness� to my style, which people find refreshing, as well as thought-provoking and inspirational. It brings a �real-ness� to the coaching conversations and training workshops where my focus is on developing competency and a change in actual outcomes, be that at work or elsewhere within someone�s life.
Running a coaching practice group, writing articles, supervising other coaches and mentoring a number of fledgling freelancers helps me to maintain an outward looking stance where I can both learn and be generous to others.
