I believe coaching is about you finding out what's right and what's possible for you, your team, or your organisation, and then achieving it. Relational coaching helps to clarify thinking, address entrenched thoughts, behaviours, and emotions, and turn thoughts and ideas into firm plans for action and achievement. I believe in clear communication as the route to achieving all our aspirations and aims. Clarity of thought in how we communicate with ourselves, and clarity of our communications with others, our teams, colleagues, and clients.  My approach is to encourage and empower, assisting clients to reach their own conclusions and achieve goals they have set for themselves and their teams. I also share helpful tools and skills with clients, including mindfulness, self-belief, and methods for managing stress.

Leadership and Strategy Coaching

I am an accredited Relational Dynamics Coach and offer one to one coaching for creative practitioners in any discipline but particularly individuals in leadership roles or who produce or direct events, productions, or diverse and large creative teams. I also offer strategic development and leadership training for creative teams, management boards, and Directors and Trustees of charities and social enterprises within the creative sector.

From 2020 – 2022 I co-developed and delivered the ‘Leaders Unlimited’ creative development programme for emerging leaders in Dumfries and Galloway. In 2024, I facilitated team building and strategy development days for the Boards of DG Creative Wellbeing and D&G Chamber of the Arts.
