I was out and about on Saturday wandering along a row of shops waiting for a girlfriend who was running late, and I am always early. 

When I left university my first career role was selling advertising space in computer magazines, admittedly not the sexiest role I have ever had.

With just about every woman I coach who works in business I find myself having the same conversations and one in particular is around the ‘game of business’

I have two dogs, a standard poodle and a toy poodle, “Mango” and “Smoothie” don’t ask me about their names… that’s a story for another day and nor are they my password.

I have just spent a glorious day with a new client that impressed me greatly by their willingness to polish and review how they present and communicate with clients.

In our relationships, we have communication habits or patterns. We might finish off a partner’s sentence, or have certain topics that are no go areas, some of these communication patterns are cute and endearing, and some are unhealthy.

In workshops I love using my Conversation Style Game, M.O.D.E. We all have different conversation styles: Minders, Organisers, Directors and Enthusiasts and in my workshops, in between the laughter, there are so…

Our instincts are our best guide in life yet for many of us we have stopped listening to our instincts (our gut feel) and instead, we have let our rational mind (or not so rational mind) over ride….

I spend a lot of time coaching people on developing their personal brand and helping them make great first impressions. So much of it is around body language and facial expressions, the stuff we often don’t even think…

A quick trip to the supermarket I say. I’ll be in and out in 10 minutes, I say. I only need to grab a couple of items, one of them being a low sugar peanut butter. I find the peanut butter grab the jar, move my glasses…

Tired, exhausted feeling like you are doing two jobs? Well you might just inadvertently be doing that. There seems to be an endemic of employees at the moment, who are really good at doing not only…

Now I’m not talking waking up one morning and discovering I’ve gone from black to white. Now that would be really really traumatic. No, I’ve actually been going grey for years, and I mean years, my beautiful dark…

I’m sick and tired of employees that are sick and tired, leaders you need to step up. I often refer to the term ‘human leadership’ in the workshops I run. As the title suggests it should be obvious leaders are…
