I am a partner and the firm’s Gender Convenor. I am passionate about supporting all our people to develop and have fulfilling careers in whatever form works for them and the business. In particular, I am working with and supporting our female, non-binary and non-gender conforming talent, who we know face very different challenges when it comes to career progression, and I want to ensure they have an equal opportunity to develop. I am also working with our gender secondees to deliver the action plan that underpins the firm’s Gender Strategy for 2025.
I have coached for a number of years and supported women, in particular, with specific performance issues, transition coaching and career development drawing on my lived experience of working in professional services for over 35 years. I believe that giving people the time and space to think is fundamental to coaching. In this busy world we live in taking time for yourself to reflect and think is essential to enable you to change your thinking and motivate you to take action and make the changes you want.
I am a trustee of The Grant Thornton Foundation.
