Workshops and learning sessions
High-impact workshops and learning sessions for leadership challenges
Leaders are under more pressure than ever to perform, retain talent, lead through change, and deliver results sustainably. Sessions are designed specifically for professional services firms, where time is limited and expectations are high.
I run 60 - 90 minute practical workshops and learning sessions to address your firm's challenges. The purpose is to provide practical insights leaders can apply immediately.
I collaborate with you to understand your context, challenges, and audience so that each session delivers targeted impact. Whether you are supporting new joiners, equipping emerging leaders, or re-energising your senior team, sessions are shaped to meet your goals.
Popular challenges include:
Difficult conversations
Equip participants with the mindset and tools to approach high-stakes, emotionally charged, or uncomfortable discussions with clarity and confidence. Learn how to prepare effectively, manage emotional triggers, and communicate with empathy while still holding boundaries and addressing issues directly. Attendees will gain practical frameworks they can use immediately to navigate conflict, give constructive feedback, and maintain strong working relationships even when the conversation is tough.
Psychological safety
Explore what it means to create a team environment where people feel safe to speak up, innovate, and be themselves without fear of judgment or punishment. The session unpacks the role of leaders in fostering this culture, including how to respond to mistakes and invite input. Participants will leave with practical ways to build trust, encourage open dialogue, and create a space where innovation, engagement, and performance can thrive.
Retaining talent through purpose-driven leadership
Understand what truly drives people to stay, grow, and thrive within your firm. Explore the key factors behind disengagement and attrition, such as lack of development, unclear career paths, or poor leadership behaviours. Leaders will learn actionable strategies to create meaningful connections, provide growth opportunities, and build a culture of recognition and trust that keeps top performers engaged and committed for the long term.
From expert to leader
A session on making the mental and practical shift from individual contributor to team leader. Exploring the mindset and skills required to move from technical expert to strategic leader. Participants will learn what to stop, start, and shift as they confidently step into new levels of responsibility.
Executive presence
Help participants understand what executive presence really means and why it matters for influence, leadership, and career progression. The session breaks down key components of executive presence, including gravitas, communication, and appearance, with practical tips on how to project confidence, credibility, and composure in high-stakes situations. Attendees will walk away with actionable steps to enhance how they show up, and tools to build trust and authority in every interaction.
Resilience
Help participants build the mental and emotional agility to navigate pressure, setbacks, and uncertainty in a sustainable way. Explore the science of resilience, common burnout triggers in professional environments, and how to recognise early warning signs. Attendees will learn practical tools to regulate stress, reframe challenges, and bounce back faster to enable them to maintain performance, protect wellbeing, and lead with steadiness even in demanding times.
Corporate basics
A session for new joiners to your firm that includes practical strategies for navigating the corporate environment, understanding unspoken expectations, and building strong relationships early on. The session also supports mindset shifts needed to thrive in a new environment, helping new joiners feel empowered, engaged, and ready to make a meaningful impact from the start.
