"Leadership is a way of thinking, a way of acting and most importantly a way of communicating"

Simon Sinek

Great leadership impacts the organisation and its people

What kind of leaders do you want to see in your organisation?

What do you need to change or learn to see effectiveness in leadership?

In a time when we need leaders to have impact, be visible and relevant – there’s a lot to be said about taking development seriously to learning how to apply what we know.

Real impact goes beyond technical expertise; it’s about self-management and developing human skills like connection, communication and emotional intelligence. It’s time we see these skills in action rather than simply knowing theories.

I’m offering a fresh approach, not just a training course, but an interaction and experience that can be applied in your leadership every day.

Communication Excellence

Communication skills development for leaders.

You might not have formally learned much about communicating and connecting but I’m here to help. We look at specific areas of communications that you need to master to be an engaging impactful leader and provide practical learning you can use.

This is aligned to EDGE, a framework highlighting the attributes needed to be Engaging, Dynamic, Genuine, and Effective as a leader.

Some of the areas covered are:

The Art of Influence
Challenging Conversations
Leading and Communicating Change
Presentation and Meeting Confidence
Strategic Conversations and Stakeholder Engagement
Communicating with a Multi-generational Workforce.

Development Programme Design and Delivery

Creating leadership development to achieve engaging, connected and impactful leaders for organisational success.

Combining coaching and learning is the most effective way to develop and engage your leaders for real growth and change.

Here’s where we include assessment tools to identify gaps as we collaborate with you to design and deliver interactive, engaging sessions to support your specific leadership needs.

Assess and Review

Sometimes we need to review what’s happening, discover our strengths and who we are to get the confidence and know what and how to improve. Taking an assessment and having a conversation on what it means and how to apply improvements can give you the boost you need and take you to the next level.

We cover the following leadership assessments:

Values: provide us with motivation and our sense of meaning. Helping us to navigate our work and lives to create balance, set priorities and boundaries.
DISC: maximise your communication, producitivity and interactions by understanding yourself and others.
Smarter Collaboration®: measure your collaborative attributes – your natural ways of working with others.

Why clients choose to work with me

“

Trudy has amazing listening and empowering skills. Didn’t feel like coaching, more of a natural conversation, which I really liked. I’m now more aware of the strategies I need to implement in my daily, weekly and even annual working and family life pattern to keep my energy positive, my outputs consistent and manage the increasing demands on my time and expertise.”

Katie Marlow

Company Director

“

When you ask someone to help reposition your business in written messages across a variety of materials, it's hard not to be precious about it. Trudy took on the job in a calm, understanding, practical and effective way. She listened, picked up the concepts, delivered the results I wanted alongside a framework that I could use to handle the evolution of those messages going forwards."

Lindsay Uittenbogaard

Company Director

“

Trudy helped me to recognise and to challenge the limiting belief patterns that were holding me back. She empowered me with tools to start to unlock a new future, and to begin moving forwards again. She is a skilled coach and a great listener and helped me to rebuild my confidence."
