Keynotes

Keynotes and workshops on parental transitions, talent and careers in high-performance organisations. Available in person or online. Grounded in research, engaging in the room, practical in the real world.

Drawing on my doctoral research, specialist coaching practice and first-hand experience of demanding professional environments, I bring together rigorous evidence with the commercial and practical realities organisations are navigating every day.

My aim is not simply to present research. It is to make it useful – challenging established thinking, creating better conversations and giving leaders practical ideas they can take back into their organisations.

I speak at leadership offsites, women’s and parents’ networks, client dinners, conferences and senior leadership conversations, tailoring the content and format to the audience.

Topics include:

• Retaining and progressing talented parents
• What really happens to careers through parental leave and return
• The role of managers in successful parental transitions
• Building ambitious, sustainable careers in high-performance environments
• Turning good policy into better everyday practice

Sessions can range from keynote-style talks to smaller, discussion-led leadership conversations, combining research, real-world insight and practical application.
