About Carolyn

The C behind the solution

With over 30 years experience as a coach and mentor in senior leadership roles, you’re in a safe pair of hands.

My Story

I believe that no one deserves to live a life unfulfilled, with things they wish they could achieve but they don’t know how.

I began coaching because I wanted people to realise how they could achieve these things and that they had the answers inside them all along.

With a career that spans over 3 decades in Senior leadership and HR roles, I am well experienced in developing high performing individuals and making better leaders.

Working in industries such as finance, retail and social care, I have successfully led and coached teams in organisations of up to 65,000 employees and established various systems and practices within organisations that enable employees to thrive.

Why Work With Me?

There is no quick fix solution here but my approach to coaching enables you to stay motivated and focused on your path.

Talking about your issues is a natural remedy for the stress and anxiety that you could be feeling, but together with step-by-step action plans and regular catch ups, you will be able to see your achievements and milestones every step of the way and make long lasting, visible change.

Qualifications & Awards
