With new eyes and deeper connections you will find yourself
When you work with me you will also have the satisfaction of knowing that you will be supporting another change-maker, a social entrepreneur in India, to become more visible and make a difference in the world.
I started my working life as an honours graduate in ecology and resource management in Scotland. Since coming to New Zealand over 30 years ago I have held positions in resource planning and management, horticulture, education, management, counselling, career consulting and coaching.
I am skilled in the interpretation of Myers Briggs Personality (MBTI) assessments and Retirement Options (RSP) assessments and as a master NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) practitioner utilise many NLP tools.
Today I am one of New Zealand's most experienced coaches. In 2002 I was the first coach in New Zealand to receive certification from the International Coach Federation (ICF) as a Professional Certified Coach (PCC).
In 2010 I self published my first book, Get Ready to Retire, Seven steps you need to take before you leave full-timework.
To my work with others I bring a rich tapestry of skills and expertise, including those of being a partner, mother of two adult sons and grandmother.
