Nau mai haere mai ki Athrú Leadership Coaching
I combine over 20 years experience in executive leadership and governance with a range of contemporary coaching and mentoring approaches, giving leaders the confidence that I have a very real understanding of the day-to-day challenges and complexities that they face, and the skills to support them to succeed in reaching their goals.
Over the years I have been fortunate to work with around 100 leaders including company executives, clinical directors, programme leaders and general managers from a range of industries e.g., healthcare, community Māori, education, not for profit, ICT and more. These leaders hail from a range of places including Aotearoa New Zealand, the UK and Australia and have diverse identities and rich experiences to draw upon.
Through Athrú I have a special interest in working with leaders and emerging leaders from NFPs and SMEs to assist them to grow their leadership capability in support of their purpose/kaupapa.
