Where C-Suits Authority Meets Conscious Leadership

For Organisations Ready to Master the Space Where 70% of Transformations Fail

I bring a rare combination to the speaking stage: the strategic credibility of a former FTSE 100 VP/Director and the conscious leadership wisdom needed for sustainable transformation at scale.

Having led transformation for 30M+ customers across continents - from Vice President Digital Experience at du in Dubai building the #1 app in UAE to Digital Product Director at BT and EE in London managing £20M+ transformation budgets - I don't just talk about change. I've lived it at the highest levels when failure wasn't an option.

I speak on the leadership behaviours that drive real transformation - from navigating the messy middle to building trust-driven, high-performing teams.

My talks are practical, human-centred and designed to resonate with leaders navigating complexity in digital, product and technology-driven organisations. They're strategic masterclasses for senior leaders who need transformation expertise that actually works.

Core Expertise Areas:

Digital transformation leadership and execution
Conscious leadership for organisational change
C-Suite team alignment and culture transformation
Cross-cultural leadership and global transformation
Female leadership advantage in male-dominated industries
Pattern recognition for transformation success

All presentations can be customised for specific industries, transformation challenges or strategic themes relevant to your audience and organisational objectives.

Speaking Style & Approach

Strategic Yet Human-Centred

I combine boardroom-level strategic insight with deep understanding of human dynamics - speaking to both the analytical and intuitive intelligence of senior leaders.

Practical Over Theoretical

Every keynote includes real-world examples, specific frameworks and actionable insights that leaders can implement immediately rather than inspirational concepts without application.

Interactive & Engaging

While maintaining executive gravitas, I create space for strategic thinking, peer discussion and practical application rather than passive consumption of content.

Results-Focused

Each presentation is designed to shift how leaders think about and approach transformation challenges - providing both perspective change and practical tools for better outcomes.
