Consulting. Demystified.
69 Tools Every Transformation Leader Needs
The book I wish had existed when I started out.
Whether you're new to consulting, a business leader trying to get the most from the consultants you hire, or an experienced practitioner wondering if there's a better way — this book is for you.
69 tools. 69 chapters.
Four audiences in every one.
Warm, jargon-free, and honest about what actually works. From compelling reasons for change to behavioural science, stakeholder management to vulnerability — everything you need to lead transformation with confidence.
Beyond the Toolkit
A Woman's Journey Through Consulting — and Back to Herself
The story underneath the career.
For fifteen years I performed a version of myself I thought the professional world required. Polished. Serious. Corporate. It worked, by every measurable standard. But it was costing me everything.
This is the honest account of what it actually takes to build a life in consulting as a woman — the bias, the burnout, the moments that broke me and the ones that built me back. It's also a love letter to the version of yourself you left at home on Sunday night. It's time to bring her back.
Coaching, Mentoring & Community
-
I have been coaching people throughout my career as a Management Consultant and Senior Transformation Leader.
Helping people think more clearly, work more effectively, and show up as the best version of themselves has always been part of how I work.
I am now a Paseda360 Advanced Practitioner in Transformational Coaching, and I am currently looking for a small number of volunteers to experience the Paseda360 Stop Being Stuck protocol as part of my certification portfolio.
This is a structured, evidence-based approach that creates real, lasting change — not surface-level advice, but work that goes to the root of what's holding you back.
This will be offered free of charge for a limited time while I build my portfolio. Places are genuinely limited.
If you're curious, get in touch — I'd love to hear from you.
-
I am passionate about helping others succeed — and I mean that in the most practical sense. Not cheerleading from the sidelines, but honest, committed, roll-your-sleeves-up support.
At any given time, I work with a small number of individuals on a mentoring basis. I am selective about this because I take it seriously. If I'm your mentor, you have my full attention and genuine investment in where you're going.
If you'd like to explore whether we'd be a good fit, get in touch and let's have a conversation.
-
I am based in rural Northern Ireland and regularly travel across the UK and Ireland for work, speaking engagements, and events.
I am always open to supporting relevant community and networking initiatives — whether that's attending, speaking, facilitating, or simply being in the room and making connections happen.
If you're running something you think I'd be a good fit for, I'd love to hear about it. Reach out, and let's explore it.
Speaking
I speak at conferences, roundtables, corporate events, and leadership programmes across the UK and Ireland — and increasingly further afield.
My speaking draws on fifteen years at the sharp end of consulting and transformation, combined with lived experience of what it actually costs to build a career in this industry and what it takes to thrive in it.
I don't do generic keynotes. I bring specific stories, real frameworks, and the kind of honest perspective that tends to start conversations long after the event ends.
Topics I speak on include:
Customer and colleague experience — and why they're the same conversation
AI and Technology in Financial Services and beyond
Negotiation, influence, and the art of being taken seriously
Women in leadership and the hidden cost of performing a professional identity
Vulnerability, authenticity, and why the real version of you is more effective
Consulting demystified — what great transformation leadership actually looks like
I have spoken at industry conferences, senior client roundtables, and leadership forums.
I'm based in Northern Ireland and travel regularly across the UK and Ireland. I'm available for keynotes, panel discussions, fireside conversations, and workshop facilitation.
If you'd like me to speak at your event, I'd love to hear from you.
Get in touch to discuss availability, topics, and fit.
