"Broad experiences & different viewpoints obviously lead to better business strategies, decisions and execution of plans. The performance results are evident"
Women on Board October 2015

​Smart Leaders AVOID GROUP THINK - obvious really. Diversity, as long as we always appoint the best person for the role, will encourage Boardroom conversations with a variety of ideas, see things that others don't see, ensure first hand understanding of consumers, identify risk and propose the widest choice of mitigations.

I have over 10 years experience on Executive Boards, both leading and participating with different Leadership teams, I speak from a position of knowledge.
​
The 5 year Women on Board Government Review by Lord Davies, KPMG and Cranfield University confirms this with much evidence.

With increasing pressure from Government and Shareholders to demonstrate a balanced Executive Board and senior management, companies have never been more under the spotlight to act.
However, I am against quotas or positive discrimination. These undermine the leadership, the business performance and the women who are already effectively working at Director level.

The solution?
I offer a proven successful in house programme of workshops for companies that prepare High Performing High Potential women to become Boardroom Ready and Boardroom Happy, In parallel, I advise the current Board on how to address their unconscious concerns in making such changes to their Boardroom composition.
The programme covers

• Influencing people to achieve results
• Creating impact
• Thriving with work/life balance
• Establishing mental toughness when facing inevitable setbacks

There has never been such a quick and effective way to unlock people potential, motivate employees, meet shareholder demands and see improved business outcomes in a matter of months.

The business result?
Companies in addition to better business performance, access their full talent pool for succession planning, see wider idea creation, better plan execution, smarter risk management and create a more loyal workforce, losing less of their high potential people.

Call me for details of how it works
Whether you are the visionary CEO, HR Director or the driver of change in your organisation, contact me to find out more about the programme.
With the Davies report now naming and shaming those in the FTSE 250 who are not achieving 25%-30% women on Boards, I expect my year to soon be fully booked, so act now.
