Christina Mackay-Nowell helps organisations tackle the human side of business performance in the age of AI — how they support the managers who hold their teams together, how their people negotiate, and how they lead through disruption and reinvention. A strategic advisor with almost 20 years across investment, entrepreneurship and management consulting, she is Managing Director of Venture6, advising private investors and entrepreneurs entering Western European markets. She combines a legal and MBA background with Fortune 500 client experience at EY, where she spent seven and a half years, including as Project Manager for the World Entrepreneur Of The Year programme, creating content delivered to 2,000 CEOs, and supporting the lead Partner chairing debates on board diversity and gender equality at a Women in Leadership Summit for 100 CEOs. She brings research to life with warmth, clarity and the kind of directness that changes what people do, grounded in evidence from Gallup, McKinsey, Google and Harvard. Her keynotes and workshops — including "The Accidental Crisis," on the leadership gap costing organisations $10 trillion a year, and "Mastering Negotiation," a practical deep-dive into the Harvard, Voss and Cialdini frameworks — are aimed at CEO and board-level offsites, leadership conferences, HR and L&D summits, and all-company events.
