Awarded the BQF Excellenteer accolade by HRH the Princess Royal at Wembley Stadium in March 2025, I am passionate about building high-performing cultures where people leadership, continuous improvement, and operational excellence thrive. With over 25 years of experience, I’ve led large-scale transformations for global industry leaders that include Amazon and Royal Mail, proving that when people thrive, performance follows.
As a globally recognised voice in Leadership and Continuous Improvement, I hold elite qualifications including Lean Mastery (MBB), Lean Six Sigma Post-HBO Black Belt (Post-Bachelor's level - ISO 18404), and Lean Leader (ISO 18404). My leadership philosophy combines CI principles with core role-model behaviours, driving lasting high performance and cultural change.
I am the author of 'The Emergence of an Unexpected Leader' and 'Building the Bridge to Inspirational Leadership', and host of the multi-award-nominated Ever-So-Lean Podcast, where I break down complex CI concepts into actionable insights. Through these platforms, I communicate with clarity, inspire, and create impactful change.
With over 25 years of experience, I blend deep expertise in continuous improvement with a people-first approach. My frameworks, such as The Bridge to Inspirational Leadership, help leaders engage, inspire, and elevate teams, driving sustainable results. Whether transforming large-scale operations or coaching individuals, I create environments where people thrive and performance follows.
A finalist in 'Excellence in People Development & Engagement' at the Excellence Awards 2025, I have developed the Ever-So-Lean Learning Series and Rising Stars™ Programmes. These industry-accredited initiatives provide training for emerging leaders and change professionals, instilling a growth mindset across organisations, ensuring long-term success.
My passion is unlocking potential—both in individuals and organisations—removing barriers to success, and creating environments where people feel valued, respected, and empowered to drive meaningful change.
Whether leading transformative initiatives, coaching executives, or shaping the next generation of leaders, I bring clarity, energy, and authenticity to every engagement. If you're ready to unlock your people’s full potential and build a culture of excellence, let’s talk.
