Developing Leaders. Transforming Teams. Driving Results
When your leaders thrive, your business thrives.
When leaders are under pressure, how they lead really matters.
You might be growing fast, going through change, or asking your leaders to step up in new ways. Maybe decisions are taking longer, teams feel out of sync, or the same issues keep coming up in meetings.
This is the work I do.
I work with senior leaders, leadership teams and organisations to help leaders lead more clearly, work better together and take ownership for results. The focus is always on what will make the biggest difference for your people, your teams and your business.
If you want a partner who understands the pressure leaders are under and helps you move things forward, let’s talk.

Solutions for you, your leaders and your organisation
Strengthen collaboration, trust and team impact
Strong leadership teams make good decisions, trust each other and know how to work through challenges together.
But sometimes teams get stuck. Conversations are avoided, priorities aren’t clear, or leaders are so busy reacting that there’s no time to step back and lead properly.
I work with leadership teams to look at what’s really going on beneath the surface so leaders can work together more effectively.
Using the Management Drive framework, we explore what drives each leader, how people show up under pressure and how the team can work more effectively together.
Together, we focus on:
Clearer roles and expectations
Better conversations and stronger trust
Shared ownership and accountability
Faster, more confident decision making
Stronger alignment around what matters most
This work leads to tangible change in how teams operate.
When teams work well together, everything moves faster and with less friction.
If you want to strengthen how your leadership team works and leads, let’s talk.
What the team work looks like
We start with insight.
Leaders complete a short questionnaire that shows what drives them at work and how their behaviour can change when things feel pressured.
This helps us understand both the individuals and the team as a whole.
From there, we bring the team together for a focused session where we talk openly about what is helping and what is getting in the way.
You then agree what needs to change and what leaders will do differently, both as a team and in how they lead their people.
The aim is always practical change, not just good conversations.
Developing leaders who can handle what’s coming
As organisations grow and evolve, leaders are often asked to step up in new ways.
They may be leading bigger teams, having tougher conversations, leading through change or carrying more responsibility for results and decisions.
I work with organisations to create leadership development that reflects what your leaders are actually dealing with day to day, not generic off-the-shelf programmes.
This could support:
- Senior leaders
- Managers stepping into bigger roles
- Or future leaders preparing for more responsibility
We focus on helping leaders:
- Communicate more effectively
- Lead with confidence and authority
- Make stronger decisions
- Influence and lead others
- Handle difficult situations better
- Lead teams through change
Everything is designed around your organisation, your people and the results you need to achieve.
What leadership development with me looks like
We start by getting clear on where leaders are struggling, what’s getting in the way and what needs to happen differently.
From there, I design sessions and programmes that reflect the realities of leadership inside your organisation.
Leaders are encouraged to think honestly about how they are leading, what is working, what isn’t and what needs to change.
This is not about adding more to already full plates.
It is about helping leaders work and lead more effectively in the role they are already in.
1:1 Executive Coaching
Senior leaders carry a huge amount of responsibility and do not always have the space to think clearly about what’s really going on.
But behind the scenes, many are overthinking decisions or conversations, doubting themselves, avoiding difficult conversations or feeling frustrated because they know they’ve got more to give but can’t see what’s getting in their way.
My work creates the space for leaders to talk honestly about what’s really going on. We uncover the blind spots and we get to the root of what’s playing out so they can get back to leading at their best.
Some leaders come to me when they’re stepping into bigger roles, leading through change or processing difficult feedback. Others know something needs to change in how they’re leading, communicating or showing up at work.
This is honest, focused support that helps leaders to stop holding themselves back and lead at the level they know they’re capable of.

Josie has worked with our senior leaders on a management development programme, including coaching key individuals. Her inclusive and engaging style has helped us develop as a team, to reflect on our behaviours and to think differently.
Our ongoing work with Josie has enabled us to identify and accelerate the management and leadership talent within our team during a period of continued growth and organisational development.
It’s been refreshing to benefit from the wide range of industry experience and insights Josie offers us in a manner which is relatable, immediately useful and tailored to our own day to day challenges.
We’re very much looking forward to continuing and expanding on our partnership with Josie!
We had two newly promoted sales managers that we felt would benefit from external training. Josie was great. She ran multiple sessions with them over a four month period, both individually and as a pair. Her enthusiasm, perceptiveness, experience, and professionalism really cut through with them and they have rapidly progressed in their new role. Their improvement has been noted by the directors and the rest of the senior management team and we’re really pleased with the impact Josie has had.
