Embrace Complexity
Leadership coaching and development – building your capacity to deal with complex challenges
Humans are Amazing and Complex
Leading yourself and others is deeply rewarding and can also present challenges, particularly for those working in roles that focus on societal or cultural change.
Your work is inspirational and also daunting.
You are curious, courageous, and passionate about how you can learn and grow as a leader.
You know that to bring out the best in your people and make a real impact, you first must be the best version of yourself.
Whether it’s a place, an organisation, a team or much closer to home, the environments we live in are complex, changeable, messy and uncertain. This means we all need to invest in ourselves and in those whom we work with to grow and fulfil our potential.
I work with you so you can make your unique and consequential contribution to those around you. Enabling your thinking and actions to be the best version of yourself and enable those around you to contribute fully with the best version of themselves.
“My coaching sessions with Holly provided a space in which I could share my observations, use frameworks to explore options, then settle on how through my position, my interactions made sense and made progress. A perfect match!”

How we work together
Awareness building: receptiveness to what happening now
Immediate actions: response options to work into the situation
Underlying dynamics: understanding how this came to be
This combination increases your depth of understanding, builds capability to respond differently, and helps identify patterns growing the capacity longer term.

I don’t have a specific school of thought that guides my coaching: my approach adapts to what matches your needs.
My main recommendation is to work with real life challenges with space for reflection and learning as you go.
We share observations, use frameworks to explore options, look at how interactions make sense and grow change.
So that you’re working on things that matter practically while building capability and developing all of you.
Helping You Tackle Wicked Issues
From how to create better support around those in their 80s+ to working with children and young people who have had very difficult starts in life. From building resilient communities to creating adaptive teams who are effective and receptive.
Working together, we’ll focus on your values as a leader. You’ll get practical tools and space to reflect on your experiences, deepen your understanding and build capacity to deal with complex challenges. Most importantly, I’ll support you to become the best version of yourself.
If you want and are ready to learn, tackle complex challenges, relate better and be courageous…
