Coaching from a Leader Who Knows Government
Public Sector Leadership is Unique. Your Coach Should Be, Too.
With 25+ years of leadership experience in government and professional accreditation as a Certified Organisational Coach (Levels 1 & 2, PIECL), I understand the real challenges government leaders face—because I’ve lived them.
I’ve led teams of up to 250 people, overseen multi-million-dollar projects, managed high-stakes policy implementation, and navigated major organizational change in public service. I’ve worked in fast-moving, high-pressure environments like disaster response and crisis leadership, balancing the needs of communities, government bodies, and stakeholders.
Now, I use my real-world leadership experience and accredited coaching expertise to help public sector professionals and government leaders navigate complexity, lead with confidence, and drive meaningful impact.

Why I Coach: A Mission to Empower Public Sector Leaders
In my final years as a government leader, I saw firsthand how complex and demanding leadership had become. The pressures were greater, the expectations higher, and the support systems often lacking. While I still loved the work, I knew I wanted to make a wider impact—not just within my own team, but across the entire government sector.
Coaching gave me that opportunity. The ability to help leaders grow, navigate challenges, and thrive—leaders who, in turn, would strengthen the teams beneath them and drive meaningful change.
But coaching isn’t just a career shift for me; it’s deeply tied to my purpose—to be the difference for others. After hundreds of hours of coaching, that purpose burns as strong as ever. With every new engagement, I look forward to making that difference in the lives and careers of public sector leaders.
Why I Coach Public Sector Leaders
Government leadership is different—and those who lead in this space deserve specialised coaching that understands the realities of public service. Unlike corporate leadership, public sector leaders operate under intense public scrutiny, navigate complex stakeholder and community relationships, and must drive meaningful change within bureaucratic structures.
With a deep understanding of public sector challenges and an accredited background in coaching, I provide leadership development that is:
Strategic & Practical – No generic advice—just real, actionable solutions.
Tailored for Public Sector Leaders – Built specifically for professionals who operate in government, policy, and community services.
Results-Driven – Whether you're navigating career growth, policy change, or leadership challenges, I help you drive impact.
If you’re ready to build your confidence, lead with clarity, and navigate the complexities of government leadership—let’s work together.
