I spent thirty years in leadership in the non-profit sector, including time as a CEO. I know what it's like to care deeply about the work and still feel like something isn't quite right. If you're a purpose-driven professional who's feeling stuck, I'm here to help you work out why, and what to do about it.
Every Friday I write about leadership, purpose, and what it actually takes to thrive at work. No templates, no frameworks. Just honest thinking from someone who's been in the room.
The newsletter
I write a regular newsletter about my adventures navigating issues of leadership, equality, equity, social justice, and diversity: the work I’m doing, the campaigns I’m involved in, people I’ve met, what I’m listening to and the books I’m reading. Even the music I’m listening
What gets measured, what gets lost
I've been thinking about competency frameworks this week as part of a charity project I'm doing, looking at leadership at practitioner, team leader, and service manager levels. (I'm a laugh at parties, honestly 😀) It's detailed, careful work, but the most interesting question
Already doing the work
When does experience count as a qualification? On waiting for permission to call yourself what you already are.
The ground isn't neutral
Every week I sit down to write this newsletter and I try really hard to put something useful and uplifting out into the world. This week I'm finding that harder than usual. I can't create world peace. I can't stop what's happening
