Hi!
Thanks for looking at my profile
I'm looking to work with people who want to move forward and make a difference to their professional lives. I don't mind if you don't know what you want to do or how to do it.. we can work on that. We can explore what your future might look like together.
I don't 'help' - The answers have to be yours, I will work with you to consider the options.
We explore the present & the future. We can be creative & consider ways of addressing risks & opportunities. I am a safety net and a cheer leader.
I am passionate about leadership skills, how we all have the capability and capacity to be act as leaders, formally or informally and how that impacts on our relationships at work.
I've had a portfolio career - a journey of different routes & milestones. I've learnt that careers and lives don't go in straight lines and a blip is actually an opportunity to look up and make changes.
I've lived and worked in Europe and in the USA, Morocco, Lebanon, Oman.
I've run my own company and worked for others across the public, private and voluntary sector. I've also worked for a contruction/consultancy firm in the UK. i also terach in University Business Schools.
I mentor those who have started on their careers and are uncertain about next steps, Some people have hit a brick wall and want to know how to smash through it... We work on the best tools to do this!
I support people working on their start-ups, scale-ups and those who are thinking of setting up a business.
Mostly I work with women but not exclusively ...
I've recently run workshops on Imposter Syndrome and ways to manage how you feel about it.
Get in touch and let's see if we get on.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Ruth
