LEADERSHIP FACILITATION

I’ve been designing and delivering leadership training since 2012. Federal Agents, Police Officers, Senior Public Servants and brand new Team Leaders. Before I stood at the front of the room, I spent more than two decades inside the organisations my participants come from.

WHAT I RUN

No two teams need the same program, so I don’t run one. Here’s the shape of what I deliver, and every one of them gets rebuilt around your people before I walk in the door.

Leadership development programs

Multi-session programs for new and emerging leaders. Practical, evidence-based, and built around the real situations your people face, not generic case studies. I design the program, deliver it, and adjust it as the cohort grows.

Team development with HBDI

The Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument: a questionnaire, a debrief, and a workshop that shows a team how each person prefers to think. It's the fastest way I know to get a team talking honestly about how they work together.

Wellbeing and mindful leadership

This is the work I'm most passionate about. I host a podcast on mindful leadership and wrote The Mindful Leadership Blueprint. Workshops that help leaders look after themselves and their people, because burnt-out leaders build burnt-out teams.

Custom workshops

Leadership, mindfulness, emotional intelligence, giving feedback, having the hard conversations, leading through change. If your team has a specific problem, I'll build a session for it. Half a day or a full program, your call.

WHY WORK WITH ME

Plenty of facilitators can run a good session. What I bring is the twenty-plus years I spent living inside the organisations I now train.

I've led in the rooms you work in

Ten years in the Royal Australian Air Force and thirteen in the Australian Federal Police. When I talk about leading under pressure, it's not theory. Your participants pick that up in the first ten minutes.

Designed, not just delivered

I'm a learning designer first and a facilitator second. Every workshop is built with the same rigour I put into a training package: clear outcomes, evidence-based content, and activities that earn their place.

The learning doesn't stop when the room empties

I build digital learning too, so your program can come with pre-work, follow-up modules and resources that keep it alive after the workshop ends.

Delivered through Openloop Solutions

I work as part of Openloop, a Canberra consultancy that's been supporting government agencies for years. You get me in the room and a company behind the engagement.

HOW IT WORKS

Getting started is deliberately simple. Three steps, no lock-in, and you’ll know exactly what you’re getting before you commit to anything.

Step 1

Tell me what you need

Fill in the contact form with a rough idea of your team, the challenge, and any timing. Don't worry about getting it perfect.

Step 2

We talk it through

We'll jump on a call and dig into what's actually going on. I'll tell you honestly whether a workshop will fix it or whether you need something else.

Step 3

You get your proposal

A clear outline of the program, the sessions, and the cost. No surprises, no padding, and no obligation to go ahead.

WHO I'VE WORKED WITH

I’ve delivered leadership training across the Australian Public Service and law enforcement: Federal Agents, Police Officers, Senior Public Servants and brand new Team Leaders. The organisations change but the challenge doesn’t. People get promoted for being good at the job, then have to learn how to lead the people doing it.
