Pip is one of our most experienced practitioners. She started her career working in television as a political correspondent for TV AM reporting on domestic and international political events such as the G7 summits and general elections. She interviewed renowned world leaders including Margaret Thatcher, Tony Blair and, a personal highlight, Nelson Mandela.

Inspired by these insights into global leaders and with a fascination for those that change the lives of people, Pip made the transition to the corporate world as HRD and a founding board member to launch the first successful home delivery supermarket in the UK and sponsored by Sainsburys.

Pip operates at Board level, coaching and facilitating senior leaders across a range of sectors, with a particular focus on FMCG, pharmaceutical and professional services.

Working with teams and individual leaders, Pip’s specific coaching expertise includes helping clients make significant developmental shifts to new roles, define and implement strategy, solve challenges, overcome the sense of overwhelm, develop greater resilience, build new levels of confidence, discover personal purpose, resolve interpersonal challenges and deal with conflict.

“The greatest companies regard their people and those with talent as their most valuable assets.

“I believe that with the right development and support every leader can achieve their full potential. My strong ambition is to bring energy, insight and challenge to make this probable and not just possible.”
