SPORT & ORGANISATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
My Story
I grew up playing many team sports, and became fascinated by how teams functioned (or not!) and the important role leaders and coaches played in shaping a culture and influencing a team's success.
I focused my undergraduate research on team dynamics in rugby union, and Masters research studying culture in professional rugby union, using an ethnographic approach, which honed my skills in behavioural science.
​
I have worked with professional and amateur coaches and athletes helping them to improve their performance. I then applied my knowledge and experience from Sport Psychology to businesses - helping corporate executives, leaders and teams to improve their culture and to achieve organisational goals and success.
​
I'm an experienced facilitator and coach, specialising in leadership development and culture change. I've also worked as a tutor and educator in Sport Psychology and Team Management, and I have published several academic journal articles.
​
In addition to workshop facilitation, I'm highly experienced in delivering keynotes, webinars and interviews.
