I have over twenty-five years working in a wide range of organisations with first-hand experience working directly for corporates in operational, team lead and director roles. I understand businesses, particularly the challenges of middle management.
I believe in continuous learning, after the B.Comm UCD I qualified as an accountant, I am an accredited coach and a mindfulness facilitator. Recently I completed ECR certification and engage in continuous supervision work.
I worked with Ibec providing advice on the setup up of the KeepWell Mark, and now as a KeepWell Mark consultant, I advise organisations on how to build impactful and sustainable corporate wellbeing strategies. The focus is developing and
implementing strategies that add value to businesses by creating cultures where diverse intergenerational groups can connect to create engaging work environments where staff thrive.
Coaching
My coaching work focuses on providing a safe space for individuals to explore and identify actions to unlock their potential. Combining mindfulness knowledge with my understanding of the complex business environment, I provide a person-centred approach for individuals to tap into their potential. The space provides an opportunity for clients to become aware of unhelpful habits and build competencies that support, and enable them to excel in the complex working environment.
Passion
In tandem with my corporate career, I have been practicing contemplative practices for decades. I passionately believe mindfulness is a force for positive change in the workplace when implemented in a safe and sustainable way, in cultures that are compatible with mindfulness principles.
I also passionately believe in lifelong learning and continue to deepen both my contemplative and professional skills through continuous training and supervision work.
I am a member of the mindfulness Teachers Association (MTAI) and adhere to the Mindfulness Teachers Best Practice Guidelines. I am currently chairperson of the MTAI Workplace Mindfulness Group.
