Great Leadership Starts With Emotional Intelligence.

Today’s leaders aren’t just about hitting targets. They inspire trust, build genuine relationships, and navigate challenges with confidence and calm. This is where emotional intelligence and resilience come in.

I'm Lizzie and I help leaders strengthen these skills, so they can make clear decisions, build authentic connections, and lead teams that thrive.

What’s holding your Leadership back?

The Best Leaders Aren't Just Technically Skilled.

They're also emotionally strong: empathetic, self aware, and resilient. 
These qualities unlock powerful communication, seamless collaboration, and the confidence to lead through change.

What happens when you lead this way?

  • Stronger, more engaged teams
  • Smarter, faster decision making
  • A culture of trust and success

When your leaders combine technical expertise with emotional intelligence, the impact ripples throughout the organisation, driving higher engagement, innovation, and performance.

Why Emotional Intelligence and Resilience Are Key to Leadership Success

Leadership is more than strategy. It's about how you show up for your people, how you connect, and how you lead with confidence through highs and lows. Emotional intelligence and resilience form the foundations of exceptional leadership, unlocking success not just for individual leaders but for the entire organisation.

I've worked with leaders across industries who excel technically, but feel stuck when it comes to connecting with their teams or handling challenges under pressure. Strategy alone isn't enough without compassion and human connection. 

Emotional intelligence enables leaders to build trust, engage teams, and make decisions rooted in both logic and empathy.

The Benefits of Emotional Intelligence in Leadership

When you invest in emotional intelligence, you give your leaders the tools to lead with intention, empathy, and calm under pressure. It’s not just a ‘nice to have’, it’s the foundation for sustainable, people first success.

Self-awareness

Leaders who understand how their emotions influence their decisions are better equipped to lead with clarity and purpose.

Empathy

Leaders who connect on a human level build stronger, more engaged relationships, leading to higher motivation and collaboration.

Why Work With Me?

With over a decade of experience in the fast paced tech and startup sectors across the UK and Middle East, I’ve seen that real leadership isn’t just about strategy and technical capabilities, it’s about connection and trust.

I specialise in bridging the gap between logic and emotion, combining neuroscience backed tools, practical strategies, and a people first approach to create meaningful, measurable change.

I've partnered with globally recognised companies like PwC, KraftHeinz, Korn Ferry and Natwest, and many others to help their leaders unlock their potential and build cultures where teams truly thrive.

When leaders connect with empathy, trust, and confidence, they unlock sustainable success: for themselves, their teams, and their organisations.

Let's make it happen together.

Director People & Performance

KraftHeinz

The workshop was insightful and empowering. The focus on emotions, breathing techniques, and values provided practical tools we can use daily. Lizzie’s encouragement to confidently own our expertise was inspiring, thank you for such a valuable experience.

Senior Manager

Bainbridge Electrical

I found the sessions interesting and informative. I had low confidence in challenging situations, but found as each session progressed my confidence appeared to grow each time. Lizzie has navigated us through scenarios we are all facing with daily as managers and provided us with new, practical skills to use and build on as we progress as leaders.

Vice President

Korn Ferry

The engagement throughout the session was phenomenal. Lizzie taught the team practical techniques to confidently navigate tough conversations, enhancing their leadership skills. The session was supportive, reassuring, and left a lasting impact on everyone involved.

Senior Manager

PwC

Lizzie’s training was interesting and interactive. I learned how to recognise my stress signals early and pause before reacting, which has made me a calmer, more supportive leader. I’m now handling high pressure projects with much greater confidence, and my team has noticed the difference too.

Head of Product & Pricing

Big Bus

Coaching with Lizzie has been transformative, and feedback from colleagues across the business already reflects the changes. Her guidance challenged me to think more strategically about my department’s direction, I’ve learned to communicate more effectively, set firm yet fair boundaries, handle difficult conversations with ease, and focus on what truly drives progress by cutting through complexity and communicating with intent.

Consultant

OM Consulting

I’ve seen psychologists for 8 years but this was 10x more beneficial. The coaching has been completely life changing. I’ve gained confidence, released limiting beliefs, and re-ignited my spark and motivation. Lizzie’s support, kindness, and passion helped me take ownership of my life and create a future I’m genuinely excited about. It’s been worth its weight in gold!

Deputy Headteacher

The Loyne Specialist School

From the moment we arrived, Lizzie made us feel welcome. 60 staff participated in a session that was informative, empathetic, and well-structured. Everyone left feeling empowered, positive, and equipped with new strategies to better manage their emotions and wellbeing.
