Biography

During her long career Chris has experienced leadership from many perspectives. Her early career in financial services saw her become the youngest women to reach senior management in a global bank which also established her reputation for developing women in leadership. As an entrepreneur, she set up and grew her own business to over 200 people steering it through a series of mergers and acquisitions until its final acquisition by IBM. She now devotes her time and experience to helping other leaders rise to the unprecedented challenges we face today and to achieve their own dreams.

“Leading organisations in a highly challenging environment is a great responsibility and leaders can have a profound impact on the lives of many people. My mission is to help leaders discover their power and create the kind of organisations we as a society need desperately in order to survive and thrive in today’s world.”

Drawing on this extensive business experience, Chris has coached hundreds of men and women and advised FTSE/Fortune directors and boards on 5 continents and in nearly every industrial sector.

Chris embraces fun, humour and irreverence but with a serious purpose. Her energy ignites people and makes them want to come on the journey. She is warm and trusting but also pushes people out of their comfort zone challenging their expectations of themselves. She connects deeply on a personal level and has great empathy for the challenges faced by leaders. With a passion for flying trapeze and golf, Chris embodies the unexpected and enjoys engaging with people from very diverse backgrounds.
