For my coaching clients, both leaders and teams, together we build their understanding and efficacy, first of themselves and then of the people systems they wish to influence. I only take on coaching clients who I really believe in. I request their commitment to be fully who they can be, and I match their commitment and more, within the coaching relationship. Every client I have leaves me profoundly inspired as they achieve their outcomes and make real who they have aspired to be.

I am passionate about what I do. I enjoy every day that I have the opportunity to contribute and to create greater value. I seek continuously to find ways of improving value. I believe real value only increases where there is integrity, and that to deliver reliably means understanding the issues underlying what clients really want and need.

For 30+ years, I developed, managed, led and supported organization change. I have designed and delivered business information systems on client facing projects through ICL(UK)Ltd and P-E Inbucon and subsequently as an independent consultant working collaboratively within teams across a wide range of different sectors including manufacturing, financial services, non-profit, central and local government.

Before my current career, I developed, managed, lead and supported organization change. At Reuters Plc, I managed key business change programmes, working closely with Directors and providing progress and risk reports to the Reuters Group Board. I have also coached and trained business executives, project managers and senior staff in education. pharmaceutical, oil, defence, public arts, non-profit, finance and technology sectors.

Eileen works with leaders and teams across the sectors in the UK and abroad. She has a particular interest in helping people and organisations navigate complex change. Eileen views the world through a systemic lens but also draws on a range of psychological, business and change frameworks.

A systemic approach helps to illuminate hidden dynamics and relational entanglements to bring fresh insights and move things forward.
