Helping you and your team thrive

Whether you’re planning webinar or onsite training,  a conference or a retreat, you have important decisions to make. I’m here to help you meet your training needs.

Customized training to support your goals

I bring expertise, and also make time to understand your specific needs. You can expect me to ask questions about your audience as well as your goals and expectations, and any challenges to be overcome. I’ll listen, and then draw on my extensive experience and engage in research to customize your presentation.

Available in person and virtually

I’m flexible, and happy to present in person or virtually – whatever works best for you. Should circumstances dictate tweaking or overhauling plans for how training will be delivered, I’m happy to accommodate.

My 2021-22 in person engagements include presentations in Europe, North America and the UK. In the last couple of years, assistants in 15 countries – Australia, Brazil, Canada, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and the USA – have turned to me for professional development via webinars.
