Background
One of the founders of Leadership Creativity, Anna delivers amazing outcomes for leaders and their teams.

Anna brings a background as a successful STEM executive in financial services, IT and telecommunications businesses across the globe.

Originally from the UK, she held director-level roles in Australia, US and Asia over a 20-year senior leadership career.

Anna has experienced the thrill of successfully leading major international projects, achieving many business and personal goals. Anna is uniquely skilled at dealing with the significant pressures, demands and uncertainties involved in leading in high-pressure, results-driven environments.

Anna has a deep knowledge of the structures, disciplines and approaches that enable businesses to sustainably scale. Anna has used this knowledge and experience to mentor and coach hundreds of leaders and teams to apply these frameworks, concepts and approaches, delivering hugely successful business outcomes.

Coaching Approach
Anna is committed to help leaders at all levels become all that they can be, both for themselves and for the people they need to provide vision, leadership and guidance to.

Anna’s coaching style is practical and action-oriented delivering achievable outcomes for her clients. Anna supports leaders to demonstrate a combination of strength, vulnerability and creativity to attract and retain a talented and engaged workforce, driving high-performance.

Anna provides structured coaching around the four fundamental pillars of a great leader; improving culture, communication, productivity and resilience. Lifting skills across these pillars aligns leaders and their teams around a clear purpose and common approach.

Anna believes that when leaders open themselves to improved ways of leading, they can then support others to do the same. This in turn raises the performance of entire teams and organisations, with highly engaged and fulfilled teams delivering amazing results.

Every day we support leaders to discover how they can become more efficient and effective in the way they lead. We help them align with their team, their peers, their stakeholders and their customers. Instead of their focus being on the things that are holding them back, they can direct their energy forward to create a brighter future.
