My experience at your service

When you are facing one of those tricky jobs that are best done by an outsider, I’m ready to help. I bring with me over forty years of successful experience as a teacher, school leader, lecturer, researcher, author, consultant, reviewer and system leader.

Most of all I bring passion for learning, a creative mindset and a commitment to empowering leaders and learning.

Since beginning my consultancy in 2018, I have been privileged to work with schools and systems all over Australia, in PNG, in Peru, in Scotland and Italy. Almost all of these projects have been ongoing partnerships as we have worked together in  the  areas of leadership and learning. You can read about some examples in the more detailed sections which follow, accessed via the Services drop down menu above.
