Influence & Impact 

Helping female leaders become brilliant at influencing, tackle self-doubt and make more impact at work.

Let’s be honest, even for those of us who love our jobs, leadership can be tough at times.

Perhaps some of these resonate with you?

  • You constantly feel pressured and rushed at work, juggling multiple tasks and other people’s needs and feeling like it is impossible to get it all done

  • You’re always putting your own needs last and rarely find time for your own development as a leader

  • You look like you’ve got it all under control but actually worry is keeping you up at night and you struggle to switch off from work

  • You feel like your inner critic, that negative voice in your head, is really loud. And then you proceed to beat yourself up for having such a loud inner critic!

  • You want to develop your career and need to be seen as credible at that next level of leadership

  • You want to be taken seriously when you walk into a room of senior stakeholders

  • You want to be able to calmly and powerfully respond to challenging situations and negative feedback rather than react to them

  • Imposter syndrome crops up for you regularly causing you to doubt yourself

  • You set really high standards for yourself and can always see how you could have done things better

If those challenges resonate then you could be experiencing what I call the “Influence Gap”

So you work harder and harder in the hope of finally getting everything under control and having your potential recognised and your opinion valued. And I’m telling you from personal experience – that is a path to overwhelm, exhaustion and burnout!

Because the answer isn’t to work harder. Successful leaders didn’t become successful because they worked harder than anyone else. They got there by being brilliant at influencing.

No matter how good you are at your job and how well you manage a team it is almost impossible to succeed as a leader without the ability to influence upwards and sideways. Can you think of any leader you admire that hasn’t mastered influencing?

When you know how to influence others effectively so many things become possible for you…

  • Tensions between departments get resolved

  • Previously challenging colleagues are on your side

  • CEOs start listening to what you have to say and even actively asking for your input on decisions.

  • You can clear the way for your team to be able to deliver at a high level without obstacles

  • Your potential within the organisation is recognised

Influencing is a leadership superpower!

And influencing starts with working on your own mindset. After all, can you really expect others to get fully on board with your plans when you are constantly doubting yourself?

It was when I focused on mastering my mindset (so I could lead myself) and learning how to influence (so I could lead others) that things really shifted for me.

I went on to be promoted to CEO in a charity and later became Managing Director of a leading recruitment company - despite being new to recruitment! And as a coach and consultant I’ve worked in and for many organisations now, dealing with CEOs and boards on a daily basis, influencing with ease and helping shape the direction of the organisation. And I’m much happier now I’ve mastered my mindset too!

When I shared these techniques with my coaching clients they started…

  • Getting promotions

  • Being given a seat at the table for decision-making

  • Receiving better feedback from their line manager

  • Improving their relationships with their peerseerst

That’s why I created my 3 part Influence & Impact framework which forms the core of my Influence & Impact group coaching programme for female leaders.
