Anglie

I've spent over 20 years inside some of the organisations you'd recognise - Waitrose, John Lewis, Atkins Realis, On-Running, Nomad Foods - first as a leader myself, then as the person leaders call when things get hard.

I've sat in the boardroom during a culture crisis. I've coached leaders through the moment they realised the version of themselves that got them here won't get them to the next level. I've built teams from the ground up and watched them become genuinely great. That's not theory - it's over twenty years of doing the job.

What I bring alongside that experience is a cultural intelligence lens most coaches don't have - shaped by growing up between cultures, and years spent noticing what changes (and what doesn't) when leaders operate across difference. It means I tend to see what's not being said in a room, and I've learned how to name it in a way that lands, not lands on someone.

Clients tend to describe me the same way: warm, direct, and impossible to slide anything past. I'll tell you what I see. I'll also be in your corner the whole way through.If you're looking for someone who's actually done this - not just studied it - let's talk

Real Challenges. Real Impact

Every organisation faces its own unique hurdles and challenges - and the goal is to find a path to achieve meaningful results. Below you will find a selection of case studies highlighting some of the teams I have partnered with.
Have a read through to see how I help organisations solve complex problems and drive lasting success.

01)

Atkins Realis

Design Engineering & Project Management Consultancy

Working with one of the divisions Exec teams’ I ran CQ workshops to build their capability in Cultural Intelligence – whether that be working across the globe, across different functional specialisms, or across different generations. Creating true psychological safety, we were able to unpack the real challenges that leaders were experiencing on a weekly basis and build their capability and resilience to operate at their best, and to build cultures that their teams could thrive in.

Result:
The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and resulted in them commissioning me for further workshops and keynote talks. I continue to support them in a CQ capacity across various different pieces of work, and in service of their Diversity & Inclusion strategy.

02)

Third Space

Luxury Health & Wellness Brand

The Challenge:
Having previously consulted for Third Space, I then returned in 2024 to cover their People Director’s Maternity Leave. 

What I delivered:
During my time with them, I led and coached a people team of 12 through a period of high growth – opening 6 new clubs in 7 months, the introduction of a new HR system, a redesign of their L&D strategy for Senior Leaders, and I designed and led the roll-out of a Culture & Inclusion Strategy. 

The Impact:
The CEO’s feedback:
‘Anglie you have been a force of such positive impact. Mat cover, personal coach and cultural intelligence expert all rolled into one inspiring person. Uncommon talent.’

Nomad Foods

Europe's leading largest frozen food company

Inclusive Leaders Program – I delivered a series of workshops to Nomad’s non board directors across Europe. Using my cultural intelligence expertise I ran group coaching workshops on eg Inclusive Leadership and Inclusive Hiring.

Results:
These were a resounding success and have been embedded in their BAU L&D offer – I supported this through train-the-trainer delivery at the end of the project.

Why Work With Me

Because you’ve probably tried other forms of coaching, and leadership development. You’ve done the psychometrics, you’ve got the reports – and yet you’re still here, looking for something that will actually move the needle.

What my clients tell me, consistently, is that the difference isn’t the frameworks or the tools. It’s that for the first time, they felt genuinely seen – and genuinely challenged – in the same breath, that combination is rare.

You get 20+ years of real organisational experience. Not theory. Board rooms, SLTs,  culture crises, leadership failures, turnarounds – I’ve been in the thick of it across financial services, retail, consulting, engineering, and media.

You get someone who understands the cultural dimension of leadership. Whether you’re leading across geographies, generations, or identities – I bring a cultural intelligence lens that most coaches simply don’t have.

You get honesty that doesn’t leave bruises. I’ll say what I see. I’ll name what’s not being said. And I’ll do it in a way that leaves you feeling capable, not criticised.

You get a coach who adapts to what you actually need. Some sessions are strategic. Some are deeply personal. I follow your lead and hold the bigger picture at the same time.

You get results you can point to. Promotions secured. Teams transformed. Leaders who finally feel like themselves in the role – and perform like it.

One conversation is all it takes to know whether this is the right fit. Book yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does executive coaching involve?

Executive coaching isn't a soft chat about your feelings. It's a confidential partnership built to help you lead better - with more clarity, more confidence, and more impact.
We talk honestly. I'll challenge you, not just agree with what you say. Together we work through the real stuff - the decisions you're wrestling with, the conversations you're avoiding, the blind spots holding you back - and we’ll build the tools that you need to handle them differently next time.
This isn't about fixing you. You're not broken. It's about helping you become more of who you already are, on purpose.

I work with leaders at every stage of their journey, including emerging leaders stepping into management roles, senior executives navigating complex organisational challenges, and experienced leaders seeking greater clarity, influence, and long-term impact. Coaching is tailored to individuals across a wide range of industries and sectors.

No two leaders face the same challenges, which is why every coaching engagement is designed around your unique goals, circumstances, and leadership context. I take the time to understand where you are, where you want to be, and the obstacles standing in your way. Together, we create a focused coaching plan that aligns with your priorities, adapts as your needs evolve, and delivers practical strategies that support lasting growth and measurable impact.

Yes. Coaching sessions are available virtually, allowing leaders to access support from anywhere. Online coaching provides the same level of confidentiality, engagement, and effectiveness as in-person sessions while offering greater flexibility to fit around busy schedules.
