Taking time to pause and reflect
How often do you take the time to pause and reflect? To see how far you’ve come as a team, to recognise what everyone’s been through and to congratulate team members on how well they’ve dealt with it? The answer is possibly not often enough. The great news it, that you could take action to […]
Blue Diamond retreats are back
Ever wonder if you’ve bitten off more than you can chew? That’s what I was asking myself at times in the first week of March. But it all came together in the end! On the first weekend of March, I ran not one, but two face-to-face retreats! I know, I know, what could have possessed me […]
New affiliation for Blue Diamond
When you meet someone for the first time You never know quite where it might lead… I first met Cristina Vannini-Goodchild at a networking meeting 2 years ago.

Face to Face Workshops are Back! After a 17 month break, I delivered my first face-to-face workshop at a client’s office in July. I say face-to-face, it was actually in a large room and we were all very social distanced from each other, but you get the picture. And, I’m pleased to say it felt great! […]
It’s not what you know, it’s who you know
I hate to say this, but… It’s not just what you know, it’s who you know. It somewhat still surprises me that “who we know” can factor in many important decisions. Our decision-making capability comes from the heart as much as through our heads. Throughout my working life, much of my work has come through […]
Mid-Summer Motivational Madness
