As an Executive Coach and Learning Facilitator Charlotte has worked predominantly within the entertainment and charity industry. She’s worked with prominent individuals in both industries, helping to develop their talent and achieve the success they desired. She’s had significant experience in working with, but not exclusively, radio and TV presenters, musicians and managers and for companies such as the BBC, Global, Universal Music, Sony, British Red Cross, BBC Children in Need.
Specialising in professional development Charlotte enables people to perform at their best, achieve their goals and unlock their full potential allowing them to become their best self.
A particular focus is enabling women to return to work after maternity leave or career break. For many women navigating that first year back can be challenging. Battling hormones, loss of identity, confidence levels and the pull between work and home can be destabilising and may lead to them leaving or not reaching their full potential as they can’t quite traverse successfully through the initial year back. By nurturing returning parents, organisations will hopefully be able to retain their highly trained employees and make this new journey in their life more enjoyable and productive.
