Senior Director, Knowledge and Learning Experiences, Institute of Food Technologists
Passionate educator and online experience designer. Excited to bring you Careers InFocus!
My career mission is to create greater respect, trust and kindness within organisations by helping people understand themselves and each other.
For over 20 years, I have worked with employee and leader attitudes and opinions. Using a range of feedback and workshop techniques, I model quality feedback and group discussion processes. And by using simple and explicit frameworks, I help leaders develop a shared understanding of culture and adopt practical ways of improving it.
Switch Education is committed to learner-centred approaches to digital education by helping learning professionals deliver the best learning experiences and learning outcomes possible. Our focus is on helping them develop the confidence and competence they need to transition from traditional, classroom learning to contemporary digital education. By putting pedagogy first, we remove the mindset obstacles and behavioural blockages that often prevent the creation of dynamic, online learning content, courses and programs. Our design, research and development processes use our 3-stage change model that is underpinned by Social Cognitive Theory, a proven approach through its core focus on boosting learner and educator self-efficacy beliefs. For over 25 years, I have worked as a management educator and leadership development consultant in Business Schools, Consultancies and Not-for-Profits in Australia, USA, Canada and the UK. Launching Switch fulfills my lifelong dream of giving educators, educational leaders, managers and leaders access to the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to thrive. My approach to pedagogy is strongly influenced by social cognitive theory and its core principle of self-efficacy beliefs. Digital technology provides an amazing opportunity to bring my dream to fruition. I've published articles in leading organisational psychology, HRM and education journals and blog regularly on digital education, management and leadership issues.

I've worked as a writer and communicator for the past 5-6 years, staring off in-house before going freelance in 2017. I specialise in tech and future of work trends, covering most buzzword-y topics like artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, smart cities and data (hopefully without the buzzwords!). In my spare time, I like to take long walks with my dog, explore London's coffee shops and travel.
