Tanya Yazdanpanahi

Tanya began her career in the field of Occupational Psychology after attaining her Masters from Manchester University’s School of Management. She quickly progressed to working for a number of blue-chip organisations across the IT and Financial Services Sectors where she held a range of senior leadership roles. One of these took her to Ireland for four years, where she supported a large change project involving the migration and centralisation of a large operations centre.

She left corporate life in 2001 to focus on supporting business leaders and their teams to achieve and sustain high performance. Tanya is also a qualified NLP practitioner and uses numerous development tools including MBTI, Firo-B, Hogan, EQ-i and ei. The latter two reflect the importance she places on emotional intelligence as a predictor of success in business.

Tanya is as comfortable working one-to-one as she is with teams and groups. She is an accredited coach with the Association of Professional Coaches and Supervisors (APECS). With her insight and inherent ability to make connections and see the bigger picture plus a practical, realistic and honest approach, combined with the importance she places on understanding an organisation’s culture and commercial situation, Tanya is able to bring a unique blend and approach as a performance consultant.
