Her interests lie in developing leaders and teams to allow them to reach their true potential, through increased awareness of themselves, others, their relationships and the complex systems within which they work.
Anna has a particular passion for helping leaders navigate the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous nature of the organisations they work within.
Inherently curious about what makes people tick and why we behave in the way we do, as a business psychologist, Anna brings both psychological & business appreciation to her work. Her experience of working with leaders and teams has highlighted the importance of aligning individual & team development to the needs of the organisation to ensure return on investment and improved performance.
