Hi, I'm Steph
AUTHOR, SPEAKER, LEADERSHIP COACH, MASTER FACILITATOR AND TRAINER
My work is in the space between us:Â between the public and government; between citizens and their neighbours; between leaders and their teams...usually when there is conflict or high emotion. In this space, we can solve our problems and find a way forward - together.
"In the end it's people that matter to me. People, and the shift from conflict to possibility that happens when we have Brave, Honest Conversations together. Conversations that change each of us, and the world around us too."
