My Story

“My name is Scott and I have 20 years’ experience as a leader within publicly listed, private family, private equity and small to medium sized businesses within Australia and internationally. I have held senior management roles across FMCG, Print and Packaging in General Management, Operations, Supply Chain, Sales, and Marketing functions. I have led teams through all stages of the business lifecycle including start up, growth and scale up, right sizing and restructuring, through exit and acquisition. At each stage and across different industries the leadership challenge has been unique. I have balanced a successful career while ensuring work life balance was a priority to enjoy family time and its importance. My philosophy is that everyone should have the opportunity to be the best version of themselves and that everyone deserves the opportunity to work with a coach to help them to unlock their true potential to achieve this. There are many competing priorities in life and business and my role as a coach is to support you to focus on what is important to you and to provide the tools help you to make the changes you desire. As a coach I deliver results for business leaders who want to embrace change, who want to take charge of achieving their goals, who need help to find the time to work on the business and guide their business to increase profitability. I believe the key to my success has been my ability to communicate with stakeholders at all levels, being honest and taking accountability for my actions and outcomes. I am a firm believer that “the windscreen is wider than the rearview mirror”

My coaching philosophy is built around the following four key points. Awareness – knowing about purpose, strengths and development opportunities.

Achievement – recognising and celebrating success, no matter how small.

My Story

Hi, I’m Di and I am pleased to be one of the Master Coach Associates on the Peeplcoach team. I am grateful to have learned the skill of coaching early in my Human Resources career which spanned generalist business partnering, learning & organisation development consulting and team leadership. I was able to further enhance my coaching abilities by becoming part of a global pool of internal executive coaches and coaching program facilitators at GSK which solidified my passion for coaching and the results coaching brings. I have worked successfully across a variety of industries including pharmaceutical, FMCG, manufacturing, retail, medical research, retail property management, and health technology in internal roles and as an independent consultant.

With solid experience in the coaching process and a suite of varied tools and techniques to draw on, my aim is to build insight, clarity and action. What I love about coaching is that no two people are the same and therefore each coaching partnership is different and tailored around the individual.

My Story

“My name is Deb McDonald, I have over 30 years’ experience in the education sector and over the past fifteen years, I have held many different leadership roles, from Team Leader, Manager, Associate Director to Director. These roles have involved me leading individuals and teams of between 4-40 staff supporting them to understand their priorities and achieve their goals.

I built my career and expertise at RMIT University, Victoria University, Monash University, The University of Melbourne and Swinburne University where my goal was always to ensure that our graduates were well prepared to manage their careers with clarity and confidence. In my senior leadership roles as Manager, Career Development; Associate Director, Careers and Employability; and Director of Employability my focus was on coaching my leaders to lead strategic priorities and their teams’ performance and outcomes.

Through my roles in leadership over many years, I have developed a passion for professional growth and development of people. As a result, I have recently moved into executive coaching to be able to work with people who are committed to grow and develop in their careers and achieve their professional and personal goals. I believe the capacity for growth and change is in everyone and often just needs to be supported to uncover what is possible.

In addition to being a qualified career consultant and coach, I bring a wealth of knowledge, skills and experience as well as empathy, integrity, and accountability to my coaching relationships.”

My Story

My name is Bronwyn Rose, (I prefer to be called Bron), and I have over 25 years’ experience in facilitation, learning and development, project management and leadership across a range of industries and organisations including Caltex, Campbell Arnott’s, Pfizer, CommBank, The ANA Hotel, the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Department of Education, Department of Infrastructure, Department of Premier and Cabinet to name a few. I have always worked in learning and development. Whether it was teaching teenagers, managing human resources departments, delivering training, designing, and developing leadership programs, coaching, or facilitating team sessions – I have always been involved in building skills, developing self-awareness and encouraging a lifelong love of learning. Coaching is education – from “edu” / “care “- “to draw out.” The coach’s role is to draw out what is already there, hold space for it to be examined and then support the coachee to make connections and define what needs to be learned or actioned next. “Know Thyself” guides our coaching sessions for both coach and coachee. I love being a coach because it challenges me to be open, to be humble and to be willing to do whatever is needed to support a coachee achieve their goals. Sometimes this involves challenging thought patterns and beliefs, and other times it involves supporting and guiding the coachee towards joining the dots and choosing positive actions. Coaching is an opportunity to serve; to share knowledge, skills, and experience at the right time and in the most appropriate way. More than this, coaching is an opportunity to be in the moment and offer exactly what is needed; a direct question, an objective observation or a line of inquiry linked to the current focus of learning. I love the spontaneity and variety that arises when the coaching conversation is open, and intentions are clear. My qualifications include a Bachelor of Education (Social Science / Computing), a Graduate Certificate of Social Science (Human Resource Management), am accredited with the Institute of Executive Coaching and Leadership (Level 3), DISC, Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) and PROSCI (Change Management).

My Story

“My name is Joanne Hall, I am a learning and organisational development specialist. I have a broad range of business experience as part of the Executive Teams of Evolve Housing (not-for-profit) and Employsure (one of Australia fastest growing professional service organisations) and as a commercial lawyer advising global organisations including Nike, Pernod Ricard and Virgin. As such, I understand the talent, cultural and commercial issues facing leadership teams today and have helped them meet these challenges through award winning development, engagement, and recognition strategies. These include leadership development programs, vision and values design, performance systems and skills academies. I support the creation of high performing teams by helping them identify and overcome barriers, agree strategy, and improve communication and collaboration. For me coaching is about empowering others by opening the space for them to pause and reflect. It’s this supportive connection which allows them to challenge their beliefs and uncover new perspectives, explore what really matters to them, understand their strengths and work towards achieving their goals. Creating a higher level of self-awareness ultimately creates choice point where we can decide how we want to respond (rather than simply react) and how we want to show up in the world – and this is what makes a great leader. In addition to my broad industry experience, I am currently completing the Masters in Coaching Psychology at the University of Sydney and am accredited in DISC Advanced Behavioral Profile. I also hold a Bachelor of Laws, Agile and PRINCE2 Project Management and Lean Six Sigma certification and enjoy blending these more traditional business management skills with leadership psychology to provide holistic support for leaders.

My Story

My name is Karin Moorhouse and I have over 35 years business and leadership experience. Over the years, I have lived and worked cross- culturally for international FMCG companies, in places as diverse as Europe, North America, Africa, China and in Australia. I have had the privilege to work for the likes of Nestlé, Unilever, and Treasury Wine Estates, but I’ve done other things too. I volunteered in a war zone with Doctors Without Borders (MSF), wrote a book, studied French and more recently, Mandarin. I am now based in Hong Kong, where I am a consultant to the food industry and a passionate coach. I’ve always loved the buzz of business, especially strategy development and product innovation. But if I am to be honest, the thing I have enjoyed most throughout my career, has been managing and developing people and leveraging the collective energy of a team for performance. During my career, I have managed teams in operationally intense environments, in both developed and emerging markets and led successful M&A projects. As a member of senior leadership teams, I have been under the pump to grow or help turnaround businesses with limited resources, so I understand first-hand the pressures of today’s managers. Yet on reflection, the most inspiring and effective leaders I have encountered along the way, were always genuine and authentic and embraced the principles of coaching in their leadership style. And despite undertaking some excellent training programmes, there were times I wished I had access to a coach, because I know that the candid conversations that come with coaching, help build self- confidence and unlock greater potential. That is why, I am excited to be part of the Peeplcoach team. I genuinely believe that coaching should be more accessible, and that enlightened, one-on-one learning and development programmes are a harbinger for positive change. So, I look forward to helping you find your authentic voice as a leader.

My Story

“My name is Susan and I’m an Ambassador Coach and Partnerships Lead for Peeplcoach in the United States. Over the past 18 years, I have worked in Human Resources in a variety of organizations, ranging from large global financial services and biotech firms to smaller firms and start-up organizations. I have worked with companies such as JPMorgan Chase, AQR Capital Management, Compass Partners (private equity) and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals. In 2015 I started my own business, Elmwood Advisors, a talent advisory and HR consulting and coaching practice. I have worked with firms such as Point72 Asset Management, Balyasny Asset Management, and Kline Hill Partners. All my roles have been focussed on talent development, helping organizations attract, retain, develop, and engage their people, as well as develop and support managers at all levels. My philosophy on coaching is that it is a powerful tool, but has to be based around a genuine partnership between the coachee and the coach. Great things can happen through this relationship – coachees can make significant advancements, grow, learn new things, and expand their horizons. But they have to be the driving force. The role of the coach is both to support and to challenge, but the agenda has to be the coachee’s. I love being a coach because I thrive on being a positive, optimistic, and constructive partner to my coachees – someone they can trust but who will also challenge them when necessary for their development. In addition to my industry experience, I hold a PhD in Social and Organizational Psychology and am accredited in the Hogan Assessment suite, Gallup StrengthsFinder, DiSC management-style assessment, and Interpersonal Leadership Styles assessment. I have completed the Columbia University External Coaching Intensive certification program and practicum, with full certification expected in the fall of 2021. “

My Story

“My name is Sarah Bateman and over the last twenty years I have worked in various roles in human resources, including recruitment, generalist HR and organisational development, across a range of industries in both the UK and Australia. Most recently I have worked for CCI Insurance, Testgrid Consulting and Asahi Beverages. In 2020 I decided to follow my passion and launched my own coaching business. For me, coaching is all about getting people to think differently in order to do differently. I am passionate about seeing people succeed in their careers and lives. There is something so satisfying about seeing an individual whom I have helped working in a role or industry that is genuinely making them happy. When I am coaching someone I often find myself in a state of flow. I hold postgraduate qualifications in HR and Commerce and Careers Education and Development. I completed my Level 1 IECL Organisational Coaching in 2019, and in 2020 I became an accredited strength coaching practitioner. Other instruments and tools that I am accredited in include DiSC; Saville Wave Personality Test and Abilities; OPQ and Abilities; Thomas Personal Profile Analysis; Genos Emotional Intelligence Inventory; and Hogan Personality Inventory. To me, the sign of a good coach is someone who can ask some really curly questions, and who knows when to push and when to be silent. My twenty years in HR have given me exposure to some diverse and interesting people and situations, which has given me the skills and experience to understand complex problems and to identify and navigate solutions quickly. I look forward to getting to know you and partnering with you on your career and leadership journey.”

My Story

My name is Margaret, I have a passion and drive to allow others to see their exponential abilities in all areas of life and be their best. Investing in my own growth and development changed my life, that is why I do what I do today. Working with others to help transform their lives so they too can operate life to their fullest potential, align with their innermost self and create anything they truly desire. We can create everything we want just not all at once. My career has spanned a multitude of industries, across different countries enabling me to work with individuals and organisations to create success. In working with these organisations and industries, I have an expansive understanding of the complexities of organisations and the personal and professional opportunities that exist within. From my experience, the people are who matter! They are the ones that truly drive an organisation, create expansion, evolution and creativity beyond what you think possible. With my unique abilities and personable nature, I bring together both the commercial side of business and underpin this with the critical people element, this is where the magic happens. This is where we see the difference in performance, leadership, personal satisfaction and organisational and role congruence. I create the time and space for individuals to expand, to grow and focus on themselves. This in turn creates a driven individual, powerful teams and an even more successful business. Values create focus, focus creates our reality, I support individuals to see their value and align their focus and create growth. What we focus on grows… Through combining my extensive experience in the corporate world, my personal journey of growth through coaching and now being a coach myself, I hold a unique ability and set of skills that allows individuals to step forward with awareness and intention to provoke or evoke new and different perspectives and skills. My health and wellness background not only creates personal growth but helps support you understand what your bodies needs are, achieving razor sharp focus, endless energy. I support individuals create meaningful opportunities, drive change and unlock exponential growth, we all have untapped potential inside us. There is no one size fits all, working with me will support you with how to unlock yours and discover your own uniqueness. As a person and coach, I value a relationship based on trust, commitment, honesty and collaboration. This allows us to have meaningful dialogue, the right amount of challenge and support to drive for the best outcome. Growth and development are not one dimensional, the whole person is an important, this includes relationships, systems, environment and wellbeing. In addition to my industry experience, I hold a Bachelor of Arts, Postgraduate Degree in Psychology, an MCIPD Diploma, a Level 2 Organisation Coach Certification with the Institute of Executive Coaching and Leadership and am a qualified Nutritional Therapist and Mental Health First Aider. I am also an accredited MBTI practitioner.
