Work can be a place where people thrive. As individuals and together.
We see work as a place where people can learn, grow and have amazing impact.
We help create great leadership and healthy work cultures. So people, teams and business thrive.
At Human Leaders, our core values are:
-
Supporting human beings to thrive is at the heart of everything we do. Our approach is holistic and honours the unique individual as well as our common humanity.
-
We lean into our discomfort and fear with curiosity and calm, knowing that these create the tension we need to grow and evolve, personally and professionally.
-
We remain true to ourselves and our mission in everything we do at work and beyond. In doing so, we create a safe space for others to do so, too.
-
We understand and embrace that life and leadership are an ongoing journey. We are constantly open to listen, rethink and improve so we evolve our mindset and behavior.
-
We nurture an environment that is safe and welcoming to everyone. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to grow and evolve as a human and as a leader.

Founder & Co-Director
It's through my experience of management – the good the bad and the ugly – that my passion to bring a more conscious, mindful, and human-centric approach to leadership was born.
My experience spans local government, marketing, media consultancy right through to Management at global brand Patagonia, working and living in multiple countries around the world.
Through my privilege of travelling to over 40 countries around the world, my professional experiences and hobbies I’ve learnt my core values are adventure, continuous learning, collaboration, truth seeking, being of service and gratitude. I’m a keen surfer and snowboarder who spends most of my spare time outdoors, connecting to nature and human beings.

Co-Director
After going through a debilitating burnout as a corporate finance lawyer, I realized I need to profoundly change my life to find authenticity and alignment. For over a decade I ran successful copywriting and translation businesses and led yoga, meditation and personal growth retreats around the world, living on 4 continents.
Today, as a Human Leader and a burnout researcher, my mission is to embed wellbeing at work so burnout becomes a redundant term.
My personal values are authenticity, growth, connection, joy and adventure. Australian-born, I live in Amsterdam, speak 8 languages and travel extensively. I get my energy from being in nature, conversations that stretch my brain and sharing a laugh and a Barossa shiraz with friends.

The 3 core pillars of Human Leadership
Human Leadership is a framework for the growth people need to thrive at work and beyond. It’s a path to leadership development with far-reaching impact.
-
To create the change you want to see in the world, you first need to lead yourself.
Self-Leadership means doing the continuous work of understanding yourself more deeply so you can actively move towards your future vision with authenticity.
Self-Leadership has three core components:
Internal Self-Awareness
Emotional Wisdom
Empowered Agency
“As you become self-aware, you’re able to take empowered action to align who you are, and how you want to lead, with your actual impact.”
-
Leading Others is building the skills to nurture strong, healthy interpersonal connections so you foster safe, innovative work environments.
Leading Others has three core components:
External Self-Awareness
Mindful Communication
Cultivating Connection
“Leading Others does not mean managing people. It’s a complex and ever-changing skill set which requires open-minded commitment to learning and rethinking.”
-
Radical Responsibility is holding yourself accountable for all outcomes in your life.
Radical Responsibility has three core components:
Personal Accountability
Wellbeing
Continuous Evolution
“Radical Responsibility is the true final piece of integrating who we are with how we show up as Human Leaders.”
