Bio
Errol Williamson
When your manager is also a natural coach and thoughtful mentor you are on to a winner as I was when I worked with Bukky. I had the pleasure of working with Bukky at Hounslow Council during her leadership of the transformation of Corporate Services. I learnt a lot from Bukky’s ability to command a meeting and get even the most resistant people on board. Not matter how tense a meeting, Bukky always managed to ensure people left with a smile. As a team player and a leader, Bukky has my highest recommendation.
Carmel Millar, MSc, MA, MCIPD
Bukky McGlynn is a joy to work with and, quite simply, is the best line manager I have ever come across. Everyone wants to work in Bukky's teams because she dedicates herself to helping people grow and develop. Bukky is driven by her desire for excellence in customer service. She role models great leadership skills of listening, passion, hard work, encouraging others, celebrating success, grasping difficult issues and has a great sense of humour to boot.
