Bio
Cristina P.
Martha is a force of nature. She is incredibly intelligent and hard-working, and completely committed to making the world a better place. I worked with Martha at Shelter and Save the Children where she was instrumental in achieving significant changes to UK law and government policy, helping improve the lives of those each charity supports. She is highly strategic and a great communicator, always delivering complex messages in a clear and compelling way. She is also a very supportive and caring colleague and an absolute pleasure to work with.

A true Leader! Martha continually 'wowed' me with her ability to draw people, to motivate, to negotiate and represent a diverse and strong population. Her manner was always one of humility, Martha did not seem to realise how powerful her skills and abilities were! She led a strong team, managing disagreement and conflict with the utmost professionalism and saw things through ensuring all had a voice and that constructive conclusions were met. Martha is always pragmatic, highly efficient, open minded to alternative views, empathetic, conscientious, honourable and inclusive - I would be thrilled to work with Martha again, I have no doubt that she will be a great success in anything she chooses to do!
