  I headed up the management training division at Mercia. We supported firms and accountancy networks to identify management, leadership and personal development training needs and deliver support (coaching, consultancy, workshops and away days) which were aligned to their departmental and firmwide objectives. I designed and presented a wide range of interactive / experiential sessions to the accountancy and legal professions throughout the UK. I worked mainly within professional practices, supporting teams (graduates up to partner level) helping to develop their non-technical skills. I helped clients to better understand and adapt their behaviours to improve personal productivity and effectiveness, emotional intelligence and practice performance.
