WELCOME
Courage to grow from ordinary into extraordinary
Business and personal development.
Please contact me if you are curious about how to build a strengths-based culture, grow a business or practice based on the natural talents of the owner and thrive in a life full of Fulfilment, Inspiration, Success and Happiness (FISH!)
Chris helps you focus on aspects of your business that you generally don't give yourself time for, because you don't think they’re necessary until absolutely required. It’s vital to spend time working on your business, not just in your business, and Chris is fantastic at keeping me accountable with this development. You need someone like Chris at your side, to guide you through the difficulty of having to assess and critique your BAU processes, as well as your goals, dreams and values. It turns out to be priceless if you want to change, grow, develop, and enhance your business, or even maintain but create better efficiencies.

Work with me
Personal Development, Leadership, and Business Coaching.
With valuable client relationships extending over more than a decade, I am a partner for the long haul, through thick and thin. Together, we will celebrate the highs and build insight from the lows. My coaching partnerships are built on the individual strengths of my clients, and I aim to bring the best of me to every fruitful encounter.
Strengths-based personal development
Every great leader’s abilities are built on awareness of their extraordinary strengths, and the wisdom to know how and when to overwhelm a weakness.
My development philosophy aims to help every individual discover their unique talents, and build a thriving business, life or career that expresses these talents.
Strengths-based culture change and team building
The power of any team comes from leveraging the collective talents of every individual, and creating an environment where each person’s talents are encouraged.
Transformational and sustainable culture change is more likely to occur when it is built on the exceptional abilities of those creating the change.
Mentoring for CliftonStrengths coaches
There is a growing army of CliftonStrengths coaches and advocates around the world.
With more than 13 years’ coaching experience, and 10 years as a CliftonStrengths advocate, I am keen to give back to those just beginning their own Strengths journey.

A Journey of Fulfilment, Inspiration, Success and Happiness
What if the life you have is already more than enough?
Our relentless pursuit of 'more' never seems to reach 'enough'. Rather than joining the line of books trying to change your life, The Joy of Finding FISH offers the belief that the life you have is already enough. The secret to a more fulfilling, inspiring, successful and happy life is the realisation that it is about being those things, rather than chasing them.
Filled with strategies to create your purpose, live your values, and pursue your Greatest Imaginable Challenge, The Joy of Finding FISH offers insight and inspiration to grow in a way that is personal to you.
Each chapter is rich with stories, swimming through topics such as resilience, embracing courage, celebrating achievements, exploring gratitude, and integrating your life roles in the pursuit of FISH.
