About me

I headed a nonprofit educational organisation with a team of 18 and saw how much energy can go into avoiding conflict instead of giving it a place. What a mission statement says, and what actually happens between people, doesn’t always match. That gap does not close through better wording, it closes when an organisation is willing to look at itself.

People in Practice was born from that experience, and from the observation that the way humans feel seen, respected and at ease at work can heavily influence the productivity of teams. Organisations and companies are social places with their own structures, contradictions and histories.

I come from social and cultural anthropology, a field that works over long periods, involves the people it studies in shaping the questions, and depends on trust. The same is true for the culture work I offer alongside organisations.

I also bring qualifications in stress management, mental health, systemic team coaching and a deep interest in human interaction, communication and relationships.
