Quiet confidence. Be seen, be heard, and be successful quietly and confidently.

Lily helps leaders unleash their success superpower and thrive in their careers, accelerating the change needed to realise their vision successfully.

She is an executive coach, culture and leadership expert, published author, and accomplished international speaker. She was previously an executive contributor for Brainz Magazine and featured on Forbes. She’s also a well-versed practitioner for DiSC, Hogan and TalentPredix assessments.

As an ex-corporate person, she gets it.

She understands what it’s like to be constantly firefighting endless challenges, feeling overwhelmed and without the headspace to focus on the things that matter most to you. Making positive changes that drive real value often seems like an unattainable goal. And that feeling and constant anxiety and frustration suck big time.

That’s why she’s on a mission to change that. She is uniquely qualified to share her experience and techniques because she has been in your shoes and knows how it feels. She’s here to help you shift behaviours, unlock potential, transform careers, and develop courageous cultures.

It’s time to get purposeful and intentional, break the glass ceiling, and unleash your full potential.

Lily partners with companies to assess, design, and bring workplace cultures that are uniquely theirs to life. She advises and trains executives to be courageous and improve coherence and accountability to drive high performance.

As an ex-Deloitte consultant, she has led multimillion-pound programmes to enhance organisational effectiveness and drive large-scale challenges. Since leaving consulting, she has worked with international clients to build successful careers, tap into their competitive advantage, and foster inclusive, high-performing cultures.

She authored Quiet Confidence: Thriving in a World Full of Noise, sharing her introverted journey on how she has taken charge of her career to carve out a role she’s passionate about while still in employment.

She has been invited to present at multiple global conferences, including SAP, BAFTA, Project Management Institute, Society for Human Resource Management, Women in Agile, and Business Change & Transformation Conference, speaking on topics ranging from “Inclusivity in the Workplace,” “Being Influential,” and “Reinventing Career Advancement Holistically.”

She has also appeared in various leadership and culture podcasts, sharing her inspiring story.

This book will guide them through a journey from accepting their introverted side to practical ways to create a space where they can bring their whole selves to work and succeed in their profession.
