Job Titles:
- Client Support Coordinator
My role of Client Support Coordinator is very diverse which is exactly how I like it to keep each day interesting. After a previous career in Hospitality, customer service is at the forefront of everything I do. I really enjoy engaging with our clients to build a rapport and be the first line of support to enable participants to get the best out of our programmes and materials. I also enjoy the challenge of problem solving and will inevitably spend time trying to figure something out myself before seeking assistance - usually by pestering the Tech team!

I love what I do and who I am at Mindset Practice. From my early days as a Nurse and Health Visitor there has been a golden thread in my career that has focused on enabling others to be their best selves at work and at home.
That is why I live and breathe the Mindset Practice mission of enabling others to show up from a Mindset of Growth rather than Survival.
My passion is helping people thrive at work which is why I love what I do at Mindset Practice. In today's busy and sometimes frantic work environments, getting into a pattern of being reactive and not having time to reflect on our reactions and intentions has a big impact on our working lives. Our work at Mindset Practice involves empowering people to make some really small but powerful changes to their mindset to address this which helps both professionally and personally.

Imagine what we could achieve if everyone showed up more from a mindset of Growth rather than Survival? I believe everyone has the capability to do this and I see it as my and Mindset Practice's mission to achieve this.
I'm often asked "what inspired me to start Mindset Practice"? Key to my answer is a 400m final I ran when I was 14. I was up against two boys who were the best at sport in my school year. I was winning, way ahead. As I entered the final 150m I felt fear. I looked around and screamed at the boys behind me to catch-up. I deliberately slowed down to come third.
I firmly believe nobody gets up in the morning intending to do a bad job. The challenge is we're not usually taught how to identify and manage our Survival habits at school or at work. As Chief Psychologist at Mindset Practice I have been able to use my talent with applied humanistic psychology - and my own mission to be the best person I can be - to realise not only my ability to win races but to help others win theirs.
I feel inspired spending time with my wife, sons and daughter exploring new experiences and enjoying being together. I love music and spinning my vinyl records, often to 80s tunes. I'm also a Manchester United fanatic, though that has definitely tested my mindset practice in recent times!
I'm my best self in a mindset of Growth when I'm empowering others to step out of their comfort zone, transform their mindset and deliver accountable, practical and sustained change.
You will know I'm in Survival when you see me hide and retreat. It doesn't happen that often anymore, but if you see it a helpful nudge is always welcome.
I was involved with Mindset Practice from the very beginning and have played a big part in the platform becoming what it is today. When the chance to join the team on a permanent basis arose, it felt like the perfect fit for me and a great opportunity to take this project to even greater success.
As Technical Director I get great satisfaction from producing innovative digital products that are intuitive and enjoyable to use. A lot of what I do behind the scenes might be invisible, but I'm happy knowing that it all contributes to creating a robust tech environment that allows the rest of the team to deliver the programmes as effectively as possible.
I am slightly obsessed with data privacy and changing behaviour around sensitive data. Instilling strong data handling principles without interfering with productivity can be a challenge at times.
Outside of work, I am a keen homebrewer and enjoy sharing the results with family and friends. I have two sons and play 5-aside football every week.
Like an explorer, my motivation in life is to find new possibilities. I started out as an engineer working in the mobile phone industry when it moved from making simple voice calls to accessing the internet. My career went from being a university researcher exploring new technologies to growing successful businesses as a systems engineer, leader and manager in the hi-tech sector.
