“I believe that every employee can help your business achieve success.”
I’m Nicola, and I work with Leaders in SMEs, creating more confident leaders who take action, achieve success and build high-performing teams.
About The People Mentor
Management, Leadership & Business Consultancy
I work with you to develop your leadership and management skills, including how to communicate with your team members, balance your kindness and compassion with authority, and create a more impactful leadership style.
It pays to invest in yourself, to get the best results and enhance your career.
Sometimes, you can be too close to what’s going on to understand what’s sitting behind what’s going on.
People can seem complicated & erratic.
You’ve so many areas to cover. Your time is in short supply. Leadership can feel like you are walking a tightrope
I liaise with you and your team, developing great people, brilliant management and leadership and solving difficult employee issues.
Whether you want to develop, grow or inspire your employees, I can help you get the results you want.
I’ll use all the skills and experience I’ve collected over the last 33 years in business leadership as I support you to develop and improve both your team and you. For many years, I compassionately mentored managers in large and small businesses to build high-performing teams and efficient processes.
I understand the juggling of home and work life, having brought up 2 daughters while working full-time and for a while being a single parent.
What worked for my teams was some fun, the ability to listen to each other and a determination to make things happen, as well as a good dose of compassion and kindness. I will show you how to get the best from your team using strong and impactful leadership .
My Chartered Management Institute membership and qualifications mean I’ll be able to draw on the latest learning and updates to help you research your employees’ development goals.
My way of working consists of:
- No nonsense mentoring with practical tools and techniques
- Developing you and your managers into effective leaders using flexible, bite-size training minimising disruption to work and time away from the workplace
- A personalised approach for your business that fits around your needs and strategic goals
- Tuning in to the emotions and any identifying any undercurrents to establish the real cause of any issues
- Honesty and empathy
I know that with the right tools and training, good leaders can become great. I’m here to help you to succeed beyond anything you could ever imagine.
I know you don’t want a typical hard-headed business consultant and mentor. You want someone who is not afraid to look at your leadership dreams and tell you what is needed to get you there, and who will do so with honesty, respect, and empathy.
You want a safe pair of hands.
I want to help you develop your communication skills, grow your leadership skills and build a powerful team that thrives and grows,
A team that enjoys coming to work each day because of your empathetic leadership approach.
Have you ever felt like you’re walking on eggshells in your workplace?
Sometimes, without realising it, we’ve allowed a culture to develop where tough conversations are avoided and issues are left to fester.
Before you know it, you’re facing a mountain of unaddressed problems and a team afraid to speak up.
It’s time to reset the standard in your business.
Talking about open communication is key. Showing that you’re developing your leadership skills and being authentic in your approach to difficult conversations makes a real difference.
If you’re struggling with the “how” of having those challenging conversations, my mentoring and courses will help you develop your leadership and communication skills.
It also gives you a safe space in an online community to practice your approach, bounce ideas around, and gain support from other developing leaders like yourself who are facing similar challenges.
