About Dinah
30 years of getting it done
I’ve done the work: challenging situations, global teams, and often the only one like me in the room. I earned trust through delivery and a leadership style that gets results.
Big 4 equity partner: responsibility, not just representation
I learned the unspoken rules, delivered the hard messages and led through complex, challenging stakeholders. Critical thinking, with authenticity.
Independent Non-Executive: oversight, not execution
On the audit committee of a UK professional regulator, I learned the difference between doing and overseeing: deep listening, pattern recognition, and keeping strategy and risk in view together.
ICF Level 2 trained: coaching taken seriously
Coaching is not a side-of-desk hobby for me. I’ve invested the time, supervision and CPD to build my coaching muscle, so I can create and hold the space you didn’t know you needed.

What you can expect
I've been there. My lived and worked experience of complex,
high-stakes environments shapes how I coach. I know what it is to be visible and to decide with no simple answer.
I'll challenge you. Coaching isn't about feeling warm and fuzzy.
It's about the space to explore, to be challenged, and sometimes to be asked the questions you've been avoiding.
I keep learning. Coaching is a discipline I keep sharpening, with ongoing supervision and CPD. Direct and honest, and with your permission I'll share what 30 years has taught me.
I don't offer answers. I ask the questions that help you find your own.
