Helping people discover what energises them so they can bring more of their strengths to the way that they work
Work, family, friends, hobbies - with lots of competing demands you have to make choices and prioritise what's most important at that point in time. But how often do you choose to put yourself at the top of that list of priorities?
Coaching gives you the time and space to work out what’s important to you and, more importantly, how to get what you want. Whether it’s a move in your career, more balance in your life or feeling like you’re bringing your best to what you do.

As a development consultant, I am known for taking ownership and working collaboratively across businesses to deliver results both for the individual and the organisation. My focus on the integral role relationships play in developing, delivering and leading business is at the heart of how I work.
I spent a number of years working in learning and development at PwC, leading on strategic projects as well as working with in-house coaching teams. Following this I worked as a career coach and development consultant working across the MBA suite of programmes for Imperial College Business School before moving to international law firm, Eversheds Sutherland, where my focus was on coaching, leadership and talent development. My current portfolio includes working with Executive, Global and Full Time MBAs at Bayes Business School (formerly Cass).
I have a postgraduate certificate in coaching from Roffey Park (in association with the University of Sussex). I am a Strengthscope Master Practitioner, as well as being accredited in NEO, MBTI Step I and other British Psychological Society (BPS) recognised personality psychometrics that support development.
“Danie helped me identify and focus on my strengths at a time when I was feeling stuck in my career. She helped me stay focused on the positive things I could offer and see how much I could do to improve my career prospects.
Danie encouraged me to take responsibility for my actions, in particular defining what I want from my career, looking for new opportunities, and she also supported me with the interview processes. She is very positive, creative and supportive, and draws from a wide set of experiences.
It was a pleasure to work with Danie and would recommend her. With her help I was able to move to another job, which is better suited to my skill set and ambitions.”
Consultant - Professional Services
“Danie is an excellent coach and facilitator who brings her extensive experience in personal and professional development and her positive energy to every assignment she does. She is an excellent listener and takes an empathetic and person-centred approach to her work. She always takes time to understand the need of the client and create a reflective and creative space for people to think for themselves. What I particularly appreciate is her ability to use her intuition during coaching and her willingness in sharing what's coming up for her in a way that allows me to gain fresh insights and different perspectives about the challenge at hand. I highly recommend Danie!”
Finance Professional - Business School
“Our first session came about as a result of repeated frustrations in my professional life – a feeling that my career had stalled, and that I did not have a clear idea of how to move forward. With your help, I succeeded in obtaining a promotion I had been seeking for two years. I came out of the interview for that promotion thinking that whatever happened, I had presented my absolute best and there was nothing more I could have done. The preparation we did together was invaluable.
The benefits of regular, guided sessions are clear in the difference it has made to me personally over the past six months. I would not hesitate to recommend working with you.”
Equity Partner - Law Firm
“ At many points, Danie clarified the root cause of an issue that I believed was something else entirely
Danie was very helpful in helping me find solutions and knew how to find the right balance between helping me find my own answers and providing me with external knowledge that I was lacking in to also help me find my own answers. Not once did I feel that Danie was giving me answers, which was the reason why the sessions were so useful to me.”
Biotech Consultant
“Danie was particularly good at understanding the challenges I was facing, alongside the context. She was able to synthesise the information and frame the challenge in a simpler way. She asked a variety of thought-provoking questions which enabled me to think more deeply about my current mindset and assumptions. She followed this up by asking me to think of solutions in a logical way, whilst prompting me when I hadn’t thought of a particular angle. I found this approach very helpful."
Strategy Consultant
Danie is a wonderful coach, able to provide insights into my ways of thinking and future prospects that alone would have taken me a lot longer to reach. She was always engaged and adapted to my ways of working with grace. Danie provided the extra support I needed to gain clarity and motivation to keep improving my career prospects."
