I have always been passionate about understanding, supporting and upskilling others and helping them make their unique colours shine bright. Becoming a Gallup-Certified Strength Coach brings me back to the roots of my Psychology degree. In the 20+ years since, I have gained experience in large international corporations (8+ years at Cisco Systems), been a conference speaker, sat on the board of a not for profit organization for over 5 years (IIBA NZ chapter) and created and taught a tertiary degree course in Business Analysis. I spent the first part of my career experiencing first hand being a Project Manager, a Programme Manager and a Business Analyst and then moved into the consulting space becoming a trusted adviser within small, medium and large organisations across a wide variety of industries.
I started “Butterfly Business Consulting” in 2013 with the vision of enabling transformational change in individuals, teams and organisations. With the client goal as the starting point, I can draw on experience in the fields of Business Analysis, Change Management, Strategic Management, Project Management, Process Management, Coaching and Mentoring, Communication and Training to focus on results and add value.
On the personal front, I am a mother (Alexandra was born in 2003 and Harrison in 2006), lived in 3 different countries (having moved from Israel to the UK at the age of 13 and then to New Zealand in 2005) and fluent in both English and Hebrew.
I believe all of the above puts me in a unique position to be of service both at an individual level and in helping teams work better together to get to outstanding results.
My promise to my individual clients:
When you are with me you will be truly seen and accepted without judgement. You will have a safe space to be supported as you explore yourself and I will help you create the best version of yourself that you are ready to become. I will challenge you and take you outside your comfort zone to help you exceed your goals and achieve your outcomes while along the way we will also joyfully play. I look forward to coming along on your adventure of gaining a deeper understanding of yourself.
For my team clients:
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts when everyone understands their own strengths, values each other’s strengths even when they are different to their own, and are aware of how much more productive the team can be when teamwork is allowed to truly flow. Having worked with many different teams of different sizes, industries, cultures and organisations, I can help your team realise its potential.
