Select Empowerment
01 Targeted Growth Created for Emerging Leaders
Too often we select great teachers to become leaders then don't put in the supports and intentional learning required for those new leaders to have success. Let me help you to put those supports in place.
02 Unique Pathways
Want something more bespoke? We can listen carefully to your needs and create something just for your kura/team/individual.
03 Expert Coaching
Not everyone can be a coach. It is a dance between listening and speaking; knowing when to offer to ideas and when to allow the coachee to take the lead; knowing when to challenge and when to empathise or affirm. This is strengths based, nuanced, insightful coaching with someone who deeply cares about you and your growth.

Emma listens and coaches well without problem solving situations for me. Positive kaiārahi who gives time to find further readings and links for myself. Has a calm manner about her. She makes you feel comfortable to share and express concerns. Great positive feedback.... Greatly appreciated.
Linda (Deputy Principal)
Loved working with Emma- she was supportive, caring and so helpful with extra readings and suggestions. I felt very comfortable communicating honestly with her and it helped me a lot.
Kate (Middle Leader)
Emma has been really supportive and responsive to our points of discussion. I felt that she remembered my concerns/ vision from our previous conversation and felt heard, respected and valued in our follow up conversation. She came across as very experienced and had plenty to contribute towards my inquiry focus and was able to provide valuable feedback.
Siouxzan (Middle Leader)
Emma has been fantastically supportive and helpful - always solutions-focussed and positive. She has been a confidential source of guidance and has directed me towards professional learning. If it was possible to continue working with Emma, I would really value this.
Alistair (Dean)
Emma has been incredible. I love that Emma is a young, like minded leader. I have learnt alot from her and felt very supported during the year. Nga Mihi Emma.
Stephen (Team Leader)
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for how much you helped me last year. Your mentoring and coaching made such a meaningful impact on me as a leader and personally. You were so supportive but also told me when I needed to 'put on my big girl pants'. Most importantly you also pointed out the positives when I couldn't see them and so I never got stuck in a negative mindset!
You are a remarkable person and I feel privileged to have worked with you. I aspire to one day match the standard you have set!
Pip (Head of Department)
Emma has been outstanding; when I have been in a challenging situation, she has made herself available to talk things through and offer advice. Emma has always made it clear that what is shared is in confidence and this has been really helpful in me feeling able to be honest. I have also appreciated Emma's regard for my wellbeing - this is above and beyond expectations of a kaiarahi. Thank you.
