A Driver of Change…

Nicky has extensive experience across varied human service environments and cultures and is able to examine, assess and understand complex issues and unique situations that become challenges for teams and organisations. With a wealth of resources, skills and strengths, she inspires, challenges, values and supports the right people and in doing so, organisations are empowered to enact change that is lasting and sustainable.

A Strategic Problem Solver…

Creative and strategic thinking together with developing trusted partnerships, are just a few of the hallmark methodologies Nicky draws upon to co-produce unique and innovative systems to tackle complex issues and resolve problems. Nicky isn’t limited or discouraged by usual constraints. She is a visionary and brave problem solver who empowers those around her to overcome their own fears, assert their needs and find their voice to develop agency.

Authentically Showing Up…

Nicky is utterly herself in all contexts and in doing so, powerful partnerships are created. Her ability to model authentic, brave and humane leadership, invites others to be themselves and contribute honestly to the environments and challenges they face. This refreshing and shared space is a powerful forum to address and overcome barriers and introduce new possibilities.

A Complex Thinker…

Nicky employs multiple perspectives and theoretical frameworks in her work and seeks to unravel the many layers and interpretations of phenomena. She does not rely on the obvious or apparent and understands the complexities and multiple factors that contribute to compound experiences. Her analysis and examination provide a rich and robust framework which in turn delivers extensive opportunities and possibilities to explore.

Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable…

Nicky is a specialist in practice and people management, professional development and identifying the constraints and systems that oppress and limit human creativity and agency. She understands the personal and collective processes that stir the status quo, and she is committed to challenging and deconstructing the bureaucracies, systems and institutions that perpetuate oppression and disempowerment of the most vulnerable. She takes risks, is able to hold uncertainty and ambiguity and supports others to face and address the ‘uncomfortable’ and ‘unknown’, which in turn affords them with opportunities to grow and develop.
