My Journey to YLD!

Hello I’m Yvonne!

I’m a Leadership and Personal Development Coach and the founder of Yvonne’s Leadership Development.

How Did I Get Here?

Over the past 20 years I’ve dedicated myself to leadership training and mentoring across various levels in different industries.

My journey began in high-end ladies fashion retail and there I really developed a deep understanding of leadership and empowerment. So, my passion lies within helping female leaders unlock their full potential and my experience in that industry has really been instrumental in shaping my approach, my knowledge and understanding.

More recently I’ve been working with the fire service to support female development in that arena and fostering male allyship and the importance there. This experience has really enriched my perspective and reinforced my belief in that importance of diversity and inclusion within leadership.

My Expertise

I specialise in supporting individuals with self-development as well as aspiring and existing leaders through personalised coaching sessions and I can tailor that to suit anyone’s needs. It is mainly in terms of that self-awareness and building that profile for themselves. My coaching philosophy centres on a self- leadership approach and by working on personal development and growth. I really do believe you can’t lead others successfully until you can effectively lead yourself!

In my sessions I focus on helping clients build that self-awareness, that confidence and those skills that are necessary to navigate their personal and professional lives with that authenticity and resilience.

I’ve got feedback from my clients that really has rewarded me and it helps so much to hear how our work together has transformed their lives and brought anew sense of empowerment and motivation to them.

Seeing them achieve their potential and thrive is probably the most fulfilling part of my work. My business strapline is ‘Be the change you wish to see, your passion is your power’ and I have that on my wall in my office. I love to see that growth mindset in others that I’ve really built up myself within the recent years and it’s my ambition to help others to see this benefit so I encourage this approach in the work I do with everyone.

A Little About Me

I’m a certified coach with the international Coaching Federation, more commonly known as the ICF. I trained with Optimus Coach Academy, which is fantastic training and it really equipped me with tools and techniques to provide effective coaching which I can really tailor to each individual need.

Additionally I’ve recently been awarded the Chartered Management Institute’s Chartered Status. This credential for me really reflected my commitment to to excellence and continuous professional development, particularly within the management and leadership sector.
