“Transformational leadership is an art and is the greatest yet rarest enabler of enduring workforce loyalty and superior productivity in any organisation’s resource portfolio.”
Margaret Brown
The ability to adapt to and embrace the daily cascades of change in today’s world is a challenge for even the most outstanding thought leaders. To also engage and inspire entire workforce teams in our collective visions of the future depends upon numerous unquantifiable qualities such as courage, insight, intuition, open-mindedness, humility, enthusiasm, adaptability, empathy and creativity.
How does the leader of today balance this somewhat nebulous art with the measurable qualities associated with exceptional strategic thinking and savvy business acumen to deliver their expected traditional KPIs? (Key Performance Indicators)
With a degree in art and a thirty-year international career in Organisational Development, Margaret Brown is ideally placed to help leaders think in new and different ways, inspire their teams to embrace revolutionary thinking and transform their organisations as this ‘sink or swim’ era of exponential change gathers pace.
Whether working 1-1 or delivering large audience conferences, Margaret leads by example with the very qualities that she helps her clients to instill at every level.
She maintains relationships with and can call upon a highly skilled network of professional associates, all of whom share her passion for excellence, each with proven track records in organisational development.
Margaret’s philosophy and approach to her work is based upon building collaborative alliances with her clients at all levels, through seeking to thoroughly understand their cultures, values and drivers, listening to their ideas and concerns and agreeing a platform of mutually honest communication and trust.
Testimonials
“I have rarely come across a consultancy firm that has been able to successfully manage the strong and varied opinions of nineteen senior managers and pull together a Vision and strategy that each and every one of us was happy to own and able to support. You did this within a relatively short time-frame of two days which truly exceeded my expectations, and for this reason we have continued to work with you as our main 360 degree feedback coach and provider of leadership training within Europe. Organizational and leadership development is not an easy field to work within and I consider you to be among the best that I have come across within this industry globally.”
— Robert Estill, VP Strategic Planning & Portfolio, Marathon Oil Corporation
“As Managing Director, it is inspiring to see such energy and ‘can do’ attitude in the
employees at all levels. The positive energy and enthusiasm released is unparalleled in

with us to design, deliver and consolidate the behavioural change in our organisation that
our employees deserve.”
