The team I am working with today know David Clutterbuck’s High Performing Team (HPT) model really well. But we need a bit of energy and zhuzh. So, I put together the apple tree analogy below. To grow the apples that stakeholders need, HPT’s need the right leadership, clear purpose, strong relationships, learning and continuous improvement, and good internal and external processes.


If you would like to know more about how to grow a HPT, or, how to grow perfect apples, please get in touch.

For me it’s mountains – the bigger the better, and preferably with snow. I'm a winter person.

Where do you feel a spiritual connection... calm, centered and at peace with the universe? Is it the beach? Lake? Forest? Garden? I bet for most of you it involves nature.

Spend more time in your happy place, it’s vital for your soul. And if you can’t get there, look at pictures (there is empirical evidence that looking at pictures of nature has a positive impact on your wellbeing.)

If you would like to talk more about your happy place and connection with your soul, please get in touch.

I am always telling clients to look after themselves. Recently a college reminded me to do the same! So, I’m hiding this week… really hiding… recharging, processing and thinking. And, what a beautiful remote place to find some oxygen.

We all need time to replenish from time to time, and if you are an introvert like me, even more so. Are you putting your own oxygen mask on first?
