It should change what your people do after the workshop, not just what they know on the day. That means identifying the clients and relationships worth developing, practising commercially useful conversations and agreeing on a realistic follow-up rhythm. Leaders also need to reinforce those habits, otherwise the training stays in the room. Ellen shapes team workshops around your team’s commercial context, with practical actions that can be reviewed after the session. Tell us what you want to improve.

Absolutely! We customise all corporate programs to address your specific challenges. Whether it's executive coaching, team workshops, or organisational change facilitation, we work with you to design something that fits your needs and budget.

Yes — Ellen regularly MCs corporate events, conferences, and panel discussions. She brings warmth, energy, and sharp facilitation skills that keep audiences engaged throughout the day. You can book her for speaking, MCing, or both.

Start by submitting an enquiry or booking a free 15-minute call. We'll discuss your event, audience, and objectives, then provide a tailored proposal. Ellen's team typically responds within 24 hours on business days.

Ellen's executive coaching is practical, outcomes-focused support for leaders navigating complexity, pressure, and change. Sessions are typically fortnightly, and engagements run for 3–6 months depending on objectives. It's not abstract or 'coachy' — it's commercially credible, grounded in real business contexts, and designed to build skill, confidence, and capability.

Team coaching is an ongoing engagement that builds shared understanding, language, and practical habits over time. Workshops are typically one-off or short-series sessions focused on a specific challenge — such as communication, business development, or navigating change. Both are customised to your team's needs.

LEGO® Serious Play® is a research-backed facilitation methodology that uses hands-on building to unlock thinking that conversation alone misses. It's particularly effective for strategy alignment, team dynamics, and complex problem-solving. The result? Faster alignment, sharper strategy, and teams that actually understand each other.

We work with you to define clear success metrics at the outset — whether that's engagement scores, retention rates, leadership capability assessments, or specific business outcomes. Ellen provides structured feedback and reporting throughout the engagement so you can track progress and demonstrate ROI.

Wayfinder is Ellen's flagship corporate program for organisations navigating major change — restructures, mergers, acquisitions, cost-cutting, or strategy shifts. It's designed for CEOs, Chief People Officers, COOs, and HR leaders who need to keep their best people, reduce friction, and minimise psychosocial and legal risk during periods of significant change.

Wayfinder combines executive strategy sessions, employee pathway design, digital programs (off-the-shelf or customised to your brand), live group sessions, anonymous Q&A and sentiment reporting, and customised communication materials. There are three tiers — Essentials, Standard, and Embedded — depending on the depth of support your organisation needs.

Wayfinder is a custom engagement starting at $10,000, depending on the scale and complexity of your situation. We'll scope the engagement together to ensure it fits your needs and budget. Book a call to discuss.

Internal teams are often too close to the situation — and too affected by it — to provide the objective, trusted support that employees and leaders need during major change. An external partner like Ellen brings fresh perspective, specialist expertise, and a safe space for honest conversations. It also reduces the psychosocial risk to your organisation by ensuring people feel genuinely supported.

The easiest way is to book a free 15-minute call with Ellen to discuss your situation and objectives. Alternatively, submit an enquiry and we'll be in touch within 24 hours on business days.
