Kate

Founder & Director

My passion for launching NewlandRock stems from what is important to me – NewlandRock brings me closer to my clients. To make a difference in the effectiveness of leaders, their impact and overall success.

What’s unique to the NewlandRock model is the holistic approach my solutions offer. An immersive experience, combining my leadership effectiveness expertise, coaching skills with wellbeing and an inside out, mental fitness focus. Meaning, NewlandRock solutions are truly transformative.

Before launching NewlandRock, I spent 20 years working with businesses advising on talent-centric strategies, leadership effectiveness and organisational development. This career also took me overseas, working and living internationally – Asia, Australia, Ireland & UK. Spending significant time within fast-growing markets and advising businesses who were accelerating through change.

One of the most enjoyable aspects of leading the NewlandRock strategy is the opportunity to work with likeminded, talented and passionate experts. Meet the experts working with me…

They each bring something different of value, knowledge that compliments organisational development and energy for what will work.
