Most businesses don’t actually have a people problem. They have a performance block - a gap between what they expect and what their systems, culture, and leadership currently make possible.
That’s where Talent Alchemy comes in.
I work alongside you - quietly, strategically, and personally - to uncover what’s really happening beneath the surface. Then I fix it.
No jargon. No generic templates. Just honest diagnosis, bespoke strategy, and the tools and training that make the change last.
A hands-on, done-with-you transformation partnership for leaders in creative, events, and hospitality businesses who want to:
• Attract better talent, faster - without raising costs.
• Build stronger, more accountable teams.
• Develop confident, emotionally intelligent managers.
• Create a culture that performs brilliantly - and stays.
Each engagement is fully tailored, but typically follows my Talent Alchemy Blueprint - a structured, six-week sprint that combines consultancy, coaching, and implementation support to build your reliable talent engine.
I start by listening. Through deep-dive conversations, data analysis, and observation, we uncover where performance is leaking - from recruitment to leadership behaviour to culture alignment. You’ll receive a Talent Intelligence Report showing exactly what’s working, what’s not, and where the quick wins lie.
ogether, we craft a talent strategy that fits your commercial goals and culture. This includes outcome-based job specs, an employer brand narrative, and practical frameworks for accountability, feedback, and growth.
I do the hard work behind the scenes - creating your bespoke tools, systems, and templates, training your leaders, and helping embed the new habits that sustain performance. You’ll have ongoing access to me as we test, refine, and make sure it sticks.
Every programme is bespoke, but typical deliverables include:
• Talent Intelligence Report — a clear, evidence-based view of your current people landscape.
• AI Recruitment Toolkit — modernised job specs, emotionally intelligent adverts, and AI-powered templates that attract the right people.
• Culture Pulse Survey — honest, actionable insights into how your team really feels.
• Leadership Framework + Train-the-Trainer Toolkit — simple, replicable ways to develop and align managers.
• People Performance Plan — a measurable structure linking accountability to outcomes.
• ROI Report & Sustainability Roadmap — your proof of impact, showing the financial and cultural gains.
Optional extras:
• Employer Brand Playbook · Onboarding Accelerator · Face-to-Face Leadership Coaching
• Shorter hiring times and higher-quality applicants.
• Reduced turnover and absenteeism.
• Clearer role accountability and measurable performance.
• Managers who coach, not control.
• Teams that feel motivated, trusted, and aligned.
And the deeper result: a business that finally feels calm, capable, and cohesive - where people know what’s expected, and leaders can actually lead.
You’re a leader in a creative, events, or hospitality business, and you:
• Are constantly firefighting people issues.
• Struggle to attract or retain the right talent.
• Want systems that free you up, not weigh you down.
• Need performance and accountability without micromanagement.
• Operate on tight margins and can’t afford trial-and-error.
This programme is for you if you want transformation that’s both human and commercial.
Most consultants give you a report and disappear. I build the solutions with you - and make sure they work.
I bring 25+ years of leadership experience in fast-moving creative and hospitality environments, backed by an MBA, NLP mastery, and a deep understanding of behavioural change. That means I see your business from every angle - commercial, cultural, and emotional - and translate insight into systems that last.
