“I have been an Advisor with Ian and other members of the team since near the time the organisation was established. For a period of this time, I was also a trustee and Co-Chair on the board. From my first knowing of Ian, I can say that he listens, makes connections with disjointed ideas, and creates new ideas and visions that he then translates into reality; including, in collaboration with others, the creation of Caplor Horizons and more recently The Commitment; also, the generation of different workstreams and partnerships. Ian’s core value of continuous learning and justice - including social justice - makes him a thought leader of considerable influence with those he interacts with. His ability to make simplify complexity in different ways (e.g., summarising strategy) has influenced me greatly in my own work. Ian is impressive in gathering and motivating people towards a common aim and mobilising them to give their best. He values and shows gratitude for work others contribute and is selfless in his work and his approach to working with others. I have gained much from Ian and from becoming part of the organisation in a way I would never thought possible. He has changed my life by offering me opportunities and learning that has helped me grow and use my skills differently. I have faith that Ian will always make a difference to the lives of others and do so in a sensitive and caring way.”
About
I’m one of three Co-Directors of Caplor Horizons. My fellow Co-Directors are Rosie Bishop and Lorna Pearcey.
I have a strong track-record in leading the growth of not-for-profit organisations for over 30 years.
Alongside applying my experience and skills in leadership, team-working, organisational culture, strategy, structure and change, I greatly enjoy learning.
Caplor Horizons was established in April 2014. I’m involved with the design and delivery of activities. I love co-facilitating and coaching. I believe it’s vital to enable organisations to become more effective in bringing about transformational change.
As a non-executive Director of Haygrove, I’ve enjoyed contributing towards its growth since it was founded. Haygrove is a pioneering international horticultural business.
In all my roles, I’ve been driven to tackle injustice and I do all I can to help inspire and enable others to achieve their potential.
