Lucy Windsor
I am an executive coach and business consultant specialising in inter-organisation communication.
I started my career in the PC business - because I knew PCs were going to change the way business is done.
Then moved to an internet practice, when the internet was in its infancy. I was commercial manager for the very first website in the UK to accept online payments - I negotiated with the hosting and merchant service suppliers and the banks.
Now we are on the cusp of the next huge shift in how we do business and this time it is not technology, it is our greatest resource, people, that will change the way business is done in the next decade.
Built a unique knowledge base around communication, leadership and engagement over my 15 years, working with companies large and small across every sector. I am focused, results driven and passionate about communication.
One of the few certified Strategic Intervention coaches in the UK, trained by Cloe Madanes, Magali and Mark Peysha at the Center for Strategic Intervention. I also hold accredited diplomas in Business Performance and Life Coaching with Newcastle College.
Author of 'People Aren't Widgets' understanding the role of values, culture, employee engagement and organisational flow.
``People Aren't Widgets is one of those books that you will delve into time and time again throughout your career. It is more than an outstanding business book - it is truly inspirational.`` - Credit Control Journal and Asset and Risk Review.
