 Training Particpant
Shelley had the ability to make me feel supported, valued, respected and listened to, while challenging my thinking and perspective on some core issues.

Coaching client
This was an amazing experience because I felt listened to and validated but at the same time challenged in areas that required some shifting in my thinking and changes to my attitude and behaviour.
Coaching Client

Hi, I'm Shelley,

The founder, and head Leadership Coach, of the Human Services Leadership Academy. Over the past 20+ years, I've experienced and observed the many challenges and triumphs that come with leadership.
Drawing from these experiences, and the lack of leadership training options tailored to our sector, I established this Academy with the aim of equipping leaders with the necessary tools and strategies to excel.
We stand by the belief that leadership is a learnable skill, a journey of continuous growth, self-reflection, and adaptation, particularly within the unique and challenging environment of Human Services.
