KPMG – Building a Consistent Leadership Standard Across Complex Organisations

At KPMG, I partnered with senior stakeholders to design and deliver a comprehensive Leadership Academy for more than 400 senior leaders and line managers. The objective was to build a consistent, future-ready leadership capability across a multi-layered organisation with diverse cultures and operating models.

The programme combined targeted workshops, one-to-one coaching, and a structured capability framework that embedded clear leadership expectations and behavioural standards. It helped participants strengthen self-awareness, communication agility, and commercial influence – enabling technically strong managers to transition into confident, strategic leaders.

The initiative became a model for scalable leadership development within professional services, improving engagement, alignment, and performance outcomes.

This work exemplifies my approach today: combining evidence-based coaching with tailored leadership development to create leaders who think strategically and lead with confidence.
