WORK HISTORY
Business Mentor @Inspiring Rare Birds
Sydney, AU
I was lucky enough to sit on the Board of the Entrepreneurs Organisation in Sydney with the fabulous @JoBurston. When she asked if I’d like to be a mentor in her newly created program (Inspiring Rare Birds) I jumped at the chance. I have now mentored 8+ business men and women, helping them to grow their business and manage the emotional & financial rollercoasters of being an entrepreneur. The reality is always harder than anyone ever realises, but you\'re never alone with the highs, lows and doubting yourself. As an experienced Coach and Mentor, as well as having run my own business for 17 years, I’ve seen it all, made my own stuff ups, wins and have much to share, challenge and to inspire confidence. Please reach out if you need a bit of tough love coaching with a smile!

ABOUT LEONA WATSON
Fast-tracking Leadership Clarity & Growth / Staff Connection / Culture Having led over conversations around leadership and how to improve team engagement and connection, it all boils down to the same five problems. If you can get the first two right, the rest take care of themselves. Yet over 20 years I keep hearing the same issues. What are we choosing not to learn? Leaders live with the constant worry and distraction of staff leaving, and then the cost and time of recruiting and onboarding. When your HR Team is growing faster than your Sales Team, you know you’re in trouble! With a background in corporates inc. Microsoft & Virgin, I launched Cheeky Food Events (now sold), overseeing 2,500 Team Building, L&D and Leadership events. Over 17 years, I helped colleagues to connect on a team and company level.and boy did I see a lot! The best and the worst of leadership, culture and (often un-inspiring) company values. Team Building Day - is EVERY DAY! Uplevelling as a Leader should never end. Finding balance in this crazy, fast-world is a constant. I’ll share the easy, daily, low or no cost actions, that build the leaders and teams everyone wants to join. The ones known for always innovating, laughing and getting ‘stuff’ done. Its rewarding to make a tangible difference to a Team or Leader’s Heart, Grit & Resilience. The kind that doesn’t require constant (and exhausting) motivation and micro-managing. I share the many tough love-lessons and hilarious stories from over the years inc my extensive Neuroscience training, to help fast track your own growth. Plus, the unexpected insights from the parallels of life and business, my adventure travel, triathlon races and working with fabulous chefs! Whether Speaking or Coaching on stage, in the bush or in a boardroom, I promise to bring honesty, grit and a laugh. And results! Keynotes, 1-1 coaching or workshops.
