Services
Fuel growth, one insightful question at a time.

Interview prep & personalized 1-on-1 coaching
Having interviewed 100s of people throughout my career I will prepare you for interviews by providing a set of competencies from which tailor made questions can be developed which will form the basis of the interview on offer. Clients will receive 1: 1 preparation as you work through the questions and come up with different perspectives and examples borne from your experience.
Leadership coaching
The overarching aim of leadership coaching is the development of authentic leadership, to be your authentic self. It is concerned with enabling you to change.
It assists you as a manager with that essential space to reflect. This reflection allows managers to understand themselves more fully, to understand what motivates them, to confront their fears and channel their creativity towards their organisational goals.

I will work with you by sharing my knowledge and years of experience working in senior level leadership roles within CHI. I will direct and lead you to navigate difficult and challenging situations and guide you towards solution based outcomes.
Corporate advisory
Is your organisation in need of guidance?
Rest assured I can bring all my years of corporate governance and HR knowledge to guide your organisation when needed.
EXPERIENCE
Over 30 years experience in senior leadership
With over 30 years experience at senior level in the Health Services both as Director of Human Resources and Chief Executive Officer at Children’s University Hospital Temple Street
Bringing Temple street to top 50 great places to work
As human resource director I played a vital role in helping Temple Street Children’s Hospital to place in the top 10 ‘Great Places to Work’
A significant achievement for any corporation, but even more so for Temple Street as the only publicly funded hospital to do so. We achieved this for 5 years running and for a total of 6 years during my tenure.
Leading Temple street as CEO
As CEO I led Temple Street through the covid pandemic.
An extreme challenge but one in which the collective team prevailed in meeting our number 1 goal – keeping our patients & staff safe.

Self belief and success
Mona brings her vast expertise in Human Resources as well as years of experience as hospital CEO to her current practice.
There is hardly an interview question that she hasn’t heard before and having delivered health care services she knows what knowledge and skills will be valued.
Mona worked with me to review my career crafting responses that were clear, concise and confident. Working with Mona gave me belief not only in my ability to do the interview but also to do the job. Without doubt this was a large part of my success. Thanks again Mona.

Clarity and confidence
I’ve been fortunate enough to have Mona as a coach, and I cant speak highly enough about how much she helped me over the time we worked together.
I came to coaching at a time in my professional life when my confidence was low and I lacked clarity & direction. With encouragement and compassionate inquiry, I felt supported and championed by Mona. She is a gifted coach with a wealth of experience, tools, and creative suggestions. She helped me to get unstuck, and believed in me at a time when I had stopped believing in myself.
With that gift of self belief and the work we did together, I have seen a difference in how I show up in the world. I highly recommend and am appreciative of this invaluable opportunity with Mona.
