I’m Mel Kettle,
a Leadership Communication Specialist.

The norms for working together have rapidly changed over the past few years, and we’re still finding our feet when it comes to creating the kind of interaction, connection and engagement with our people that we need for our organisation to perform at its best. Hybrid work has impacted our teams and organisational culture, and we feel the constant pressure to do more with less. Being a leader at a time of rapid change is always hard - stress, overwhelm, and exhaustion is common as we seek to inspire staff that are struggling with focus, productivity and creativity.

Mel works at the intersection of communication and leadership to help leaders, teams and organisations create real connection and sustained engagement. She helps CEOs, leaders, and people managers lead themselves, lead their teams and lead culture so that everyone can thrive, align and belong.
