Helen is the founder of The Tall Wall and is a sought-after executive coach who works with leaders and high potential individuals, typically within professional services firms. Helen works best with driven individuals who are committed to developing their self-awareness and open to new and sometimes creative ways of thinking about themselves and their professional situation.
Naturally inclined to the positive in people, Helen understands that the individual almost always knows the 'answer'– with careful listening and questioning in a safe and supportive environment they will find it. A straight-talking pragmatist at heart, Helen also believes that the ability to challenge and occasionally offer suggestions makes the coaching more effective and the next steps more practical.
Above all, Helen cares deeply about her clients and goes above and beyond to help them achieve the change they desire.
Helen’s coaching career began in the 'Big Four', focusing on Partners and Directors, maternity leavers/returners and talented people leaders. Before coaching, Helen enjoyed more than fifteen years’ experience in financial services, focusing on large scale M&A transactions and corporate strategy, both in the UK and globally. Her career pre-coaching has ensured Helen never underestimates the pressures and reality of high performing cultures.
