Her work experience at Shazam, Onfido and (more recently) bp Launchpad means that Ruth offers a unique perspective: Ruth can talk to leaders at startups as well as those at established companies with the equal impact and credibility. Ruth shares her insight and practical advice for delivering cultural change in demanding situations with extraordinary energy and enthusiasm - her natural charisma and warmth are obvious, even in virtual workshop settings.

Reflective, fresh, positive, fun and profound, are the keywords our community used to describe Ruth’s session. We truly appreciated many useful learnings on how to lead with empathy, and use empathy as a strategic advantage in our stakeholder management. Due to our complex environment with 26 stakeholders (brands) we benefited from Ruth’s reflections on balancing business needs with personal growth, while elevating a more communal way of working.

Ruth is a an absolute joy and pleasure to work with, she brings her unique experience and insights to help unlock the potential in people. As the Faculty Lead for our Elevate programme, Ruth has worked with the high potential leaders to equip them with the skills, tools and belief to go back into their teams and make a difference.
