Do you do I review Senior Leadership Job Applications?
Yes - I do! This is a service that I offer in The Confident Career Leader Programme. The job application is a test of a candidate's perseverance, writing and communication skills and can take 10+ days to complete and years to build the leadership skills. 🤩 You'll want to pull out all of the stops to ensure you get shortlisted.
Because I give premium support to my clients wanting reviews and because of the work involved in the review stage -The Confident Career Leader Programme is the ONLY place that I review Senior Leadership Job Applications.
Do you work with teachers applying for roles in Gaelscoileanna?
Yes, I have prepared many teachers for roles in the Irish setting by teaching them the necessary English skills. I teach in English because for these teachers, the challenge isn’t the Irish language. It’s the clarity underneath it. They look for clarity about how to say things, what the interview panel is looking for and how to approach things for their particular school setting. If the thinking is clear in English first, the translation becomes much easier and much stronger.
Do you do professional development talks for schools?
Yes, I have prepared in-depth talks on a number of topics that I see teachers need more guidance on including student voice, inclusion, school and teacher identity, coaching tools for educators, Strengths Development, SSE and Goal Setting, Developing Leadership Capacity and more!
Here is a sample of the CPD that I've undertaken in the Coaching and Mentoring area.Â

Do you offer workshops to teach job application skills?Â
While I see others run webinars, I see better results when I work in person or 1-1 with clients. The reason why is this: I see time and time again that when teachers prepare solo, they list experience, but they don’t shape it in a way that shows leadership, impact, or decision-making. If you're looking for information on job seeking at a low cost - I recommend The Teacher Promotion Club. Learn more here.Â
