Hey There. I'm Adele Sinclair.
Looking back on my 20+ years of management, there's so much that university never prepares you for. I made a lot of mistakes along the way and fell into key blind spots that I can help you avoid. I felt stressed, frustrated, overworked and lacked confidence in myself.
Today, leveraging the latest leadership research and my decades of management experience, I help early-mid career professionals, managers, and leaders to develop their knowledge and skills - faster and easier than would be possible alone.
My programs are personalised to your needs. They encompass leadership, communication, interpersonal, and workload management skills. These skills enable you to lead with confidence, handle workplace challenges, reach your goals, and create a positive impact.
Skip the guesswork, struggles, and lost time from figuring it out for yourself.
Let's make it happen for you!
Awesome Reviews. Let Yours Be Next.
"Adele, I don’t have the words to express how important you have been in my life over the past year.
I would not be where I am today without your empathy, guidance, support, understanding and just all around positive presence."

"I now have the confidence to say no and speak up at work and at home so that I’m not always sacrificing what’s important to me.
I’ve learnt a lot about myself and why I do things a certain way. I have long term goals for my future, I am in control of my life, and I feel fantastic now that my life has purpose & direction again!”

A month ago, I jumped at the chance to act in a role to cover leave period for another area within the Department. I have now been in this role for 3 weeks and have had 2 job offers that really appeal to me. My biggest issue now is which one to take.
I would like to give you some of the credit for clearing some of my negativity and inspiring me to act for me.

EDUCATION
Management & Leadership can be hard
When your self-confidence as a manager or leader is low, several bad things can happen...
- You don't speak up, speak out, call out issues, or initiate change.
- As a result, your effectiveness becomes lower than it could be.
- You then misdiagnose the problem as you “not being good enough”.
These problems can lead to you uncertainty, confusion, hesitating, holding back, and investing time and resources in unhelpful habits to try to feel better.
And they, in turn, can make you feel frustrated and unfulfilled.
I've been there. And I can tell you, it doesn't have to be this way.
"I have an improved overall understanding of tools to use for all situations. I'd recommend it to all supervisors."
ooo
"I now have lots of strategies and techniques I can use. I'd recommend it to all managers, leaders, anyone who supervises staff. An excellent program."
"I learned that we are in control of how we impact other people. I have an improved awareness of the impact of my mood."
ooo
"I'd recommend it because it's comprehensive, approachable, relevant to our daily lives, practical and hands-on, and gives great theoretical background information."
"Very well structured with good contextualisation. This is excellent and should be mandatory for all managers."
ooo
"This has been really good for me. It’s made me reflect, dispel the irrelevant stuff, and put things into reality. Knowing all this stuff now, I’ll be able to actually change my work life."

What could you achieve with a mentor by your side?
It wasn't always like this...
In 2003, I took on a senior leadership role that involved constant change and pressure. When the organisation then went through a restructure, we had to do even more but with fewer resources. I began burning out. So did my team.
Leading a team is more than just delegating tasks and making decisions. It’s about understanding yourself and the individuals who make up the team, leveraging everyone’s strengths, and addressing their struggles (including yours).
If I had the knowledge and skills to navigate the balance between team productivity and personal wellbeing, I could have looked after myself and my team better. I’ve learned a lot since then.
