CONSCIOUS LEADERS

COACHING. CONSULTING. DEVELOPING

"Organisations are rich academies where we learn all the skills and capabilities we need to be powerful leaders and good human beings. However, the missing link is often a clear understanding of our impact. Being a conscious leader is about being clear on where you stand so that you can lead more impactfully and empower your teams to unleash their potential."

WORK IS PERSONAL

My name is Caroline Hughes

By the time we retire, we will have devoted nearly 30 years of our lives to work. When that work no longer inspires us, it becomes more than just a job—it becomes a call for change.

I’m a been there done that leader. I’ve led teams across financial services, the public sector, and most recently was the Global Director of Leadership Development at CRH PLC, a Fortune 500 company with 78,500 employees. I’ve seen first hand what it takes to have a successful career and build high performing teams. I've also experienced the high price. 

But more than that, I’ve discovered that true leadership isn’t measured solely by what you do—it’s defined by who you are and the impact you create.
