To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
RALPH WALDO EMERSON
Hi, I’m Tania.
I'm an internationally accredited executive coach and strategic leadership advisor specialising in leadership capability, organisational performance and the dynamics that shape how people lead, influence and progress.
Through Powerhouse Consulting, we partner with financial services and other complex organisations to strengthen leadership effectiveness, strategic decision-making and organisational performance. Our work addresses challenges ranging from leadership readiness and succession to strategic influence, stakeholder relationships and the evolving demands of leadership.
I spent over 20 years navigating the pressure, pace and politics of high-stakes financial environments. That experience informs a methodology that combines leadership psychology, behavioural science and strategic performance with a practical understanding of how organisations operate.
Our work develops leaders who think strategically, exercise sound judgement, communicate with clarity and influence effectively across organisations. The aim is to strengthen performance, accelerate progression and build leadership cultures capable of navigating complexity and change.
Alongside broader leadership development, we partner with organisations to advance women into senior roles through sponsorship, leadership capability-building and organisational change. This work focuses on addressing progression barriers, strengthening succession pipelines and creating more equitable access to leadership opportunities.
We also work with ambitious professionals navigating demanding careers who want to strengthen their leadership impact, expand their influence and prepare for roles of greater responsibility.
I hold a Master's in Philanthropic Studies, which informs my understanding of power, equity and the systems that shape opportunity. This complements my commitment to developing effective leaders and helping organisations create environments where talent can progress and contribute at the highest levels.
