Sally has an engaging, human style. She brings a compelling combination of insight, rigour and practical success having led transformation projects that have saved organisations millions and made an astonishing impact on employee engagement, staff turnover, sales and customer service.

Sally is one of the leaders of the global strengths revolution that’s transforming both the cultures of organisations and people’s lives.
Her stories of the impact the approach has had in the likes of EY, the NHS and Starbucks surprises, inspires and galvanises audiences. Is it really possible that you can save millions of pounds in just a few months? And can your people (at every level) become greater at what they do and get happier in the process? Sally says yes, and, in her talks, she reveals exactly how and why. She was a director at The Economist before setting up her strengths consultancy, Engaging Minds.
As founder of Engaging Minds she has introduced strengths approaches to many well known organisations. From helping Saga to prepare for flotation on the UK stock market to removing risk from senior nurses being appointed into the wrong job, the work Engaging Minds is fascinating and leads to real change.
Some of the clients that Sally has worked with include Credit Agricole, EY, JPMorgan, PHS Group, Sodexo Justice Services, Roffey Park, Southampton Business School, Starbucks and VW.
