I blog, randomly about the things I observe and the things I learn.
There is a blog around my new learning adventure on my yacht, called Wright Away, or find a category and explore.

From Performance to Transformation (Coaching & Change that Lasts)
One of the topics this year is how we generate a culture change that is long lasting and not just sitting in the external domain of process and skills. Over the 2 years that I have been involved in the culture shift I have noticed that without changing mindsets and behaviours, nothing really changes – we make the same choices, take the same action only now in a new Lean or Agile way. Which got me thinking about coaching and the different types of coaching. What I started to realise is where the focus is seems to matter. Performance coaching seems [...]
When Deep Purple writes a Concerto
Not your usual combination – orchestral music combined with rock. I am sure there are some die hard musico’s of both persuasions who shudder at the thought – where is the purity As I listened to the first of the concerto’s I started to wonder, how would you do it so that it is seemless ? How many ‘rules would have to be broken to bring an electric guitar into an orchestra ? Or a section of violins (with obo and brass) into a rock band ? The idea fascinates me and listening to the end results leaves me inspired [...]

What if Thoughts were Choices too ?
Yes, thoughts just appear – but what if that sudden, automatic appearance is just a habit ? Something you created without knowing because you never knew you had a choice ? What if you can choose thoughts ? What if all that took is an awareness that what you think [...]

Wanna Give Up ? All Hope Gone ?
Some days hope is hard to find. Yes! I am living one of those days. I don’t enjoy this part of the process and sometimes I wonder if it really is worth even bothering to dream of something different. It is another morning that will become another day that will [...]
It Always Seems Impossible……
Until its done – Nelson Mandela (Long Walk to Freedom). Then it is so obvious everyone wonders why it took so long to smash! No-one could reach the top of Everest, until it was done. Now there are traffic jams and queues of climbers waiting to get there and back. [...]
Tips and Tricks to Living with Dare – Mastering Emotions
What if you could choose how you feel ? I love this question, because it took me so long to realise that maybe, just maybe I could. And in that maybe I suddenly glimpsed a freedom I didn’t know was possible. I have been fighting the stereotype of woman as [...]
