About Emma.

Leadership and an 

obsession with productivity.

Helping leaders and organisations grow with clarity, confidence and purpose.

I founded Mindsetup to help business leaders navigate growth with greater clarity, stronger leadership and practical commercial thinking. For more than 15 years, I’ve worked across multiple sectors, supporting everyone from owner-managed businesses and ambitious SMEs to FTSE 100 companies, Fortune 500 organisations, charities and the public sector. My experience with KPMG, WSP and within the creative and digital industries has given me a broad commercial perspective and a deep understanding of the challenges leaders face as organisations evolve.

Today, I work as a Leadership Advisor, Business Consultant and Executive Coach, helping founders, leadership teams and organisations strengthen leadership capability, develop effective business strategy and make confident decisions that support sustainable growth. My work spans Leadership Advisory, Leadership Development, Executive Coaching, Strategic Workshops, Organisational Development and business planning, with every engagement tailored to the people, goals and challenges of the organisation. I believe successful businesses are built by confident leaders, aligned teams and clear direction. That’s why my approach combines strategic thinking with practical action, helping organisations build leadership capability, improve organisational performance and create lasting impact.

Above all, I’m passionate about helping people realise their potential. Because when leaders grow with clarity and confidence, organisations are better equipped to adapt, perform and thrive.

How I can help you.

My services are designed to help you maximise the efficiency and efficacy of your business processes. Learn more below.

Corporate consulting.

Bringing clarity to complex decisions. I work with founders, senior leaders and leadership teams to create the clarity, structure and confidence needed to navigate growth, strengthen decision-making and build lasting organisational capability.

Executive coaching.

Developing confident, capable leaders. Strong leadership isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about building the confidence, self-awareness and decision-making skills to lead with clarity, inspire others and create lasting impact.

Facilitation.

Creating space for better conversations. The best ideas emerge when people have the time, structure and confidence to think differently. I facilitate meaningful conversations that bring people together, build alignment and turn discussion into decisive action.

Small business programme.

Helping founders lead with greater clarity. Growing a business changes your role as a founder. I help you step back from the day-to-day, bring structure to your thinking and develop the confidence to lead your business through its next stage of growth.
