Meet Margaret

My mission is helping organisations and individuals to communicate impactfully with the people who matter to them. This is what I’ve done for over 25 years.

I specialise in working with professional services firms and professional services teams within organisations so they can overcome their communication challenges:

  • Technical content – delivering complex, abstract information with nuance so clients and leaders can see both the big picture and the key details
  • Non-expert audiences – flexing to people who don’t understand all the technicalities and want complicated things made simple
  • Big objectives – presenting findings, making recommendations and pitching ideas effectively so clients and senior leaders can make good decisions
  • High stakes – communicating carefully to meet their organisation’s compliance, budgetary, operational and reputational requirements
  • Fast-paced work – producing communications quickly with minimal re-work by senior team members

I have considerable experience with large, complex, high-stakes communications including reports, strategies, investment papers, policy papers, client communications, copywriting and presentations.

If your team are using AI, such as Copilot or ChatGPT, we can incorporate these tools into your training, coaching or consulting project. We’ll focus on making the most of their expertise, enhancing their creativity and increasing their efficiency by combining best-practice traditional techniques with AI tools.

Business communications training and coaching

As a trainer and coach, I share the techniques, tools and tricks-of-the-trade that professional writers and presenters use.

My participants and coachees apply their new techniques to their own work in customised sessions so they can see the difference for themselves.

I support them with encouragement and actionable feedback so they build their confidence as well as their skills.

My content is engaging, interactive and practical. This way, participants and coachees enjoy their learning on the day and can implement it in their work immediately.

Business communications consulting

As a consultant, I help organisations tackle the fundamental problems that are holding them back.

I collaborate closely with my clients to create common standards, processes and resources that are designed for their specific needs. Then, their teams have the tools they need to produce better communications more quickly and easily.

Long-term results for clients

My clients regularly report that they’ve significantly improved their communications and communication processes after working with me.
