Eliminating Avoidable Friction Making Work Easier

Most workplace friction is avoidable.
It thrives where self-awareness and curiosity are missing.

I help organisations eliminate the friction their people don’t realise they’re creating, by replacing assumption with curiosity. Helping teams work together with greater trust, clarity, and ease.

I’ve spent more than 25 years helping leaders and teams understand themselves and each other more clearly.

My background spans law, elite sport, rural life, and decades working inside real organisations with real humans under real pressure.

Today, I work with organisations across New Zealand and beyond through keynotes, strategic resolution work, mentoring, and Dotsâ„¢ Communication.

Because when people understand themselves and each other, work becomes easier, faster, and far more effective.

Communication challenges don’t all need the same response.

Sometimes teams need a shared shift in perspective. Sometimes they need space to work things through.
Sometimes they need support to repair what’s broken. Amy works with leaders and teams across all of these moments.
Helping reduce miscommunication, build understanding, and move forward together.

Some of the organisations Amy has had the pleasure of working with

  • "Amy has been working with our organisation for the past two years. She assists us with cultural change, leadership mentoring, recruitment and staff professional and personal development. Amy has taken the time to understand our services, goals and aspirations and supports us in fulfilling them. She is also very generous with her NGO rates. I highly recommend her."

    CEO - Corstorphine Community Baptist Trust

  • Her quest for making communication effective is evident in not only what she does, but most importantly in HOW she does it: her energy, relatedness, knowledge and genuine passion are pure driving forces
