scottish ballet

As Scotland’s national dance company, our mission is to inspire on stage and beyond. In 2019 the company celebrated 50 years of a creative vision crafted by Scotland. Based in Glasgow, the company performs regularly all over Scotland – from our biggest cities to our most remote communities, and increasingly throughout the UK and internationally – promoting Scotland’s pioneering spirit far and wide. Our artistic vision: bold, adventurous performances rooted in strong classical technique. It’s how we started and it’s how we’ll grow. Our desire to explore new styles and push creativity is as alive as ever – we’ll continue to work with ground-breaking choreographers such as Ivgi & Greben, Bryan Arias, David Dawson and Crystal Pite. Our creative vision goes beyond choreography. From digital platforms to novel ideas that engage our audiences, we’re always seeking new ways to bring the power of dance to as many people as possible. We are here to present ballet at its best. We are passionate about live music and tour with an orchestra whenever we can. We present classics in new ways and we work with the finest dance makers. Throughout it all, we strive for excellence. We are dedicated to supporting the arts and communities in Scotland. Scottish Ballet nurtures the talent of tomorrow; supporting dancers, choreographers and a wide range of artists. Our goal: to inspire excellence and creativity in everyone and bring dance to people we haven’t reached before. We want to bring the joy and benefits of dance to everyone regardless of age, ability and background. Our engagement programme promotes confidence, fosters well-being and encourages creativity in all by delivering inspirational programmes tailored to the needs of each group.

I’ve made a few fresh starts, but as a business coach, enabling others who are over 50 to make their best new start is the most rewarding. Being middle-aged has so many advantages too. We know who we are, more or less. We have bags of experience. We know what we want, or at least a strong sense of what we don’t. We know what our values and passions are and we crave a life filled with meaning and purpose. That often means impacting the world more positively as well as personal success. This is where I can help because I’ve been there. As a business coach I get to use all my knowledge and experience gained over 30 years in various industries, start-ups as well as scaleups, agencies as well as manufacturing. I’ve experienced successes and failures and am driven to help people avoid the same mistakes I made and to help them achieve work or a business filled with an expression of who they are and what they want to offer the world. My coaching sweet spot is founders who know their subject matter but are less sure of how to achieve sufficiency, sustainability or growth. Starting a business can feel like it’s all about survival, but it is possible to grow and be successful without losing yourself. I can help you gain the freedom to enjoy life whilst increasing revenue and profit growth. I’m naturally person-centred, playful and challenging in my approach. I’m also comfortable with uncertainty when you might be struggling to stick with it. I carry with me practical experience of many hundreds of businesses and their markets and different business and growth models. Together we can create clarity to focus on your customers, whatever the market, whatever the product or service. To enable you to move your life and business life towards your passion; for the environment, social equity or humanity, towards you.
