About Nikki
Kia ora, I’m Nikki.
I am an executive leadership coach and facilitator with well over 20 years’ executive leadership experience. Having held a number of senior roles in the medical, educational and sales fields, I work with executives, middle managers and their teams in a wide variety of industries, from small businesses to large organisations, government departments and large educational organisations.
My why is “Making a Difference to People Who Make a Difference”. As an experienced coach and facilitator, I focus on growing leadership skills and understanding in both leaders and teams, helping clients realise their potential, both personally and professionally. With the ability to connect with a wide spectrum of leaders, I have contributed to countless success stories of executives and companies.
As a qualified Executive Leadership Coach and Team Coach, I am experienced in creating not only high-performing leaders, but high-performing teams who make a difference to those they impact. I work with senior leaders in diverse industries, such as finance, real estate, education, medical, construction, recruitment, multinationals and not-for-profits, as well as public sector organisations like government departments, health and police. I also serve as a coach and mentor with the Institute for Strategic Leadership and Co-active Education, and am a Member of the Institute of Directors.
I specialise in coaching current and emerging leaders for success in strategic and leadership roles, helping both leaders and teams achieve results through coaching, support and accountability.

Nicola, CEO“Nikki expertly guides you to acknowledge your strengths and identify the type of leader you want to be. Her fluid approach to coaching gave me a safe space to ask for advice, and gave me the confidence to find resolutions formed around my personal values.”
