Finding Inspiration in Every Turn

At Potential Unlocked, we guide individuals and teams through transformative journeys.
Inspired by the quiet precision of canal locks and the strength of high-functioning teams, we help you rise to your next level of performance.

Our mission is to Unlock Potential – in individuals, in teams, and in strategic decision-making.

Our Story

University friends from a previous century our career paths diverged and took us to a variety of different worlds. But at our core we both retained a fascination with individual performance and team dynamics.

Potential Unlocked is our vehicle for bringing our diverse experiences together and integrating them to bring a new model to the coaching paradigm.

During a successful career in the Hydrocarbon Exploration business, I discovered I had a passion for getting the most out of diverse teams. Enabling individuals to contribute more than they knew they could, and creating an environment where contrasting personalities became trusted colleagues.

I have had exposure to strategic planning at corporate board level and been a representative at national board level for a multi-national organisation.

I have developed an incredibly rewarding second career as Guide, Lecturer, Mentor, Coach, Trainer and Leader in Expedition Cruising. I have taken guests to regions as diverse as Antarctica, New Guinea, Svalbard, Greenland, Pitcairn and South Georgia. Leading teams and delivering life-changing experiences
