‘Anne has been a convenor, coraller and critical friend of our stewardship group for health equality for the last two years. Always treading the line beautifully between systemic and systematic action, Anne’s consistent and persistent skill has helped us crystallise our theory of change and shared values, to embody them, and to capture our impact and learning. Anne has a knack for knowing when to step in and when to step back so it feels like we have created our identity and purpose ourselves, even though we could not have done it on our own! For other people looking to work with Anne I would best describe this as group coaching in systems leadership with all its mess and complexity. On a personal level Anne is purposeful, practical, insightful and warm, and a pleasure to collaborate with on either a personal or group/organisational level.’
