Leadership Function Pro was founded with a simple but ambitious conviction: that the quality of leadership inside an organisation is the single greatest predictor of its long-term success. Our founder, after spending over fifteen years in senior roles within multinational corporations, recognised a persistent gap between what organisations said about leadership and what they actually invested in developing it.
That gap became the catalyst for our consultancy. We set out to create a practice that combined rigorous research with practical, real-world application — one that would treat leadership development not as a programme to complete but as a continuous discipline to embed in the fabric of an organisation.
Today, we work with organisations ranging from high-growth start-ups to established FTSE-listed enterprises. Our client base spans healthcare, financial services, technology, retail, and the public sector. What unites them is a shared belief that investing in leaders at every level pays dividends far beyond the boardroom.
Our headquarters are at 1 Meadow Lane, Upton Waelchi Cross, MT9 9XE, England, United Kingdom, but our work takes us wherever our clients need us — from London to Leeds, Manchester to Edinburgh, and increasingly across Europe and beyond.
Our mission is to help organisations develop leaders who think clearly, act courageously, and inspire the people around them to do their finest work. Everything we do is guided by five core values that shape how we engage with clients, colleagues, and the wider community.
We ground every recommendation in peer-reviewed research, validated assessment tools, and measurable data. Gut feeling has its place, but we believe leaders deserve better than guesswork when making decisions that affect hundreds or thousands of people. Our diagnostic frameworks are built on decades of organisational psychology research and are continuously updated as new evidence emerges.
Real progress requires honest dialogue. We commit to telling our clients what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear. Our consultants are trained to navigate difficult conversations with empathy and directness, creating the psychological safety that allows leaders to confront uncomfortable truths and emerge stronger for it.
We design every engagement for sustainability. Rather than delivering a workshop and walking away, we build capability that endures long after our formal involvement ends. This means transferring skills to internal teams, embedding new habits into daily routines, and creating feedback loops that keep development on track over months and years.
Diverse leadership teams make better decisions. We actively integrate inclusion into every aspect of our work, from the assessment criteria we use to the facilitation techniques we employ. We challenge our clients — and ourselves — to examine unconscious biases and build leadership cultures where every voice is heard and valued.
Our goal is to make ourselves unnecessary. We work alongside our clients as partners, co-creating solutions rather than imposing them. We share our methodologies openly, coach internal practitioners, and celebrate the moment when an organisation can sustain its own leadership development without our involvement.
Our consultants bring a diverse blend of corporate leadership experience, academic expertise, and coaching credentials. Every member of our team holds at least one internationally recognised coaching qualification and has a minimum of ten years of practical leadership experience.
Catherine holds a doctorate in organisational behaviour from the University of Bath and spent fifteen years in executive roles at two FTSE 100 companies before founding Leadership Function Pro. She specialises in board effectiveness, executive transition, and leadership culture transformation. Her research on psychological safety in senior teams has been published in several leading management journals.
Marcus brings over twenty years of experience spanning the financial services and technology sectors. Before joining our team, he served as chief people officer at a rapidly scaling fintech company, where he built a leadership development function from the ground up. He is a certified executive coach with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council and holds an MBA from Cranfield School of Management.
Priya is an occupational psychologist with deep expertise in psychometric assessment and leadership analytics. She designs and delivers our diagnostic tools, translating complex data into clear, actionable insights that clients can use immediately. Before joining Leadership Function Pro, she spent eight years at a global assessment consultancy, working with clients across healthcare, energy, and professional services.
Every engagement begins with a no-obligation conversation. We will listen to your challenges, share relevant case examples, and outline how our approach could work for your organisation. There is no pressure and no hard sell — just an honest exchange between professionals who care about great leadership.
