"An aligned leadership team isn't just the backbone of the organisation; it's the engine." Tina Cantrill
In today's fast-paced and competitive business environment, the alignment of your leadership team is not just a nice-to-have: It's a critical factor that can determine the success or failure of your organisation.
Organisations with aligned leadership are 2.2 times more likely to outperform their peers on key financial metrics such as revenue growth and profitability, and see a 25% higher employee engagement rate leading to increased productivity and reduced turnover.
An aligned leadership operates with a shared vision, clear priorities, lived values, and a united approach to achieving goals. This alignment not only drives better decision-making but also creates a powerful ripple effect throughout the entire organisation.
Aligned leadership teams create a culture of trust, transparency, and accountability, which enables them to navigate challenges more effectively and seize opportunities faster. This alignment fosters a cohesive environment where everyone is rowing in the same direction, ultimately driving sustainable success.

Read feedback from over 600 HR professionals who attended a workshop Tina led on organisational culture.
"We engaged Tina Cantrill to provide executive coaching for the leadership team of the Shared Services division at McKesson. Her work was nothing short of transformative.
From the outset, Tina understood our goals: To attain leadership team alignment behind our strategic vision, establish both individual and team presence within the wider organization, and elevate our leadership capabilities, influence, and impact. Her approach was systematic and tailored to our unique needs.
The team retreat facilitated by Tina was a pivotal moment. We established clear priorities and actionable steps to align our efforts with the strategic vision. Tina's skill in guiding these discussions ensured that all voices were heard and that we left with a cohesive plan.
The results of Tina's coaching were profound. Our leadership team is now more aligned, our strategic vision is clear and well-understood, and our individual and collective leadership capabilities have been significantly elevated. Tina's expertise and dedication have made a lasting impact on our team and our organization."

"We engaged Tina to help us define our Culture, an aspect we knew to be important to the building of a strong foundation for the company. What was blurry to us was the components that go into defining it, and its implementation from a practical standpoint.
Tina structured this exercise as a 3-day workshop where we worked together to refine our vision and mission, internalize our values and crystallize a set of guiding principles. In essence, we came back from the workshop armed with a set of tools that would help us bring clarity and direction in the organization.
I was very impressed by Tina's ability to weave together her wealth of knowledge in organizational behaviour, and her experience in the health care space to create a cohesive set of activities. Her energy is infectious, as is her curiosity. I would highly recommend Tina as an expert who helps solve organization challenges, particularly the seemingly 'soft' and 'intangible' kinds. She made me realize that aspects like Culture, People, Leadership and Values are anything but 'soft' - they bear the weight of the organization and have clear, measurable benefits."

"I had the pleasure of working with Tina recently when we brought her on to lead a 3-day culture and leadership training workshop for our team at CTC, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table and took the time to understand our team's specific needs and tailor the workshop accordingly. Throughout the three days, Tina’s interactive and dynamic approach to learning ensured that everyone was fully involved and invested in the process. Our team left the workshop feeling inspired and motivated to implement positive change.
Tina's personable nature and genuine interest in helping others succeed truly set her apart. I look forward to the opportunity to work with Tina again in the future!"
Aarti Mistry
Manager, People & Culture
"Tina’s passion for organizational culture, leadership and coaching is truly inspiring. Her wealth of corporate and commercial knowledge is impressive and invaluable. As I navigate my way through the new role, I was hoping to gather not only insights but also practical resources I could use. Tina absolutely exceeded my expectations. She generously shared a plethora of resources, including some from her personal collection. Each time I have interacted with Tina, she has provided me with something valuable to use and explore. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of working more closely with Tina in the future. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking expertise in organizational culture, leadership, and coaching. Tina is wonderful and I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from her."

"Ms. Cantrill has demonstrated herself to be extremely competent and skilled at analyzing and identifying an organizations culture and how it manifests itself in its program management and delivery. Ms. Cantrill is thorough and methodical in her approach and her professional demeanor enables her to engage in difficult conversations to draw out the root causes of an organizations culture in order to identify how to address unhealthy aspects of the culture. Her wealth of experience and ability to make employees at all levels feel comfortable and safe to speak openly and candidly was reflected by the positive impression she left on both staff and management.
Ms. Cantrill is very professional and conscientious and always ensured that her client was accommodated and its needs met in the delivery of her services.
Without reservation, I can happily recommend Ms. Cantrill to help any organization that is looking to improve its culture and introduce meaningful and sustainable change, as well as provide coaching and mentoring to staff and executives on positive leadership."
