Having previously fulfilled the role of Head of Communications for a national charity, Lucinda has a particular passion for the not-for-profit sector and the communication challenges that charities often face.

Lucinda's passion for putting pen to paper extends to her leisure time as a keen calligrapher. But when she's not crafting or commentating, she's cooking. Mostly curry.

In her free time, Aneta loves to travel and prides herself on having visited over 40 countries across five continents. She loves the outdoors, and enjoys hiking, swimming and scuba diving.
Heeral's philosophy is that for people to thrive at work they need leaders who know how to lead, who understand the importance of creating inclusive work cultures, and who value the link between mental wellbeing and motivation. If an organisation can pull together these 3 aspects to create psychologically safe environments there is no limit to success.
Heeral is passionate about helping people have brave conversations. This is needed if we truly want diverse workforces to thrive. So whether it's working with one person or an entire leadership team she will open up the conversation authentically. She has worked across industries and professions, her most glamourous project being with a team in Bermuda. So if you need her to travel, she most certainly will!
