The day
Before you plan next year, understand the one you've just had.
A small-group masterclass with Dr Jo Perkins, combining psychological insight with practical strategies for clearer thinking, better decisions and sustainable performance.
Every leader’s year leaves its mark. The pressure you’ve carried has shaped how you think, the decisions you’ve made and how you’ve performed, often in ways that are hard to see from the inside.
What drove you forward? What held you back? Which patterns helped you succeed, and which might now be limiting you?
In a small, confidential group, Jo helps you recognise those patterns and understand what they mean for how you lead, so you can close this year well and approach the next with a clearer head.

Your facilitator
Psychological depth. Real business understanding.
For over 25 years I’ve helped senior leaders, business owners, entrepreneurs and organisations uncover the patterns shaping how they think, perform and relate to others, by combining psychological rigour and an extensive breadth of business insight.
I’m a Chartered Coaching and Counselling Psychologist, registered with the HCPC and an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society. These days are small and confidential by design, so there is room for real reflection and honest conversation.

For teams and boards
Bring your team: the private edition
Want this for your whole leadership team, founding team or board? Either day, or both, can be run privately on a date that suits you: at your offices, your chosen offsite, or a central London venue.
Your team works through the day individually and together. You leave with an agreed plan the whole team owns, a shared way of talking about pressure, and clearer decision-making going into the year.
