JUNE BOYLE Founder of Skye Change Practice June, what was it about coaching and consultancy which drew you in, when did you decide this was something you could make an impact with? My coaching and consultancy practice grew out of many years working with world-class practitioners in the field of organisation and strategic business development. My experience in BP was pivotal. This was an organisation that needed to reset it’s future and brought some of the best thinkers, strategists, consultants and thought leaders in the field into the organisation. I had the opportunity to train, learn and partner with many of these key figures as BP embarked on a major transformation of the company over multiple years. It opened the whole field of what it meant to focus on organisation development, culture, knowledge management, being a learning organisation, coaching and developing leaders to be more effective in delivering breakthrough results. It widened my horizons and helped me realise that coaching and consultancy would be a key part of how I would operate as a leader in the future. It helped me to realise that the only key differentiator in an organisation of any shape or size are its’ people and supporting them to navigate change, learn and grow in response to the ever-changing environments and complexity we face in the world. As the Founder and managing director at Skye Change Practice, how did your 30 years of experience help you create a successful platform to support more organisations reach genuine business success? Having experienced a wide range of global organisations, not for profits and charities, each facing major challenges, disruption to their purpose, business models, products and services, it became increasingly clear to me that it required building relationships and numerous conversations through partnering and a process of co-creation for new and innovative pathways to take form. The ability to listen and meet the organisation where it was, deeply understand the context of the organisation and its environment – including what it exists for, building appreciation of the challenges ahead would be essential elements of what it takes to navigate future sustained future success. Can you tell us about the work at Skye Change and the team you have built to create services that aid organisations in a variety of ways? When Skye Change was formed in 2011 it was about something I loved and some I do.
