Her career highlights include developing the Future IM/Pact project in partnership with leading super funds and fund managers, advising the Australian Cricketer’s Association and Cricket Australia on pay equity principals to support the landmark deal for female players, and running complex global pay equity audits.
But her most compelling experience has come from “life”.
“At 23, bumbling my way through my early career years, I was introduced to principles that changed the course of my personal and professional life. By cultivating integrity and self-expression, I learned we can access enormous personal freedom; well worth pursuing despite the fear and discomfort we experience from facing our own stuff. Especially when this stuff comes at such a high personal cost, such as the impact on those closest to you, or derailing your own professional fulfilment.”
Since then, Yolanda has spent thousands of hours studying what it takes to quieten the inner critic, let go of the unhelpful stories we tell ourselves, and be open and responsive instead of reactive and defensive. She’s honed these principles as a leader in her corporate roles, building highly engaged and effective teams in the process.
Her infectious energy, passion for breaking the mould and insatiable desire to get to the heart of issues in pursuit of solutions that work make her a sought-after coach and much-valued extension of the teams she works with.
