Where Behavioural Science

Meets Business Structure

Organisational change that makes your business smarter and your people stronger.


I help businesses cut through wasteful systems, stuck mindsets, and confusing change strategies so they become more efficient, resilient, and future-ready.

Organisational Change | Business Efficiency | Leadership Development |

Your business doesn’t need another framework that never sees the light of day past sign-off.

What you actually need is fewer bottlenecks, fewer silent frustrations and fewer well-intentioned ideas that don’t go anywhere.

I work with ambitious organisations that know they’re not running as efficiently as they could be but also know that slashing headcount and rolling out new policies won’t fix the problem.

The truth is that inefficiency is rarely just operational. 

It’s behavioural, cultural and structural. It’s all the things that can’t be changed by sending around another deck on an ‘All Staff’ email.

I help businesses drive meaningful efficiency by doing the hard things well, and that’s:

  • Leading change effectively

  • Making decisions with pace

  • Upgrading systems without losing your people

  • And finally fixing the leadership and team behaviours that quietly hold everything back

I don’t focus on cost-cutting. I help rewire your business for efficiency and stop the leaks that drain resources.

Most change efforts fall into two camps:

  • Vague motivational slogans that don’t touch performance

  • Brutal cuts that damage trust, morale, and retention

Instead, I help you change the way your business runs (with your people, not against them). Smart efficiency isn’t about trimming back - it’s about:

  • Diagnosing what’s really slowing you down

  • Getting the right people doing the right work

  • And removing friction in a way that builds trust, not breaks it

That’s how you save time, reduce churn, improve culture, and actually deliver results.

You’ve scaled fast, but your internal systems haven’t caught up

  • You’re dealing with change resistance and low accountability

  • Your leaders were promoted for performance, but haven’t been taught how to lead

  • You’re wasting time on misaligned processes, people friction, and decision fatigue

  • You need to restructure or streamline but don’t want to lose your best people in the process

What my clients say

  • "Christen was recommended to us at a pivotal moment, as our team was navigating a restructure and significant change without the right tools or internal expertise to manage it effectively. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly listen, joining multiple calls ahead of our first session to understand our challenges with care and empathy. She then crafted a bespoke workshop tailored to our needs, designed to help the team navigate change with confidence. It was clear that Christen had put immense thought into both the content and the outcomes she wanted us to achieve. The session itself was delivered with warmth, creating a safe and supportive environment where the team felt comfortable opening up and sharing. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with colleagues walking away with valuable insights and practical coping strategies. We went on to partner with Christen for two further sessions, each delivered with the same high level of care, personalisation, and impact. It has been a genuine pleasure working with Christen. She has brought real value to our team during a period of uncertainty, and her expertise, empathy, and thoughtful approach have made a lasting difference."
