“Simone was one of FIFA’s leading experts on Technical Leadership development, and a core part of their team for leadership, management, and mentoring. Having worked with Simone in several capacities across both club and international level of the game, I would highly recommend her services to anyone who has a focus on people, business, and leadership development. A forward-thinking strategist who can communicate at all levels and will drive and support projects to maximise their full potential. She combines this level of expertise with an outstanding level of humility and professionalism.”

“The coach asked great questions to make me realise the priorities of the business’ - enhanced reflection and insight, less procrastination in work, more productive, less stressed, time to think”

CEO 

“One of the things I loved about working with Simone was the number of times she would ask a question about strategy or culture that would stop you in your tracks and make you think, “Huh, I’ve never thought about it like that.” She has a compelling vision for what excellence looks like and what a truly great sports environment can be. Her ability to blend strategic insight with deep cultural understanding is rare and invaluable.

Another lasting memory is her abundant positivity — it’s absolutely infectious. Simone has a way of lifting the energy in any room she walks into, while keeping everyone focused on what really matters”
