Introduction
I work with leaders & their teams who want to lead with more clarity, courage, & humanity — while maintaining a strong focus on what most matters to them as they do so. For over twenty years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside leaders & their teams as a transformational facilitator & executive coach, helping such leaders & their teams reconnect with their sense of worth and with what truly matters to them. Within my approach, when leaders understand their value at a deeper level, they tend to lead more powerfully — with more presence, purpose, and care for the people around them. My transformational work has taken me across many countries and contexts — from large global organizations to NGOs & nonprofits. Senior leaders & their teams seem to be where I can create the most impact. Wherever I am, the heart of the work remains the same: creating a calm, trusting space where people can slow down, reflect honestly, and have the conversations that help them lead & relate more thoughtfully & inspirationally. I’m particularly drawn to moments of change, tension, or uncertainty — when emotional intelligence, resilience, clear communication, & effective influence really matter. Outside of work, I’m a mother to two teen-aged girls who keep me grounded and constantly remind me what presence for the sake of meaning & care look like. Together, we live in Lyon, France. I’ve practiced yoga for twenty-five years, having completed a 200-hour Vinyasa teacher training in 2009. When I’m not working, you’ll often find me increasing the joy in my life through swimming in the sea, walking along the beach, or dancing — especially to reggaeton! At the core of everything I do is a belief that leadership is less about having the right answers and more about showing up with awareness, intention, & impact. That’s the journey I care most about supporting & where I have proven impact.

Aberkyn was co-founded with McKinsey & Company. At Aberkyn, we expand consciousness of leaders so they transform themselves, their teams and their organizations to be a force for good in this world. Together with Aberkyn, Colleen has served countless international organizations in their transformational journeys. Her latest program over the last year and ongoing is a complete Organizational Culture Transformation Journey with a top financial services company in Frankfurt having personally delivered over 50 workshops, supporting the organization to define their Values and Purpose, align on new behaviors and mindsets and on embedding the new culture. Apart from serving clients, Colleen is also faculty for firm learning within McKinsey & Co and has worked with many Client Service Teams, Engagement Management and Partner groups to raise connection, resilience and impact. Aberkyn is uniquely positioned, combining deep expertise in transforming leadership behavior with strong international business experience as leaders and strategy consultants. Behavioural transformation will only happen if you go beneath the surface. We challenge leaders to think through and reflect on what we call their iceberg. Above the waterline, and visible to all, are our behaviours and the outcomes and results they lead to. Below the waterline is unseen and often neglected, yet it’s these underlying patterns that can limit transformation. The hidden parts of the iceberg include thoughts, feelings, beliefs, values and needs. By increasing a leader’s awareness of these unseen limiting patterns, we help remove blockages and create a shift in belief. This allows the leader to choose different and more productive ways of thinking, acting and living.
