Is Influence & Impact right for you?
Let’s be honest, even for those of us who love our jobs, leadership can be tough at times. Perhaps some of these resonate with you?
- You constantly feel pressured and rushed at work, juggling multiple tasks and other people’s needs and feeling like it is impossible to get it all done
- You’re always putting your own needs last and rarely find time for your own development as a leader
- You look like you’ve got it all under control but actually worry is keeping you up at night and you struggle to switch off from work
- You feel like your inner critic, that negative voice in your head, is really loud. And then you proceed to beat yourself up for having such a loud inner critic!
- You want to develop your career and need to be seen as credible at that next level of leadership
- You want to be taken seriously when you walk into a room of senior stakeholders
- You want to be able to calmly and powerfully respond to challenging situations and negative feedback rather than react to them
- Imposter syndrome crops up for you regularly causing you to doubt yourself
- You set really high standards for yourself and can always see how you could have done things better
So you work harder and harder in the hope of finally getting everything under control and having your potential recognised and your opinion valued.
And I’m telling you from personal experience – that is a path to overwhelm, exhaustion and burnout!
Because the answer isn’t to work harder. Successful leaders didn’t become successful because they worked harder than anyone else.
They got there by being brilliant at influencing.
No matter how good you are at your job and how well you manage a team it is almost impossible to succeed as a leader without the ability to influence upwards and sideways.
Can you think of any leader you admire that hasn’t mastered influencing?
When you know how to influence others effectively so many things become possible…
- Tensions between departments get resolved
- Previously challenging colleagues are on your side
- CEOs start listening to what you have to say and even actively asking for your input on decisions.
- You can clear the way for your team to be able to deliver at a high level without obstacles
- Your potential within the organisation is recognised
Influencing is a leadership superpower!
And influencing starts with working on your own mindset. After all, can you really expect others to get fully on board with your plans when you are constantly doubting yourself?
It was when I focused on mastering my mindset (so I could lead myself) and learning how to influence (so I could lead others) that things really shifted for me.
I went on to be promoted to CEO in a charity and later became Managing Director of a leading recruitment company - despite being new to recruitment! And as a coach and consultant I’ve worked in and for many organisations now, dealing with CEOs and boards on a daily basis, influencing with ease and helping shape the direction of the organisation. And I’m much happier now I’ve mastered my mindset too!
- Getting promotions
- Being given a seat at the table for decision-making
- Receiving better feedback from their line manager
- Improving their relationships with their peers
That’s why I created my 3 part Influence & Impact framework which forms the core of my Influence & Impact group coaching programme for female leaders.
Influence & Impact
This 3 month group training and coaching programme is for female leaders who want to become brilliant at influencing, tackle self-doubt and make more impact at work.
As well as the live sessions you also get lifetime access to 9 modules including bite-sized videos, coaching tools and powerful self-reflection exercises to learn exactly how to master your mindset, communicate with clarity and confidence and influence senior stakeholders.
- Learn how to quieten the voice of your inner critic - even if your inner critic is really loud!
- Discover how to ditch perfectionism and overworking without dropping your standards
- Revolutionise your relationships with difficult colleagues by adopting a new and more powerful perspective
- Use these powerful communication frameworks to push back without seeming aggressive or defensive
- Learn how to speak the language of senior decision-makers
- Feel more confident saying no and stop others overloading you with work
- Uncover the unhelpful stories you’re telling yourself which are holding you back and learn a step by step framework you can use to rewrite those stories
- Learn how to stop emotionally overinvesting in work and taking setbacks personally
- Meet your Inner Leader – the wise, calm and confident part of you that you can tap into whenever you need her (and start taking her to meetings instead of your inner critic)
- Learn how to shift your state immediately to become more confident and have more authority in challenging situations
- Transform how you deal with negative feedback and criticism
We love celebrating client success!

Some of our members share how they've grown as a leader since joining...
Katie, who leads a team of project managers, realised that to develop her leadership skills she needed to let go of perfectionism and overworking...
“Being part of a group of amazing independent talented women, leading across a wide range of different fields has been inspiring. It has provided a unique perspective on both the course content and individual challenges raised.
I wanted to tackle perfectionism and I feel like I am now on the path to success!
I really appreciate this experience and I would definitely recommend this course and working with Carla. Carla is extremely supportive, whilst being direct and getting to the point, a powerful combination!”
Samantha grew as a leader in the charity sector...
Now I have much more confidence in my own ability
"Influence and Impact has really helped me connect with the leader I had in myself all along. I found it incredibly helpful to be able to learn not only from Carla, but also draw on the experience of the others in the group, as I step into my own leadership journey.
What did I find most valuable on the course? I think being able to witness that everyone has their own strengths and challenges, and that that's completely normal! It was great to step outside of the context of my own workplace to be able to see things from different perspectives, and then try them out in my own time with regular support from the group.
I'm leaving the course in the knowledge that good leadership is a lifelong learning journey, but now I have much more confidence in my own ability, as I have many more tools in my box, and know that I have it within myself to keep learning. Right, off to practice my power poses..."
