If you think you or members of your organisation may benefit from working with us on these issues, please contact our principal consultant David Heap, an organisational and coaching psychologist with over 30 years of professional experience.
Please read through our website. We hope you learn something that will help you. If you want to know more, let us know.
David is a leading organisational and coaching psychologist with over thirty years of professional experience.
His clients are primarily professionals working in senior or executive roles in large organisations or professional service firms. David works at 3 levels: Who you are, What you do, and Your relationships with others. Sometimes we cover all 3 in a program, building up from a base of health and self care, awareness of strengths and values and focusing on the individual. Then moving on to how your behaviours, thoughts and emotions are managed and aligned with your values, goals and purpose. Finally we often look at how you interact with others, build trusting relationships and influence those around to advance your shared purpose. This last domain is often the focus of leadership development programs but our experience is that this is most effective when combined with working in the other domains.
David has developed a wide repertoire of interventions over his years of practice and brings this experience to bear in tailoring each client’s program to their needs and preferences. In one client’s words “he meets you where you are, then takes you where you need to go”.
David is a registered organisational psychologist, a Fellow of the Australian Psychological Society, a Fellow and former Chair of the College of Organisational Psychologists, and former National Convener of the Coaching Psychology Interest Group of the APS. He is an Adjunct Fellow at Macquarie University. He is a Graduate Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. David has a BSc (Psych) with Honours from the University of NSW and a MBA from the Australian Graduate School of Management.
