Caryn Walsh

Hi there

I’m Caryn Walsh and it’s great to meet you. It’s always wonderful to meet new and caring women who want to make a difference in the lives of others – and their own.

I wear a few hats. I am a psychologist, specialist in leadership and people development, business advisor, international motivational speaker, executive coach and I’m passionate about women. I’ve been by their side for years!

I work internationally on 3 continents and I have been with, coaching, training and guiding women for over 3 decades.

I work extensively in Organisations, across all sectors, helping leaders at all levels create and sustain highly performing teams, coaching CEO’s and senior leaders and women at all levels in Organisations. Which is why I know where they struggle and strategies to help them grow in themselves and their roles.

I was thrilled when one of the CEO’s I coached in 2016 (a woman!) was awarded the 2017 Australian CEO of the Year. Such an achievement. We women have so much to offer and don’t always know it.
Let’s work together, to build the sisterhood, growing women at all levels of Organisations and society by giving them a helping hand up.

It’s time and I can’t wait to work with you.
