Who we are
About Aligned Leadership
Sian is a sought after leadership specialist
and the founder of Aligned Leadership.
With over 20 years experience working with leaders in organisations and having been a leader myself, I truly understand the challenges that leaders face today. My role as a coach, facilitator and trainer is to transform leaders to achieve greater team performance and results.
Working closely with with HR, L&D and Business Leaders I support organisations to develop leadership cultures and capability driven by the right behaviours. I help leaders to create great work environments with clear vision and purpose that is aligned to the business strategy & goals.
Through one to one coaching, group programmes run online or face to face, or designing bespoke packages, I help my clients to not just develop good leaders, but inspirational ones.
Â
The role of leaders is more critical than ever before in creating places where people choose to work and give their best performance. So many leaders are promoted off the back of great reputations, built on technical skills and expertise, but unfortunately this doesnât mean that they will be a good people leader. Being a great leader requires a completely different set of skills, behaviours and a mindset shift.
This is where I come in to help!
I work with individuals, teams and organisations to deliver training that transforms mindsets, changes behaviour and equip leaders with the skills they need to be the best leader that they can be.
Being naturally collaborative, with a touch of humour helps to create dialogue, interaction and a fun and engaging learning environment. My style has been described as creative, intelligent, professional and practical and I bring a depth of insight as well as tremendous energy and enthusiasm to all that I do.
Leaders will continue to be at the heart of the work I do and helping leaders to truly be the best leaders they can be. Great leadership with a human touch is critical to business success and Iâm passionate about bringing this to the organisations I work with!

Who we are
Our Approach
To achieve success, organisations need leaders who can support that success, not detract from it.
We know from our experience that leading people is a really tough job. The world is ever more complex for a variety of reasons; digitalisation, multiple generations in the work place, increased competition, globalisation, individuals who want balance in their life and continuous dialogue about their performance and development, and a global pandemic that has seen the world of work shift on its axis.
Individuals have more choice about where they work, how they work, who they work with, why they work and when they work than ever before.
Why then is leadership such a challenge?
âSian was great to work with and her design of the programme was the start of something very specialâ. Austin Swain, Lane4
- the people and situations around them
- from the leaders behaviours and impact on those around them

LEADERSHIP
COACHING
Providing the space and time for leaders to work through their development in a deep and transformational way and in their own way with the expertise offered by our range of coaches.
Leadership
Development
Leaders are the bridge between business vision, strategy & goals and business delivery. Organisations are full of people employed to do a job, yet we know itâs not that simple. People want more.
Culture &
Engagement
Culture is about behaviours and the âway things work around hereâ. Engagement is about how your people feel about working in that culture. A positive culture will result in greater engagement and in turn greater performance.
