Gemma Perkins - Founder of The Self Leadership Initiative

Gemma is a personal transformation facilitator, providing bespoke and interactive learning experiences that inspire and empower people to be their best selves. 

Seven years ago Gemma started her own training company following nine years of experience in youth leadership development, a first-class degree in psychology and qualifying as a teacher. Her experience in teaching solidified her belief that education was missing out on the essential soft skills such as conflict resolution, leadership, effective communication and how to use positive psychology to lead a happy life. By providing these skills sets and more to teams, they are able to achieve great things together. 

Gemma works with a broad range of corporate managers, community groups, educators, HE providers and refugees – encouraging all ages and positions to learn through play and develop the inner leader (or self leader) as the starting point for success. To date she has worked with over 2500 individuals, including delivering workshops internationally in India, Switzerland and Bahrain. Her particular areas of interest are emotional intelligence, team dynamics and wellbeing.

Natasha Jones - Employment Lawyer and Workplace Wellbeing Ambassador

Natasha Jones was called to be a lawyer to help others following her study of human nature in psychology and as a result of her lifelong intrigue in what makes people 'tick'. After being in the masculine energy of 'success' during her time as a lawyer over a twenty-year period, she observed that those she worked and socialised with were in the typically 'man's world' of law and business. After observing the terrible effect that life-changing events can incur on people, Natasha began to see more clearly and closely the struggle to grieve and come to terms with the 'rug being pulled from under' a person. Increasingly, she begun to empathise with individuals-typically men-who seemed to never allow themselves to develop self-love/nurturing skills. From there, she began a journey of passion to inspire resilience and help people-including clients, friends, and husbands of friends-to find the tools to cope with devastating events in their lives.
