My background

I have always been curious about what makes people tick. My first degree in Sports Science and Social Science, began a life-long exploration of individual motivation and team dynamics. I began my career with the largest human resources organisation in the UK, helping organisations attract and retain the best people. I discovered that employee engagement was the difference that made difference, and spent 15 years as an employee communications, engaged and organisational development specialist. But if great employee engagement is the route to improved organisational performance, then person-centred managers and inspiring leaders are the missing link.

My Journey

My earlier career experience lead me to create Hornbeam Associates in 2005, leading and working with a team in the UK and overseas delivering organisation development, change management, employee engagement, coaching and training.

The more time I spent working with leaders, the more I realised that unlocking performance was about supporting individuals to realise their potential, and equipping managers to develop a coaching-style of leadership.

How I can help you

I now spend my time as Kaye Burnett, following my passion: supporting individuals to be the very best versions of themselves, make positive choices and change for good. I work with managers and leaders to develop their leadership style to become even more person-centred, inclusive and confident. And I work with organisations to develop cultures that are compassionate, values-driven and ambitious. Valuing ourselves and each other to achieve success.

MY EXPERIENCE

Who I’ve worked with

RESOURCES

Ideas that inspire me

Civility Saves Lives

Chris Turner did a TEDx talk titled “When rudeness in teams turns deadly” and advocates people to treat each other with civility and respect in the workplace as it leads to much better outcomes for all

Time to Think

“The quality of everything we do depends on the quality of the thinking we do first.” I take a lot of inspiration from the work of Nancy Kline and bring this into the work that I do with clients

Neuroscience

I weave a lot of neuroscience into my work as it offers great insights into how the brain impacts our behaviour and cognitive functions. A key neuroscience tool I use in in my work is the SCARF model

Charitable support

Living my values

Being able to support and provide environments where others can thrive, lies at the heart of everything I do, which is why I am proud to support 6 charities.

Whether this is through financial support or offering my time, it is very important I give to those in need. Click on each charity’s logo to find out more about the great work they do.
