For nearly three decades, Carol has worked with thousands of people in her roles as an Executive Coach, University Lecturer, Conference Speaker and Facilitator in the Personal & Professional Development Industry collaborating with all levels of Sport, Government, Not for Profit and Corporate Clients teaching concepts from her book – “Confident Communication for Leaders”. A pioneer for women in sport in Australia, Carol was Victoria’s first female Surf Lifesaving Professional Lifeguard and raced in board, ski, swim and ironman events with the men because there were no events for women at that stage. Her master’s thesis: “Women’s Perceived Barriers to Elite Coaching Positions in Australian Sport” positively influenced the Australian Sports Commission in the 1990’s when determining policies for women in sport.
