Kate is the author of 7 Deadly Sins of Women in Leadership and Metamorph: Transforming Your Life and Leadership. A Baptist minister and leadership-development specialist, she has spent more than thirty-five years equipping leaders across church, charity, voluntary and business contexts.

Her teaching combines biblical insight, leadership experience and the lived realities of women, naming what holds us back while opening practical pathways towards freedom, courage and vocational authority.
