Tricia is committed to the Manifesto of the Centre for Population Health. She enjoys work that makes a difference to people, organisations and communities and working with this team has demonstrated the value of working this way, getting deeper and wider and creating the conditions for significant progress.
Tricia has particular expertise in Leadership and Organisational development. She is an experienced consultant, coach and facilitator. Change happens one conversation at a time and she is able to design interventions to enable these conversations to happen. She can bring together people with different interests and perspectives and help them get beyond competing, to something much more collaborative.
She has worked across all sectors over a 30 year period and within that time has worked in NHS Scotland for 10 years leading an OD team working across Health and Social Care, Primary and Secondary care and Social Services, as well as another 5 years in England working as a senior consultant in The Kings Fund. She has an interest and competence in complex issues which require collaboration across organisational boundaries.
Tricia holds a Master’s degree in organisational consulting, is an accredited coach and is BPS accredited in levels 1 and 2 psychometric test use. She is also a Kantor Institute accredited dialogic interventionist.
She lives with her husband near Edinburgh in Scotland and has two grown children, one in Scotland and the other in Germany. She has learned to enjoy opera through her daughters musical talents, and the value of electric cargo bikes through her son, whose efforts are helping to clean the air in the city, reducing emissions. In her spare time she takes pleasure from creative upcycling of furniture and upholstery tasks, renovating and transforming items and bringing them back into service.
