A TRUSTED LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT FACILITATOR
Training leaders with compassion, enthusiasm and creativity
Training leaders and transforming teams across the housing sector
Is your team disconnected? Unmotivated? Bogged down in office politics?
Are you struggling to communicate with your team? To manage different personalities?
Do you or your team need to improve your strategic thinking and creativity?
Compassionate Leaders’ Hayley Gillard has been one of the most well-regarded leadership development facilitators for managers in the social housing sector for over a decade and a half.
With a background and multiple degrees in business and psychology, Hayley supports organisations to create the psychologically safe conditions in which high-performing teams can be built, and helps leaders to lead with confidence, compassion and build teams that thrive.
An effective and versatile leadership development facilitator
Hayley began her career working in various business development roles for a housing association, and spent 6 years delivering volunteer training, holding staff engagement forums, managing the skills and employment support service, and more in-house.
Leaving her role as Business Innovations Manager in 2015, she has since forged a reputation as a skilled, empowering and engaging facilitator and trainer. Her coaching and training for housing associations reflects her understanding of industry terminology, the political landscape across housing organisations, and operating conditions.
Hayley understands the pressure organisations like yours are facing around building safety to upgrade buildings, refine policies, and protect the residents in your homes, whilst maintaining efficient internal processes and brand reputation, and can help leaders and teams to navigate the related organisational pressures and challenges.
Hayley has developed a track record of delivering accredited leadership development courses, programmes and training for housing associations that help leaders like you to develop your leadership skills, strengthen and transform your team, and maximise engagement, innovation and performance across your department and organisation.
A leadership development facilitator blending leadership with psychology
Hayley is a skilled and experienced leadership development facilitator with an approach to leadership development coaching and training that is unique, but highly effective.
Whether supporting you with coaching, courses or programmes, Hayley and her trusted associates, will help you to lead with compassion, confidence, empathy, and emotional intelligence. This support will also help you to develop your self-awareness to enable you to create a positive culture of collaboration where your team can innovate, communicate and thrive.
Inline with her background in business and psychology, she delivers invaluable leadership training with psychological safety at its centre, to help you create the conditions on which high-performing teams can be built.
But, what is psychological safety?
Psychological safety is the bedrock of high-performing teams, and the key to unlocking your team’s full potential so they can achieve outstanding results. Developing and maintaining psychological safety across your department or organisation isn’t always easy, and is often misunderstood as being nice or friendly. It can involve tackling some complicated challenges, and developing the ability to challenge your teammates.
As a talented, experienced leadership development facilitator with a background and qualifications in psychology, Hayley understands that psychological safety principles are incredibly effective in enabling business leaders like you to cultivate an environment where your team can communicate openly, take risks, innovate, learn from mistakes, trust one another, and collaborate effectively with confidence.

“We were a big group of 17 people, and Hayley managed to keep us engaged and open to collaborating with each other. She didn’t draw much attention to herself, instead acted as an enabler for us all to feel safe to share our experiences and opinions. During the day, Hayley guided us through several very challenging tasks, ensured we stayed on track and produced tangible results by the end of the session. I can’t wait to work together again.””
