Hi, my name is David Wetton and welcome to the Conscious Leadership Now Video Podcast

The intent of this Podcast is to encourage you as a leader to embrace Conscious Leadership, by giving you access to some of the world’s leaders in the field of Conscious Leadership, both in practice and in thought.

Today my guest is Lorraine Flower

As a Corporate change agent, consultant, coach and mentor, Lorraine founded Azzur being completely transparent about the spiritual principles on which it operates and has worked with clients across the business spectrum.

Lorraine brings 20 years' service industry experience to bear through her senior leadership roles at British Airways (BA) and Great North Eastern Railway (GNER).

It is Lorraine's belief in individual and organisational power for good that gives Azzur its raison d'etre. …an organisational development consultancy beyond the conventional – energising the heart of your business.
