Roger Martin

Though unique to me, parts of my life story may resonate with you too. I’ve worked in toxic cultures and helped craft those in which people thrive. I’ve been divorced twice and learnt much on both occasions. I was estranged from my children for over 20 years but no longer am. I’ve suffered much anxiety and depression but don’t to the same extent anymore. Professionally speaking I qualified as a management accountant. But, driven by a desire to help people’s experience of workplaces be fulfilling, not demoralising, I soon switched to the world of leadership and team development. Over the last 37 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with thousands of leaders and see myself as a student of what works and what doesn’t for them. Variously I play the role of sounding board, critical friend, coach, mentor, consultant, and speech writer. Nowadays I write more and record audios and videos too. I have a Substack called Helpful Questions Change Lives. It’s a friendly place in which to inquire into why you, and the rest of us, experience life the way we do, with all its ups and downs.  Do join me there if this is up your street or, perhaps, someone you care about.
