A Message from Annette
Welcome- I’m Annette Bacon- Founder of Transforming Minds Coaching, TV Host, Leadership Coach, Speaker, Author and Adult Educator.
With experience spanning leadership roles from Team Leader through to Senior Management, I understand the challenges many leaders and organisations face in today’s workplace environments.
Leadership is no longer just about technical capability or performance outcomes. It also requires self-awareness, emotional intelligence, resilience and the ability to lead people with clarity, confidence and purpose.
Throughout my career, I have worked closely with individuals and teams navigating high-pressure environments, workplace change, competing demands and the increasing need for psychologically safe and supportive workplace cultures.
Through Transforming Minds Coaching, I support leaders and organisations to strengthen leadership capability, build emotionally intelligent workplaces and create environments where people feel valued, supported and empowered to perform at their best.
My approach combines practical leadership development with a head-and-heart leadership philosophy, helping leaders build confidence, communicate effectively, navigate challenges with greater resilience and lead with authenticity and purpose.
I believe strong leadership creates lasting impact, not only within organisations, but within the lives of the people they lead.
If you are seeking a leadership approach that values both performance and people, I would welcome the opportunity to connect.
Research Based Training and Development
Leadership Assessments
Gain deeper insight into your leadership style, strengths, communication patterns and growth opportunities through tailored leadership assessments designed to support both personal and professional transformation.
Using tools such as META DYNAMIC™ Profiling, Leadership Style Assessments and EDISC, we uncover the patterns, pressures and strengths shaping how you lead; helping you build greater self-awareness, confidence and clarity in your next steps.
This is about understanding yourself more deeply so you can lead with greater confidence, resilience and authenticity.
Focus on Emotional Intelligence
True leadership begins with self-awareness.
Together, we explore the emotional patterns, pressures and experiences shaping how you lead, communicate and respond under stress- helping you build deeper confidence, stronger boundaries and more meaningful connection with others.
This work supports you to lead with empathy and clarity, while remaining grounded in who you are, even in challenging environments.
Neuroscience-Based Coaching
Understanding how your brain responds to stress, pressure and change can transform the way you lead and live.
Through neuroscience-informed coaching, you’ll gain insight into the patterns and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck in self-doubt, overthinking or burnout and begin creating new pathways that support confidence, resilience and sustainable growth.
This approach helps you move beyond survival mode so you can lead with greater calm, clarity and purpose.
Tailored Solutions
No two leadership journeys are the same.
Your coaching experience is thoughtfully tailored to your unique goals, challenges, values and vision for the future, combining practical leadership development with transformational coaching that supports lasting personal and professional growth.
This is about more than career success.
It’s about becoming the leader you want to be.
Women in Leadsership Coaching Opportunities
As part of my commitment to supporting women in leadership and community services, a limited number of coaching opportunities are offered throughout the year.
These sessions are designed to provide a safe and supportive space for women seeking greater clarity, confidence and direction in their leadership journey- particularly during seasons of challenge, transition or emotional exhaustion.
If you’re feeling stuck, questioning your next steps, or simply needing space to reconnect with yourself and your strengths, you are warmly invited to apply.
This is about supporting women who spend so much of their lives supporting others.
