At the centre of cultivating such an exceptional range of courses is none other than award-winning influential businesswoman Paula Tully. Having spent her career as a global senior leader in the pharmaceutical sector, Paula often found herself witnessing the hardships facing aspiring leaders – something that she vowed to change. Empowered by her passion for making a difference to businesses and the people within them, Paula set herself on an all new venture to grant individuals the confidence needed to soar to all new heights. In essence, Paula dedicated herself to mastering the art of helping people to lead with intention, resulting in a surge of individuals turning to her for advice and guidance. In response, she founded Escentia, hoping that it could represent everything she stood for. Surely enough, as time has passed, the collective has become a trusted partner within the realm of talent development, with various teams and organisations approaching its courses with a genuine desire to grow. In Paula’s own words – “It’s about standing in our power so that we are being confident and strong - ready to lead ourselves, our teams, and our organisations in a highly complex and ambiguous world.” By aligning herself with the six factors that she found integral to her own long-term success, Paula inspires rising leaders to apply clarity, courage, congruence, connection, coherence, and compassion to their practises. In doing so, clients can not only uplift themselves, but also foster immense levels of productivity and growth among their respective teams. Without the expertise upon which Paula based Escentia, these future leaders may have never been presented with the opportunity to flourish. However, with her help, many have finally been able to chase their dreams without getting lost along the way. It takes a truly noble and selfless woman to cultivate a dependable entity upon which all manner of clients can rely, and yet Paula has achieved this very outcome. Escentia, who is still developing revolutionary leadership development programmes to this day, marks a drastic shift in the leadership consultancy industry – a shift that many needed, but very few knew how to pursue. And yet, where potential leaders may have once competed for success, Paula has meticulously developed an environment in which mutual respect and empowerment conquers all.
