Hear from a few of my clients

It has been a privilege to have worked closely with Laura over the past three years. She has become a trusted advisor to myself as CEO and to our leadership team and the Board of Luminate (a global philanthropic organisation). Laura has helped us to rethink our organisational design and our strategy and has worked exceptionally well with our (new) board to create a trusting ‘leadership community’. Laura is pragmatic, insightful and creative. She works well with diverse and global teams and is a person of high integrity. She takes her work seriously but is also fun to work with and we could not have redesigned our organisation to have maximum impact without her guidance.

I want to pay a special tribute to the rare skills and brilliant work of Laura Harrison, who was my consultant, my confederate and right-hand woman in this Review. Her experience in strategic change, human resources and the ways of the world are unmatched. 

Baroness Helena Kennedy of the Shaws KC 

Global Witness has benefited hugely from working with Laura over the past few years. Laura brings a depth and breadth of experience in organisational development that gives her insights and her recommendations great authority.
She also brings a keen emotional intelligence, kindness and inclusivity and a sense of fun too.
Laura’s approach is always grounded in principles while being flexible and pragmatic too. I would strongly recommend working with Laura!

Mike Davis CEO Global Witness

As a systems thinker with an intersectional lens, Laura dives deep into organizational complexities with unparalleled insight. Her provocative approach encourages questioning, doubt, and consultation, sparking creative and critical thinking. Laura excels at integrating diverse viewpoints, driving us toward more inclusive and equitable practices. She’s committed to our success and that has left a lasting impact.

Vivian Ntinyari, Chief Operating Officer, Reset.  

Laura has worked with us for over three years, initially helping us implement our DEI review and then developing our strategy. As well as advising on project management, she is an outstanding facilitator who blends structure with adaptability and a sense of purpose with a sense of fun. Underpinning it all is her considerable experience and in-depth expertise driven by a strong set of values. I highly recommend her.

Andrew Reed CEO Royal College of Surgeons of England

Any organisation that is looking to transform should engage Laura – her ability to quickly develop insight and get to the heart of an organisation’s potential is second to none. She ensures that she always puts fairness, diversity and inclusion at the heart of her practice. Laura is truly committed to working in partnership with her clients and sharing her deep expertise and creative approaches for change.

Nadia Buyan, Strategy and Organisation Development Director, Global Witness 

I would recommend Laura wholeheartedly. She has an exceptional understanding of the kind of leadership and teams that are required by our complex and fast-moving times and is an expert at supporting people to build the skills and strengths needed within teams to enable their own transformation. She is exceptional.

Gemma Mortensen, Co-founder of More In Common 

Working with Laura Harrison on a series of strategic and operational matters has been a productive pleasure. She has impressive knowledge and valuable experience of organisations and their intricacies, but never loses sight of the individuals and the human relationships that ultimately make things happen. Laura is wise, inquisitive, open-minded, pragmatic, and keen to help her clients achieve concrete, lasting change. I personally learned a lot from Laura and really enjoyed our collaboration.

"

Mabel van Oranje, Champion, Girls Not Brides, Human Rights Activist 

I have worked with Laura over the past year on delivering a transformational cultural shift, building our collaborative muscle and embedding equity, diversity and inclusion at the heart. She is a perfect balance of creative insights, strategic thoughts and practical solutions as well as being fun to work with.
