Katrina Howard

I’m an executive and career coach based in Canberra, supporting leaders and professionals to navigate complexity, challenge and change, and to lead themselves well.For over 20 years, my work has focused on helping people think clearly under pressure, make sound decisions, and move forward with confidence and integrity in their careers and leadership.I work with senior executives, managers and professionals across state and federal government, peak bodies, NGOs, industry and the private sector.Clients engage with me when they are navigating career crossroads, preparing for promotion (including SES and executive interviews), stepping into broader leadership responsibility, managing stress or complexity, or wanting to strengthen their executive presence and influence.My coaching blends depth and pragmatism. I’m known for creating a calm, confidential space where people can speak openly, think clearly, and work through what’s really going on. As one client described working with me:“Kat’s manner is the perfect blend of head, heart, humour and professionalism.”I draw on executive coaching, career development and psychologically informed self-leadership approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), to support clients to realign with their values, strengths and priorities, renew motivation, and move forward with confidence and direction.In addition to one-to-one coaching, I design and facilitate group workshops and programs in leadership development, self-leadership, resilience, career development, public speaking, communication and workplace wellbeing.
