Evidence-based coaching and workshops for high-performers and emerging leaders - building the confidence to decide, courage to lead, and capacity to grow.
Why Leadership Confidence Matters
Leaders don’t just set strategy - they set the tone for their whole team. When confidence is shaky, it can show up as hesitation, overthinking, or missed opportunities.
When confidence is strong, leaders communicate clearly, delegate well, and inspire trust. That translates into:
More engaged teams
Higher retention
Leaders ready to step up when needed
Investing in leadership confidence pays off. It builds resilience, strengthens succession pipelines, and supports healthier workplace cultures.

About Me
I'm Marguerite Farmer, founder of North & Nimble, and a certified senior practitioner coach. My MSc research (now published) explored how leaders develop confidence when they experience impostor feelings - and what I saw is that those feelings often surface at moments of transition: a first leadership role, a step up to senior level, a move into a new organisation.
Since then, I've worked with leaders across sectors including professional services, technology, and finance, supporting them to navigate those transitions with confidence and impact.
My approach is warm, human, and evidence-based - helping leaders, and the organisations they work in, thrive without relying on quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions.
Who I Work With
I support:
Emerging leaders stepping into management for the first time
High performers preparing for bigger challenges
Senior leaders navigating new pressures at the top
Neurodivergent leaders, bringing unique strengths while managing the extra pressures workplaces can create
