Meet the Team: Carol Tavernier

Carol Tavernier is an experienced Learning and Organisational Development professional with a strong creative approach who has been practicing her skills for over 20 years.  Her early career and interests began in the creative fields, studying as a contemporary dancer and actress and working for several years in the television industry as a prop buyer and assistant art director. 

Carol has a strong creative and conceptual mind enjoying and skilled at constructing conversations utilising OD knowledge and frameworks for better collaboration and informed outcomes. Her experience has been gained in large complex organisations in the education, charity and public sectors working across the employee life cycle. This has involved process improvement, culture and engagement work, skills gap analysis, mentoring, leadership and succession planning, coaching and mentoring to name a few; working closely with key stakeholders such as Diversity and Inclusion, HR and strategic planning for alignment to the business. She is a confident facilitator skilled in various techniques such as appreciative enquiry, action learning set facilitation, visual explorer, process mapping, storytelling, constellations and various large scale interventions all aiming to seek clarity, robust qualitative data and improved group working. She likes to think of herself as a ‘choreographer of conversations’ believing that people hold the answers to making a change, either personally or organisationally. She would say that people are her thing.

When not working she loves to read, spend time working on her allotment and walking and caring for various dogs.
