Executive Facilitator for Strategy, Transformation & Leadership Teams

London-based Sophie Taylor is an executive facilitator, strategic consultant, and programme director with more than 35 years of experience helping leadership teams navigate complexity, align around strategic priorities, and deliver meaningful organisational change.

She works with executive teams, transformation leaders, and senior stakeholders to create the conditions for better thinking, stronger alignment, and more effective decision-making. Through expertly designed strategy workshops, leadership retreats, and transformation programmes, Sophie helps organisations move from discussion to direction and from strategy to action.

Her approach is built on a simple principle: organisations achieve better outcomes when people share a clear understanding of the challenges they face, the opportunities ahead, and the actions required to move forward. By creating structured environments for strategic dialogue, collaboration, and problem-solving, she enables leaders to address complex issues with greater clarity, confidence, and commitment.

Sophie is recognised for designing immersive executive experiences that help organisations tackle transformation, operating model change, growth, innovation, stakeholder alignment, and organisational development. Combining strategic insight with highly visual facilitation methods, she helps teams make sense of complexity, identify priorities, accelerate decision-making, and build momentum around shared goals.

Over the course of her career, Sophie's work has worked with organisations in 18 countries, including Airbus, Bosch, BP, Coventry University, Cranfield University, Dentsu, FedEx, Great Place To Work, Hitachi Rail Europe, the NHS, Network Rail, Ofcom, and MBDA. More than 400 SMEs have also benefited from her input.

Her professional background spans consultancy, higher education, organisational development, leadership development, and business transformation. She has worked with organisations including Thunderbird School of Global Management, the University of Hertfordshire, Pearson VUE, and Vector Consultants.

Whether supporting a scale-up, a major transformation programme, or an established organisation navigating change, Sophie helps leaders create clarity, align stakeholders, strengthen collaboration, and accelerate progress towards strategic objectives.
