Secrets to consistent high performance

I made a mistake while interviewing with Jude Law, and it changed everything: lessons from theatre to TV to St. James's Place.


Carole, a former TV presenter and journalist, is now the Head of Learning and Development at St. James's Place, and her career story is a testament to growth, resilience, and reinvention. Her journey has taken her from performing on international stages to navigating the high-pressure world of TV, and finally, to shaping corporate success through continuous learning and development.


Key takeaways:


  • Have a positive self-statement: Boost your confidence with "I'm going to nail this", or add "yet" to remind yourself that growth is a process.
  • Stack your skills: In any non-traditional path, your past experiences have value.
  • Always be self-aware: Know your “why” and your “drivers and drainers".


Carole’s story is about embracing the unexpected, trusting your instincts, and always being open to change—whether you're behind the scenes or in the spotlight. She shares practical advice on how to unlock high performance, build a strong support system, and know when to pivot in your career.
