About CTC's founder Angela Morgan

My background
My background is that I spent almost 20 years working as a lawyer in the City of London. I was the first female specialising in corporate finance law to be appointed a partner at my law firm (Theodore Goddard, as it then was, now Addleshaw Goddard). It was a demanding career working with industry leaders and other highly performing professionals.

Having achieved my goals led me to reflect on what was next, and to re-assess my work life balance. My firm generously gave me a sabbatical during which I travelled the world from Bolivia to Sri Lanka. A period of reflection eventually led me to decide to take on a new challenge by becoming a coach and trainer.

I now split my time between personal and professional development coaching and training and developing and presenting seminars on corporate finance law, for lawyers and other professionals.

I have always been committed to my own learning and development. Sparked by the challenges that I encountered on my path, I took many courses to further my own learning. I came across NLP in the early nineties and found it offered a really useful way of improving my people skills. It also gave me a different perspective on the world and myself. I am now a qualified NLP coach and trainer and I continue to attend courses to develop my skills.

I have also been committed for many years to creating more equal opportunities for women. When I started out on my legal career women were very much in the minority. Today this is no longer the case, although they are still very much a minority of equity partners in most law firms. I have been an active member for many years of the Association of Women Solicitors, of which I was Chairwoman in 1999. I am also a member of City Women's Network, which is one of the longest established networks for senior professional and business women in the United Kingdom.

What matters to me
The things that are most important to me are learning, fairness and being true to myself. I want people to be able to fulfil their potential and to be appreciated for who they are and what they contribute.

My approach
Some of the ways others have described me are: sincere, genuine, honest, authentic, creative, caring, thoughtful, playful and insightful. My style of coaching is to be direct, forthright, to reflect back what I hear and to empower you to find your own path.

Coaching and training qualifications
I am a qualified NLP coach, NLP trainer and NLP master practitioner. I trained as an NLP coach with ITS in 2002, on an ICF accredited coaching course. I qualified as an NLP trainer in 2002 on the trainers' training course run by Robert Dilts in California.
