Potential...to be your best
We can always do our best – in everything that we do – although we might not get the results we want.
What interferes with our best-laid plans and what can we do about it?
Performance = Potential – Interference
External interference
Internal interference
How you think, feel, and behave
These obstacles create ‘friction’, which is defined as the totality of uncertainty, errors, accidents, technical difficulties and the unforeseen and their effect on decisions, morale and action.’
What is causing the friction that is limiting your potential?
Pain and friction at work
Whatever friction or obstacles you are encountering at work, the search for a solution for bringing about the change you want begins with you.
Only once we understand how we think, feel, and behave as individuals can we begin to try to understand why other people, teams, and the wider organization operate the way they do.
Four more levels of dysfunction
Interpersonal
– issues occurring between two people: ‘personality clashes’; role conflicts; power & ego struggles; misaligned values; disrespectful confrontation & communication; exacerbated by isolation through working from home (WFH).
Team
– issues occurring within a team: individual psychological defensiveness impacting team dynamics; poor communication; weak team identity; leadership failure; lack of psychological safety (fear prevents team performance).
Pains and obstacles at work rarely involve only one individual.
Friction can be systemic and cultural and found at every level.
Inter-team
– issues occurring between teams within the same organization:
poor communication & minimal inter-team cooperation; misaligned purposes & objectives; low or zero psychological safety; power & ego struggles and toxic leadership.
Organizational
– issues arising across the whole organization: a culture that lacks psychological safety (colleagues mistrust and lack respect for each other and feel unable to be candid); lack of clarity of vision, mission, and team objectives.
Thinking - emotionally and logically
All of Face Value’s services are based on the neuroscience of how we think, feel, and behave. It is important to accept that we think emotionally.
Keeping you alive is your brain’s No.1 priority, a skill that it has developed over several millions of years.
We act on impulse, continually looking out for dangers that are imminent, immediate, and immovable, and predicting how to handle them. We jump to conclusions and easily lose perspective.
Emotional thinking is tiring. Being alert or stressed all the time leads to heightened anxiety, reduced well-being, depression, and burnout.

About Face Value
My background in leadership development, occupational psychology, executive coaching, organization development and neuroscience gives me the skills and experience to help any client in any industry to maximise their potential for performance. I work with a small number of experienced associates, whom I’ve known for several years.
I have self-funded all the qualifications I need to be able to offer a professional and reliable service. These include: MBA (Open), MSc Occupational Psychology (Leics), ILM Level 7 Diploma Executive Coaching and Leadership Mentoring, BSc (Hons) Psychology, BA (Hons) Modern Languages (German and Russian).
My professional career includes 9 years as a commissioned officer in the British Army, reaching the rank of major by 30 years old and fulfilling roles as an HR Director/Company Secretary of an infantry battalion (1st Battalion The Green Howards) on operations in Northern Ireland and Bosnia-Herzegovina. I led the first-ever British Army expedition to Lake Baikal, the World’s largest freshwater lake, in Siberia, Russia in 1995, lasting 3 months.
After leaving the Forces, I held operations management roles in Ernst & Young, Cap Gemini and Accenture, before working for a number of boutique psychology consultancies, including Chimp Management, a company closely involved with various Team GB Olympic sports including cycling, swimming, taekwondo and canoeing.
I am supervised by an EMCC and ICF-accredited supervisor. I am also a qualified Mental Health First Aider, which compliments my skills workshops on managing stress and building resilience.
For my own wellbeing, I enjoy running, hill walking and real ale, occasionally combining all three by taking part in mountain marathons followed by a well-earned break in a local pub to refuel and recover. I enjoy reading history and biographies (as well as psychology, it goes without saying!), and I try to keep my German and Russian above the level of embarrassed British tourist asking for directions to the beach.
