It’s Time To play a different game
Where you and your team do meaningful work in a safe and inclusive environment.
One that promotes trust and engagement.
Ensures you retain your key talent, rather than lose talented capable women, because they're no longer willing to put up with the unconscious biases so prevalent in the workplace.
Unacceptably long hours in an 'always on' culture is exhausting you and your team.
The pressure to perform shows no sign of letting up. Good people are leaving.
Senior women have been hit especially hard since the start of the pandemic, losing their jobs at a much higher rate than men in similar roles.
You've already lost two key senior women and top management still expects you to deliver the same, if not more and better, results with a smaller team.
You know the environment is unhealthy. But don't have the time or headspace to work out how to shift it.
With remote working now the norm, there's no boundary between work and home; nor is there the time or space to create a workable work-life balance.
And that concerns you. Because you know, even now that lockdown has eased, remote working is here to stay.
What if You could Transform your Workplace?
Change how you lead, and you'll change the way others relate to you.
It all begins with you
Hello I'm
Dr Almira Ross
As one of only a few women in technology, I simply got on with the work I loved. Not realising that I was carving out a path not just for myself, but for other women to follow.
I’d be kidding you and myself if I said it was easy. The work, yes. I enjoyed what I was doing. Navigating the day-to-day of dealing almost exclusively with male colleagues proved especially challenging. For the most part, they tended to behave as if women weren’t present, or if they were, were of little significance or contribution.
Yet, I proved myself, and garnered reluctant respect. When I stepped into leadership with an entirely male team, things really heated up. They actively resisted being led by a woman. This was a global role, high powered, high profile, and highly stressful. That’s without the positively unhealthy team dynamics I had to deal with. Or the fact that those male team members were being paid more than I…
“I only wish I’d had you as my coach
When I was in the corporate world.”
This, from a woman who is now running her own successful business. Looking back on my years in the corporate world, I could so easily have said the same. Wishing I knew then what I know now.
I often wonder what I might have accomplished, how I might have been a far more influential leader had I had access to Lead with Ease and Teams in Flow.
But I didn’t. And when the stresses of that role got too much for me; when I was teetering on the point of burn out, I took the courageous decision to leave.
And forge another career for myself. From the predominately male environment of my corporate career, I chose to support women leaders like you in dealing with the day-to-day biases, many unconscious, that still pervade the workplace.
That is now my passion. And my greatest wish for you is that you discover how to lead courageously, authentically and easily by owning and stepping fully into your natural strengths as a woman.

Get your team
In flow
Take the Talent Dynamics assessment and come to appreciate each and every member of your team — their natural talents and abilities, how they work in, and contribute to, the team. When they are in flow, they lift the entire team. Yet, out of flow, they demotivate not only themselves, but also those around them.
When each member of your team plays to their natural strengths and talents, and appreciates the role other team members are playing, the team builds trust — in themselves and in one another. They begin to play as a team, collaborating effectively and encouraging creativity and innovation. As the levels of collaboration rise, the team becomes more productive and engaged. They come to love what they do, and are a joy to work with.
Client Testimonials
I have worked with Almira for several months and I can see the trends changing. From an overwhelmed and confused woman juggling too many things at once, I am transforming into a balanced and organised business woman. What makes the biggest difference is consciousness of my weaknesses and strengths and true acceptance. Almira has a great talent to bring to the surface ideas and motivation. Our sessions are lighthearted and very supportive. I would recommend her to everyone, who needs to calm down the chaos in their life.

I feel very lucky to be working with you, Almira, because here I have a very wise woman, a very experienced person in life, a great humanitarian, a woman of vision, a woman who encouraged me as the fairly mature woman I am, to rock whatever I needed to rock, just rock it. I thought the process we went through helped me, let's not say to grow up, but to grow down. Back to being natural. Getting rid of the rubbish that you're carrying around with you.

Dr Almira Ross is not only one of the first female cutting edge engineers and business powerhouses, she’s also a deep intuitive that walks her talk in life and in business.
You’d be blessed to have her touch your business and life.

I think one of Almira's great strengths is the emphasis on the quantitative in the sales process. Just how important the numbers are, because you're always getting a percentage of the numbers.

I’m Brazilian and we show a lot of our appreciation by touching. So when I say I want to hug you, it has to do with your energy and your style. And the way you talk to us. It’s so calm that your sessions are a moment of peace in my life. It's so important for me because it’s so crazy out there. The rhythm we have in our meetings, that your style makes me stop. Reflect. There’s no rush here. It’s all about me. And that for me makes a huge difference.

I find your style very different to other coaching I’ve had. It is very calm and powerful. I think it’s different and good because I find it incredibly relaxing even though you’re covering quite challenging topics. You have the ability to provoke, but your style is incredibly relaxing and calm and kind actually. So I think that the effect it has on me is — it feels like you’re landing stuff that’s really making me think but not in a way that’s making me feel uncomfortable.
You have great insight. The way that you land things is sort of energising and exciting.

Avoid Burnout with a Sustainable Work Environment
Establish a Sustainable Work Environment and Avoid Burnout Amidst a tumultuous post-pandemic reorganisation at her company, one of my clients was promoted to a new position. Navigating the constant change and uncertainty has been challenging without the support of a fully operational team. To make matters worse, many talented people have left the organisation, leaving […]

Female Leader Juggle
When you do the female leader juggle — trying to juggle home and work life and everything goes awry… Only today, I read a post from a female leader whose child was ill. Her challenges so similar to those many women leaders face when we carry the dual responsibilities of work and home, trying to […]
Female Imposter Syndrome
Female Imposter Syndrome ‘Imposter syndrome’ as a term never really existed when I was in my last leadership roles. It’s a recent addition to our vocabulary. Used to describe a condition that has been with us — men as well as women — for millennia. So much so, that it is part of the human […]
Commitment
A few days ago I had a conversation with a strong female leader who struggled to commit fully to what she professed to care most about — her impact and legacy. And yet, without commitment, it’s unlikely she will ever realise her vision and make the contribution she so desires. This conversation prompted me to […]
