Background

About Natalie Pearce

Most workplace challenges aren’t about strategy - they’re about people. Dysfunctional team dynamics, misalignment, disengagement, and poor communication don’t just slow teams down; they derail progress entirely. I help founders, leaders, and operators fix the teamwork issues getting in the way of high performance. My workshops and keynotes are action-oriented, practical, and engaging - bringing people together to solve real problems in real time. No jargon. No fluff. Just learning that sticks and translates into better teamwork, leadership, and culture. With 8 years in workplace culture and leadership - spanning startups, scaleups, and global organisations - I’ve seen what works (and what doesn’t). As an ex-Head of Culture at a design agency, I’ve built high-performance cultures from the inside. I’ve worked with companies like ITV, Mastercard, Fidelity, Amnesty International, and fast-growing startups like Attest, Ophelos, Altruistiq, and Cognition. I’m also trusted by Virgin Startup, Imperial University, and Web Summit to deliver talks and workshops, and I’ve interviewed industry leaders like Joe Wicks, Simon Squibb, and Nicola Elliott. What sets me apart is my background in design thinking and experience design, which means I don’t just talk about leadership and culture - I design experiences that shift behaviours and get teams working better together, fast. And I make it fun, cos we all deserve a lol at work! If you’re looking for a speaker, facilitator or trusted advisor who blends insight, energy, and practical takeaways, let’s talk.
